Nonsense. Donkervoort is Dutch, not Swedish.

They start a vineyard in New Zealand?

Per Wikipedia and IMDB, yes.

I read the headline in a bit of a rush and thought it said “Bytor.” It didn’t, though, so I’m not going to worry about snow dogs.

...and failing, I think. Oh well, they all look fairly similar. Trying another method:

There was one of these at British Car Day at Larz Anderson Park in Brookline, MA, last June. Attempting to include image...

Shouldn’t Wiesmann be Veesman rather than Viceman (which would be Weismann)? Is it just that Clarkson has only limited willingness to pronounce German names properly?

I have no pictures, but many years ago I saw an elderly Ferrari coupe—late 1950s vintage, at a guess—parked on a street in a small but very prosperous rural Virginia town. And yesterday I saw a new red NSX parked on the Belmont-Watertown line in Massachusetts (notable, as far as I’m concerned, for being the first one…

“Need for swede?” What do British rutabagas have to do with it?

These are not uncommon, relatively speaking, in the Boston area. As yomamma219 says, some people carry their kids in them (helmeted, of course).

As is no doubt clear from the replies, it depends. Is your partner ready and willing to learn (by which I do not mean “Okay, if you really think it’s a good idea”)? How’s your patience level?

Well, the driver’s sure keeping it on the bubble.

My father-in-law found a copy of that book at a yard sale and gave it to me, as he tends to do when he finds books about cars or motorcycles. I like how often Stein includes his own experience with the various cars—of course, he was buying and driving them when they were just used cars, not classics.

Myself, I’m a fan of Donal Skehan (who’s also done a fair amount of broadcast television, though you need to convince the computer you’re either in Ireland or the UK for most of it). Besides making a wide range of very tasty dishes in his videos, he’s written a number of cookbooks (only one of which is available in a…

I was at the dealer today to have recall work done on my 5 (liftgate strut mounts) and sat in a Miata RF. Seems like a nice car, but like previous ones, the windshield header is at eye level (I’m 6'3" and fairly long-waisted). Not only that, but the rearview mirror is positioned such that it blocks my view of the…

You mean I have to cram my wife and kids into that thing?

It appears our sons have similar taste in trousers.
