Rest in peace. I was thrilled to get to meet him once at Goodwood.

Plus rig up a pair of rubber bands, and 4th gear becomes your handbrake... sorry, E-brake.

I, for one, welcome our new ant overlords.

Save your money and wait for the next recession - the cost of overpriced nostalgia will be one of the first things to fall.

If you drive it like there’s an unsecured hand grenade rolling round on the floor you’ll have no troubles ;-)

THIS makes me want a La-Z-Boy.

I thought the same thing! It’d take a masochist to keep repairing and maintaining airbags. That said, Land Rover owners are known for enjoying a degree of self-guided suffering on occasion. [Had one once, would gladly have one again.]

What if the President was flying an A-12 Oxcart?

Because it offers the best long-range capability of any US-built passenger aircraft and airline seat-mile economics aren’t the decisive factor.

Rare and desirable aren’t the same thing – ask someone who has a disease researchers haven’t come up with name for yet.

Morgan! =D

When I saw coverage saying things like ‘rally’, ‘vintage Ford’ and ‘burns to ground’, my first thought was the RS200 crash in ‘86 that killed Michel Wyder. So I’m glad Block and Gelsomino had a much better outcome!

If you’ve ever started a carburetor fed light aircraft you’ll feel right at home.

Driving diagonally up a dune dramatically increases your risk of a rollover.

Michèle Mouton will be herein referred to as “The Previous Danica Patrick”.

It wasn’t the cleanest of passes but #4 was undoubtedly the faster car. Fighting for victory on the last lap of the race, the race leader leaves the door open... I think it’s fair enough that #4 had a go. Put it another way, if they were touring cars no-one would bat an eyelid, and you see rougher passing in F1 even…

There are ‘nuclear’ bombs (fission bombs which break apart really big, unstable atoms like uranium or plutonium), and ‘thermonuclear’ bombs (fusion bombs that shove hydrogen atoms together to build helium atoms). They’re all atomic bombs, so the terminology can be a little vague.

I’m guessing the radio operator took his headphones off for the blast ;-)
