Planned to rent a car in Ireland, rental company wanted to bugger me over a barrel and put a 3000 Euro hold on my credit card. I ended up borrowing a car from family. Fuck Irish rentals

The one you linked has 37,400.

Say what you want about Donald Trump, when he wants some groping done, he does it himself. The Pope delegates the job to underlings

I have to confess, it’s impressive because of what it costs and it’s pedigree, but not the best looking car on the planet - the roof is awkward looking. That being said, there’s a wonderful simplicity to the mechanicals under the hood - and look at all that space!

Gone with the wind

Well, it’s gone for good, so. I suspect Donnie hasn’t had a BM in years, considering what he eats

and the storage areas in the doors and center console have been removed

I was going there, but you did it way better

Regenerative braking - essentially “engine braking” here, will apply to the rear wheels only - good for slowing down, not so hot for active braking. The brakes themselves will be original

I have restomodded the TR6 in various relatively minor ways, with little thought about maintaining a way back to original. If someone wants to restore it after me, that’s their quest, not my concern. But the fact that a mod as major as this in the E Type is reversible is just amazing to me, although I suspect that

The guy who invented and sells “Neuticles” for de-nutted dogs is a multimillionaire. Is there a market here for fake tailpipes for converted electrics?

Can’t. Be. Driven. On. The. Street.

When one of my kids asks for something unreasonable, I counter with “Well, I’d like two Porsches and World Peace, so I guess we’re both stuck”. Pisses them off endlessly :-)

Of course I was - a ‘19 Z4 would make a solid used buy around 2030!!! :-)

Now we just have to find a super-lite car......

Just down the highway from Cleetus, I imagine

It’s those fookin’ bears, Man, they’re everywhere....

That was my principal objection when I saw an F Type roadster in the flesh - it was very large, with just the driver’s Noddy-like head sticking up over the sill. The TR6 might be shite, but at least I can rest my elbow on the door
