Top gear weren’t the only ones. Hopefully he sends the 330d on to Alpina and lets them do some magic to it.

Get something pre-war.

I’ve always wondered what would take over from fox hunting when it comes to rich people larking about.

Fast and comfortable so great for travelling great distances rapidly and being parked at the side of the road is par the course for an old Jag so you won’t look suspicious. Also copious amounts of dead cow & trees plus various leaking fluids will fool any drugs dog.

Some headlines from The Daily Mail if you are lucky enough to be ignorant of them:

They don’t need to. The British mags don’t care about whether or not the car is sold here it’s all about whether or not the manufacturers will lend them a car or not. The Z06 and GT350 will probably be in contention next year.

Man I would love a highlight reel from the Pilot’s POV during things like this. Being inside a Typhoon on an intercept course of a Tanker being escorted by Rafales which then break off to dogfight with the Typhoons and then seeing Raptors on the horizon as reinforcements. It would be like Ace Combat in reality...

Steven Emerson? I didn’t expect to see you here.

Before reading this I was all gun-ho for the UK to get involved in Syria but now, I don’t know. There really is no plan to deal with ISIS is there? What difference will the RAF & presumably the SAS at some point make on the situation? Will this make my country a higher profile target? Will this just be a repeat of…

Seat Leon Cupra 280 ST. Fastest estate car to lap The Ring and it comes from the factory with orange wheels.

Getting? We got it ages ago, back when Fallout came out. I’m gonna guess you got your press releases mixed up since this is what we got today:

I’m just hoping they burn the old format and do something completely new. To be honest I hope they just bring what they do in TG Mag to TV. I want this to be an out and out car show.

16 episodes, huh. I’m not sure why but suddenly I have alot more confidence in the new show. Probably because Top Gear was at its best when it was more than 8 episodes a series.

1. Do you even lift bro?

In light of recent events I wonder if Cameron will get Parliament to side with him over strikes in Syria. The attacks in Paris will certainly have helped his case but giving rising tensions with Russia... it will be very interesting to see the outcome.

Nah mate, it was seriously banned over large parts of the world. India for example banned them from flying in their airspace which killed the Singapore & Australia routes.

Of course it doesn’t it’s Concorde but given we just splurged an extra £12Bn on stuff we either don’t need or shouldn’t have needed to buy in the first place they might as well put in something nice for the people footing the bill.

Bah, balls to costs. I’m more than happy for my taxes to go to getting a Concorde back in the air heck they could sacrifice that stupid garden bridge to raise the funds and I’m sure no one would object.

Would of been an ideal opportunity to bring a Concorde out of retirement and make that the Royal/Government Jet. Also I do know that Concorde was banned from the vast majority of the planet but what is diplomatic immunity for if not to blow out the ear drums of foreigners with sonic booms.
