I scream about these being jingoist crap semi regularly and now this, I'm furious.

One year has been enough for all my cars to go wrong and none of them have been as exotic as a Ferrari

I love it and I don't care what anyone thinks. Gimme that light show. I want my spaceship. I'll drive by instruments if I have to. I don't even need a windscreen. It looks AWESOME. A nightclub without the people! That is what I want in a car now.

Stab in the dark but is this somewhere in Bristol?

I get to see these on the road. Usually driven by someone really old. They're, perhaps unsurprisingly, all but worthless.

It’s slower than my 20 year old, £500 golf. And range anxiety is a thing if you can only own one car and live semi rurally.

On a personal level, my buddies first gen Impreza. Fully built, full racing livery, 3mpg and used for commuting to work.

IT STINKS! IT STINKS!

First generation Citroen C3 has this too. I've never driven one, I found out from the passenger seat...

I know a guy called Dave drove a series 1 Land Rover down to Persia from Britain for the coronation of the Shah. When the dynamo went he called into Lucas at Delhi on the way, and they gave him a free dynamo because he was the first Brit to ever show up at the Delhi headquarters looking for parts. Interesting

I’ve had a MK4 GTi for something like 18 months. Third car, after a Ford Sierra and a Defender. It didn’t cost much at all but it’s been reliable, practical and fun. I named it Daisy for the leather interior. I’ll try to be concise.

Legit had to check this wasn't good photoshop/lukewarm satire.

95db? Loud? What?

All the dirt.

Ain’t got no airbags. I can steer with my feet if I like mo’fo.

A flawed test of a nonsensical cross section of broadly non-competing 4x4s? That’s what automotive journalism really needed. Thanks autocar. Maybe next time you could show me how fast a microwave is compared to a toothbrush when it comes to changing a tyre?

I’ve found a way to totally take the trouble out of the commitment issue. Do you wanna know what it is?

Your advice on roadkill is woefully lacking. Some animals, or “game”, need to be bled or even gutted at the roadside. Others do not. Without this information how do you expect to prepare women to face the harsh reality of life outside the family home?!

Had the throttle cable snap on my 1988 Ford Sierra whilst climbing a steep hill at 70mph. Managed to pull it the entrance of a farm to get out the speeding traffic but then ran out of momentum and didn’t have enough torque at idle to get it moving. Then the farmer turned up behind me with a bloody huge tractor and his

Here’s a good one; in my Land Rover the horn is on the end of one stalk and the windscreen washer on the end of the other. One time I was driving home very late when I had to pull over in a lorry park to clean tree sap off the windscreen, so I dipped my lights in advance and quietly pulled up by all the trucks.
