When cousins marry.

Someone needs to relaunch Iso. Maybe a rebodied Maserati?

Assembled in the UK. Made from local and imported components.

Commies drive manuals.

The GT40 is my favourite car design of all time. It looks like it was designed by Dr Hiram K. Hackenbacker. Full on 60s technoptimist futurism.

All the lights and switches are black and when they light up, they light up black.

Seems to me like he was on the wrong side of the road most of the time.

Should be OK as long as his tire pressure isn’t out by 1.5psi

“...he doesn’t seem to let that phase him...”

I was taking a piss alongside the Chief of the Air Force Academy (Australian version) and an engineering officer. We all finish, the Group Captain and myself go to the sinks to wash our hands and the ENGO walks straight out the door. The Grüpenfuehrer leans across and says “A gentleman always washes his hands.”

FYI in Australia we have the mix of controls that Doug mentioned. Australian made cars are indicators on right but Euros are still indicators on left.

I think sending a SR-71 into combat would be like running an AC Cobra at Le Mans. Awesome in terms of retro swagger but would finish about 12 hours behind the leaders.

Fascinating article as usual.

I think that if what we need in F1 is a revolution then the only way that is going to happen is to kill the King. None of the good ideas that everyone else in the world keep coming up with are going to happen whilst Bernie is running the show.

V10s are a compromise. 3l V12s! or V8s for that added hipster retro flavour.

This time for sure!

Where I live only suburbanites drive Jeeps. Everyone who actually drives in remote places drives a Toyota. They will get you there and back. If you drove a Jeep into the actual Outback, it would break down and you would die.

After the revolution these people will be the first up against the wall to be shot.

A Pontiac Aztec that won’t break down.
