Does this mean I need to stockpile my martini branded Sure 48hr anti perspirant?

You clearly forgot John Player Special (that Lotus used in the early 2010s), Parmalat and Camels from that list.

Last years Sauber reminded me of Rothmans

I’m surprised to see mention of the K series (which was a brilliant engine) on the internet without mentioning head gasket failure. I remember seeing one of these in the early 00's and thinking it looked amazing and back then 177hp seemed like a lot. It still is impressive for a na 1.8l.

The front end in that is amazing. The engine is right up by the firewall and the front has a sort of tunnel.

Do Renault sell a RWD Alaskan? The truck is based on is available RWD and Renault does sell in markets that buy RWD pickups.

 My dad told me that in the early 80s new cars would have the lights going off all the time and his solution was to remove the bulbs. The lights were almost always a false alarm and he could tell by his own senses in those days if something was wrong.

My dad ripped them off his 407 for the she reasons. They always thought there was a problem.

I’m pretty sure minis have been built outside of the UK before. Maybe not the mini hatch but all the countryman were built outside of the UK and the original mini was built in Australia, South Africa and Italy and possibly other places.

It’s a shame no one here buys cars like this anymore. When I went to school every other dad had a 406 but I could probably count all the 508s I’ve seen in the real world on one hand. I really wish they’d do a coupe and bring back the v6.

 Same up here in the UK. The only place you really see it is airports for long term parking and if the news is to be believed they’re probably dumping your car in a street somewhere or driving around in it and it normally costs more than a taxi.

The order is alphabetical? Colours first then manufacturers with foreign I’m guessing included just for anything they missed though it is weird that station wagon is in the manufacturer list then they start the alphabet again for compact and convertible (which aren’t in alphabetical order)

 More gears is a sign of a bad engine. If you need more gears it means your rev range isn’t enough.

I kind of hope he fails because I don’t like the guy but at the same time I hope he doesn’t as I’m sure this failing Will be bailed out by the government and won’t effect him personally.

RS Fords have to have short runs to keep them special. It was the same with the previous 2 generations and the escorts and Sierras before hand.

You boys missed a trick. Surely the answer is a hearse.

If you account for inflation that civic probably cost more in 77 than a type R costs now.

 It’s a shame Murray Walker is too old now. He is the ultimate racing commentator and his pairing with James Hunt back in the day was perfection.

BBC coverage was brilliant. Problem with Sky is the cost. You can’t just buy F1 so you have to have the basic entertainment package and then a sports package, Quick Google suggests it would cost more than £500 a year on top of your tv licence (£130ish per year). Sure you’d also very loads of other tv for that but if…

I’ve been tempted by hearse ownership many times. It’s like the perfect compromise between car and van. Always fancied having one with a mild camper conversion.
