Workbench needed..... nice wooden one. :D

Is it true that the Pixel phones still receive Android OS upgrades as soon as they come out?? How long for?

If you’re Singering it, surely you’ll be fitting an engine with 3 times the power-output... :D

Now THAT is a damn good idea.....

I “think” that means that you can drive it without a driver’s licence in France.

Yes - in France you can drive small, low-power vehicles without a licence. The reason being that even if you had a licence and lost it (speeding/drunk-driving etc), the state is not allowed to ‘ruin your life’ by removing your means of…

Generally speaking, the French love bikes. Something to do with the fact that they’re allowed to ride 50cc (< 10bhp) bikes at age 14, so virtually EVERYONE has ridden a bike at some point in there lives and appreciates it.

I may have been misinformed, and the info I read may have simplified damage limitation and force management in the…

Had one before, would have one again.

The 5.0 litre Mustang cabrio I hired last summer (in the UK) had air-conditioned seats. (I never knew this was a thing). They were independently controlled, separately to the main cabin air-conditioning.

I like that.

This location is the DUMBEST place to put ANY sort of access.

I’d LOVE to have a 3 side doors + rear hatch XJ! (is there an official term for this configuration? Torch?)

Yup - nice idea, but very much some missed opportunities to make it REALLY good.  Not the best use of space and definitely done on a budget.

I worked in vehicle manufacture in 1999-2000 (3rd party lighting), and one project with Ford led to an entertaining post-meeting discussion about QA.
