They missed a huge opportunity here. They could have come up with a brand - let’s call it E-plus. Then this could have been the Ford Pony E-plus. The F-150 could have been the F-150 E-plus or whatever.

Take your stars.

I know I’m supposed to be excited, but instead I’m bored. What’s happened?

Correction: Solberg and Johnston.

It took me a really long time to work out why this was considered skeevy. Every car I’ve been in has had seats that recline just fine and were perfectly good for business time.

Ferrari should go out while they’re on top. Build a F-999 Superspeciale, sell the thousand of them, and declare victory.

In the early 2000s I was new in Australia and a student, I used to hitchhike up and down the Hume to Sydney, past the Belanglo State Forest. I had no idea.

Porsche does not recommend exceeding any speed limits.

I’ve only ever watched the ABC videos, but I love how casual he is when he’s presenting a show. It’s like he’s talking directly with you, rather than to you. That’s a rare talent in television.

Keep it on the track.

I was once hitchhiking in the middle of nowhere, and got dropped off at an intersection near a maximum security state jail. I stood there for a good hour until I got picked up, meantime I had prison wardens driving by and looking me up and down.

The 90s HiAce was the Hilux of vans. Immensely practical and able to do almost anything. I can’t tell you if the last two generations are as good, since I haven’t driven them.

That really bothers me. They came so close and they blew it.

We grew up on the back seats of 9-seater Nissan and Toyota vans. They all had sliding windows, and until recently I wasn’t aware that push-out was a thing. It should never have been a thing.

The motor is made almost entirely from magnetic copper windings. With a magnet big enough.... this might just work.

I drove that once, taking my Dad to the cemetery. Worst drive of my life.

I’ve seen the Fast and the Furious 9 (“The Finest of the Furious”).

More electric cars sold than manuals. That’s the factoid that makes my head spin at the moment.

I think if I went back to 1999 and told them that this is what sedans look like in the future, everyone would be pretty happy.
