Bits & pieces mostly about current British-built vehicles. Plus some non British-built and personal stuff. Trying very hard to be humorous. Possibly too hard.

After 13 years of existence and a very quiet 2025/26, the site has gone through a major re-design and update and will be visible as soon as possible!
From a Grunadian post: "Labour MPs will push Burnham to back voting reform in first 100 days". Oh wait........

Midsummer production complete ✔️
Almost two years on from presenting Midsummer to the world, the 50th and final bespoke customer commission is now complete. Designed in collaboration with Pininfarina, the limited-run barchetta was conceived to celebrate our coachbuilding expertise and reinterpret the timeless Morgan silhouette.
Evolving the skills of our craftspeople and elevating the marque’s coachbuilding capability, Midsummer represents a landmark chapter in our story, creating its own legacy while helping to pave the way for future Morgan models.
Thank you to every Midsummer owner who helped shape the journey, and to the Morgan team whose skill and dedication — alongside our partners — brought this remarkable model to life 🤝

One of my favourite images of Bruce McLaren, a tribute from The Gulf Oil Corporation on the inside front cover of Motor Sport August 1970.
Provenance doesn't come much better than this. I wonder what was offered in 1975? They were certainly right about the last bit! @Ferrari @ListerLawrence
Those were the days, when you could buy a Lotus racing car on hire purchase. With Graham Hill demonstrating one too!
With all this mild, wet stuff around at the moment, I found this of my mother in the infamous winter of 62/63, when it started snowing on Boxing Day and didn't really thaw until March.
Behind these gates in the village lies a future classic, particularly in this spec. I just hope they've put some @Lanoguard on underneath!
Lovely ad from AC towards the end of 1960. nice quality graphics and layout of a model I'd never hear of. The two lower ones are more familiar.
