It me! Lovely to don lycra and tag along with team Ford again for @RideLondon 100 this year. Two weeks on and I've just about recovered...
Sometimes 2 wheels are better than 4.
Another year as title partner of @RideLondon, and we couldn’t be prouder. Thank you to everyone who came out and rode, cheered or volunteered 👏

Anyone fancy discounted Monaco Historique tickets? My brother's no longer able to go and has a pair going - grandstand B Sat, grandstand O Sun

Right, who wants an R53 Mini Cooper S, or knows someone who does?
Good stuff:
- Factory LSD
- Milltek stainless catback
- PS4s
- Recent-ish new clutch
Less good:
- Some cosmetic imperfections
- Air-con doesn't work
- Few advisories on the last MOT

A brilliant car I'd have happily kept for many more years, but it's time for something new (and van-shaped...)
Go well, Yeti!
The non-project project car. Skoda Yeti CR. Manual, diesel, AWD. UN-spec white. Known past two owners @theseoldcars and @matt_201 … you can probably see where this is going already… 😇🤪 #steelwheels

I'm still on the hunt for a VW up! for a shoot in Suffolk on Tuesday - can anyone assist? Just needs to be post-facelift (2016 on) and not a GTI. Involves limited, slow driving and only need it for 1-2 hours. Free cooked breakfast, mileage and my eternal gratitude included!
Anyone on here own a VW up! (ideally fairly new and non-GTI) and available for an Auto Express shoot on 21 March in Suffolk?
I drove nearly 400 miles in a new Golf R today and only accidentally pressed R mode instead of a cruise control function two times. I feel like I deserve a prize of some sort. Proper buttons maybe?

No shortage of photos in the 'dirty M3 Touring press car carrying stuff' genre on Twitter this week, but I'm hoping mine are the first to involve a washing machine and mountain bikes
