    I noticed that too.

    Looks like my rear hub bearing is broken.

    Maybe I shouldn't have gone over the rumble strips on every lap yesterday.

    Fake exhaust tips. Because 'Sporty SUVs' need to be a thing I guess.

    At least this one is well hidden:



    Most of them are just tragic.

    It's weirdly pointless isn't it. Just don't have anything there. I wonder whether they think people expect rear sections to look a certain way, so just keep them 'traditional'.

    It's not just that, the 'fancy hole' is made to look like the real exhaust. The usual fake, vain bollocks nowadays.

    I remember the Civic Type R from 2006 being one of the first to have fancy looking tips then upon closer inspection you'd see a regular pipe within it.

    If you're going to do it, do it properly I say.

    My car is going to be recalled.

    According to the letter 'the engine's plastic inlet manifold may melt and deform. In a worst case scenario this may cause a localised engine bay fire to develop.'

    Sounds fun.

    What nostrils?

    About to invest in a new car. Might go second hand for the first time. Definitely HP rather than PCP anyway. I'd say about 15k is the budget. Eyeing up 17ish plate Focus ST-2s or 3s at the minute. Any suggestions?

    I’ve been offered what seems like an incredible deal on a Kuga (£191 a month). Got two weeks to test drive one so the wife can okay it. Got a busy fortnight though.

    There's someone who drives a McLaren F1 here (never seen them, always see the car parked around town though) that has a blue badge displayed.

    I'd be amazed if anyone who is actually eligible for a blue badge could get into it.

    It's probably for mental illness parking a ten million quid car around town.

    True but I'd imagine he's bought it off someone/constantly borrowing it from a family member.

    Saw it again and decided to look its reg up as I had doubts it was an actual F1.

    It's only a 570GT.

    Not really sure why. Doesn't look great, but doesn't look bad either. You are still getting ridiculous performance for lol money (starting at under $60k, they say.)

    Yar it's a 3. 320i 2.0 Sport. Took it for a test drive earlier and I'm extremely wet for it. Can't wait for Weds.

    Lorry tipped over here and it's turned half the town into a car park. Police have had to close two roads.

    A homemade motorcycle stopped on the M25 was described by a traffic officer as the "most unusual vehicle" he had apprehended in 26 years.

    Another roads policing officer called the vehicle a "homemade electric motorcycle" which was "made from bits of balsa wood and duck tape".



    Stunning.
