Such a tragedy. They had barely recovered after the terrible accident involving a truck carrying 40 tonnes of salt.

I’m in the red SLK with my Revs mate Nigel. We’re going to try and miss fewer turns this year.

This 1934 Aston Martin MkII is a wonderful thing.

Have got a soft focus setting or do you need to polish your lens? (oo-er)

Well he wouldn't want to ruin his appetite.

Perfect winter runabout. #Twingo

If a mental Twingo isn't your bag, how about a two grand L322? Same seller. Mate of a mate. #whatcouldpossiblygowrong

I know there are several people in my feed who admire silly cars, small cars, quick cars and French cars.

Which leads me to think some of you would love this silly, small, quick, French hedge missile.

There's a pretty niche styling clue on this one, which I didn't spot until afterwards.

My knowledge on stuff older than me is patchy at best.

I've been quiet recently & because I enjoy puzzling, I decided to create a couple.

Today I've released two web-based daily word games, 𝑻𝒘𝒆𝒏25𝒊𝒗𝒆 and 𝑯𝒂𝒏𝒈𝒓𝒂𝒎.
