I think this was the one I owned for the least amount of time. 6 months. My abiding memories are the rattly interior, how slow it was and the utterly uncharismatic engine. I know many people love them. But it did nothing for me at all.

Every year, entirely accidentally, we fail to put at least one Christmas decoration in the loft.
This perky chap has sat on this windowsill since January. He's finally relevant again today.

Couple of green cars from today's trip to Marlborough.
I hate the black wheels on the Cayman but the colour is fabulous.
And in stark contrast, old money Lexus IS200, appropriately driven by a spritely lady of advanced years. One for you @talesofanalfa.bsky.social

Just amazing how fucking useless the Labour party (which has a MASSIVE majority, in case you needed reminding) is at politics. Spineless. Pointless. And gifting power to the fascists.

That requires an E32 and yes you can bet that when I get to 735 it'll be another E32!

Lovely 944S2 cruising along the M4 earlier.
Really must get one of these one day.

Clean.
Pointlessly so, on the basis that I am taking it somewhere tomorrow and it's going to rain, because of course it is.
But for now... it's very clean.

Could this be a metaphor for something?
Perhaps even a portent?
Or maybe it's just a completely knackered Niva decomposing on someone's drive, somewhere in North Wales.

I spent a highly invigorating 45 mins driving around in the Fairthorpe this afternoon. It does not enjoy bad road surfaces and the gearbox isn't always the easiest, but god this thing is fun. Hard work definitely but so much fun.

Wandered over to Bristol this evening with @chrisfm52e.bsky.social to see one of my musical heroes, Glenn Hughes. 74 years old and his voice is genuinely still as good as it was 50 years ago. Absolutely superb. I had a tear in my eye when he finished with Burn.

Took the Thema out for a leg stretch earlier. Only picture I took was this.
Very much the car's natural habitat, in fairness.
