There was at least one Y10 around Cork back in the day. I remember thinking it must have been in an accident because the black tailgate didn't match the rest of the car (that's just how they came).

I can only speak from Assetto Corsa experience but the Mk1 Escort is easily the best drift car in the game! 😛

That's not what I thought. 😶

Believe

I test drove an Inster recently. I thought it was decent (though not nearly as good to drive as the Renault 5) but I found the speed limit detection absolutely infuriating. If I ever buy one the forward-facing cameras are going in the bin on day one.

Yep, that blows my mind too. For some reason the story that always sticks in my mind about these is that Bernie Ecclestone had one of the first ones and almost immediately had the wheels nicked off it.

When you've gotta go to work but you're still high af.

The clap hand wipers only disappeared in '64 to be fair.

I wasn't interested until I spotted that it's automatic and has a towbar. Now I'm interested. 😁

Pocono?

I prefer this to the old one. 😶

@mattfd.bsky.social there is some majestic tea-shelfery in this one! 😁

Eggs-cellent work! 😁

Oh wait, I can tell @sniffpetrol.com about it.

I was today years old when I realised that the boot badges were different for the first year of Maestro production. Not exactly sure what I'm going to do with that information, but it's good to know. 🙂

The outrageous ugliness of the Office of Public Works proposal for Blackpool. Reality on left. Proposal on right. Bloody hideous and awful. #cork

I hadn't actually seen the infamous 'brand teaser' video until just now. The sledgehammer scene is a clear link back to Apple's legendary '1984' ad. Well played, Jaguar, well played.

Oh I just always assumed these were hatchbacks. Mind slightly blown. 🤯

@blindboyboatclub.bsky.social give this a shout on the podcast will ya?

Hmmm, nope, never knew this existed until just now! 😁

Blue Trabant 601

Yes absolutely. This silly little thing always puts a smile on my face. 😁

This is why we follow you. Actually it isn't, it's for the weird car stuff, but this is good too. 😊

Excel-lent spot! 😁

@misshubnut.bsky.social any progress on that front? 😛

@blindboyboatclub.bsky.social Pub recommendation for England: The Yew Tree Inn in Cauldron, Staffordshire (between Birmingham and Manchester). It's hands-down my favourite pub in the world. Have a pie (pretty much the only thing on the menu). It's amazing.
