@LUDENClassics There's an old lady in Harrogate who drives a BMW M5 Competition. I think she just went in with an amount of money to spend and that's all they had. It's a very nice shade of blue, perhaps that swung it for her...

I drove the tracking car for the cover feature on this month's @CARmagazine. Always slightly nerve-wracking, but worth it when the images look this good

As I'm contemplating starting racing in the near future, I thought I better find out about the costs and practicalities involved. Thanks Cameron Hawes, @750MotorClub @GarethEvansUK @racingmentor and the ever-helpful @toby_trice for their help.

@joncoupland Presumably that connection is why they were allowed to run the Laguna 2.0 in the touring car. The engine used did have to have some connection to the road car range.

I'm currently a DS 4 long-termer for @ParkersCars There's a lot to like about it, but I've found some irritations...

The top 4 here tells you a lot about what sort of country Andorra is...
Andorra’s wealth can be seen on its car market. Sales of PC+LCV totaled 2,379 units in 2024, making it one of the smallest in Europe. The total was down by 7% vs 2023. The top-selling car in 2024 was the Porsche 911. Porsche, 2nd most popular brand, only behind Mercedes!

By pure coincidence, I've been wondering about this recently. As it turns out, it looks pretty damn good. Possibly even better in the blue/yellow Rapidfit livery...
What could the MK1 Focus have looked like as a BTCC car in the early 2000s? 🔥

Spotted this delightful AC Aceca parked up in Harrogate recently (an Ace-based replica, I'm told). Clearly does races and rallies, looks wonderfully well-used. Seems it's pretty practical too. Wouldn't have thought you could two Retrievers in the boot...

Yes, I know it's filthy in the pictures, but there's absolutely no point cleaning a car during a Yorkshire winter.
