Our (really my daughter's Mini) is probably due to go to the great scrapyard in the sky before long, so I've been looking for another one for her until she gets up and running in a job now she's finished Uni and her teacher training. Came across this Mini and it just amused me that the advert...

No, the wife is using it as her runabout. I listed it on "Motorway.co.uk" for them to offer to their 7,500 dealers....and didn't get a single offer! They wanted me to list it at a stupidly low price, that meant I would have spent the same amount on a Fiesta of identical age & mileage! seemed a...

A White 15 plate Gran Turismo passed me this evening, followed about half a mile later by @Lozzer in his QP - I did flash but I was in the VW, so you probably wondered why?!

Mr Dyson certainly does.

White QP on the outskirts of Kusadasi, Turkey.

That dealer is in Keighley and has the worst reviews I've ever seen. I looked at a BMW they had on Autotrader but thankfully my spidey-sense wondered why it was so cheap, compared to identical cars elsewhere. I wouldn't touch a car from them.

Bronze coloured QP (GR14 MAS) on A595 in Whitehaven this morning. Did the usual of being about to wave until I remembered I wasn't in the Maserati. D'oh!

Exactly. I was messing about on Autotrader having a "what if money was no object" look through some of the cars the other day and I couldn't find one Ferrari or Aston etc that I thought was really beautiful. Too much going on, lines and details added where there was no need.

I also had the Ghibli MOT'd today. I got my dates mixed up and thought I had longer, so just booked it in same day at Kwikfit, knowing it didn't need anything as had a check over at service a couple of weeks ago. The sneeky bu***rs marked the tyres down as "close to legal limit" though, so that...

A bearded gentleman in a 65 plate Passione Blue Ghibli on the A595 in South Cumbria today. Was about to flash/wave then realised I was in an MG hire car!!

I read this and managed to miss Chris' quote about the GT S and it's stitching. I thought he was just a vey straight speaking chap with an eye for the ladies @Lozzer . :oops:

Cars with number plates that must be worth more than the car they adorn are favourite form of puzzlement to me. Saw this one today. Would it be a family heirloom that has been passed down to a younger member with a bit of a naff car?

I think Liam Gallagher used to sing about her.

I remember hearing a parent shouting of their feral child “See-Anne…..come here…..See-Ann..”. The kid was called Sian.

So the AA engineer couldn’t diagnose as the software in the car was too new for his equipment. The guy from the fleet company says that it’s the 3rd Tiguan they’ve dealt with this week that has developed faults within a couple of days of delivery.
