    Classic Travelling Luggage 3 suitcase set for Granturismo

    For sale, a brand new, unused, fitted luggage set for a Granturismo. Navy with black trim. Bought for a road trip that never happened, thanks to Covid, and I am now selling my car to pursue other things. Fit neatly in the boot, using nearly all the space, with just a little room left for coats...

    Caterham/Westfield

    I had one for about 4 years in my mid twenties. Drove it from London to my parents in Chichester (about 70 miles) every other weekend pretty much, all year round, in any weather, with no roof, doors or windscreen. Just wore a lot of clothes in the winter! Took it to Le Mans too, which was fairly...

    Vee Power Sunday Goodwood - March 1st

    I'll be there (circuit pass, not grid) in the GT.

    SM GTS Brakes

    Of course, and I hope I didn't come across as being too impatient. If I decide I need to suck up OEM prices, would it mess up your numbers enormously if I dropped off the list?

    SM GTS Brakes

    Hi there. Sorry if I've missed an update, but is there any news on a delivery date? My warped front disc is getting quite annoying, and it would be great to get this job done over the winter. Thanks

    SM Apple CarPlay / Android Auto

    i Mine switched over to the new version of Android Auto when it was introduced recently, without me needing to do anything, if that's any comfort?

    Camping

    Mine? 2014 Sport (auto) in Blu Oceano with Bianco Pregiato. Definitely looks best in the evening light. Rather dirtier now after three days in a dusty field. Job for this weekend.

    Camping

    Yep, here to answer the burning questions every potential sports car buyer is asking... I actually surprised myself, but it has made the case for a two week European trip next year being more than do-able (with no tent and more pants ) so a double win.

    Camping

    Mainly posting this as it's the sort of thing I was researching 18 months ago, when I was looking to buy. Took the GT, family, 5 man tent, and all the gear camping for the long weekend. Fitted everything in the boot (admittedly I may have spent more on new super compact gear than it would have...

    Parking in Italian cities

    Thanks everyone. I'm not sure I'm much clearer, but I've got a year to ponder on it... To be clear, I don't expect to park right outside the Doumo(!) , so park and ride definitely an option.

    Parking in Italian cities

    I did go, a long time ago, while backpacking. This time around I might appreciate it a bit more, but will also have two small children being bored and annoying, so swings and roundabouts...

    Parking in Italian cities

    Ha! Replies so far reflecting nicely the conflicting voices in my head. Bus/train into the cities makes sense but still requires parking near a station, and not sure how safe that is either? I have no problem paying for high end parking but it's hard to judge what they're like from here...

    Parking in Italian cities

    For our 40ths next summer, a few friends and our families will be renting a villa in Tuscany, about 40km from Florence. Obviously the easiest thing to do would be to fly and hire a car, but I feel like it would be a missed opportunity to take the GT, and I'd spend the whole time wishing I had...

    SM GTS Brakes

    I'll take a set please. Slightly warped front offside disc which will need doing at some point. I think this is the current list, having added Russell (above) and myself. Was I meant to do that (version control etc?!) Thanks, James Moz1000 Doohickey Sam McGoo Wagons-Lits Jamesc69 Dickygrace...

    Our cars are so slow it’s like living in a black and white world

    This is it for me. Looks, sound, feel even just driving in traffic through town (which is usually at least half of any journey I make) keeps me happy. A faster, but less special car wouldn't do that for me. It's the same reason, when I previously needed an estate, that I had the C63, not an RS4...

    Maseratis - Spotted

    Med blue on a driveway in Sydenham/Penge this morning. Nice distraction as I was dragging my feet towards the end of a run.

    Apple Car Play - Maserati - Uodate

    Update: the stars aligned on Monday, and I managed to get this fitted, at home on the drive, by Prestige. So far, so good. I'm running Android Auto and it's pretty slick. Installation was neat and good value, especially for the convenience factor. I'd say my only slight disappointments are...

    Test drove an i3 over the weekend - my views on this points machine!

    On the Renault, even if you leave the sound on, it only kicks in below 20mph. Above that, it's silent (apart from wind noise, tyre noise, and shouting children)
