Didn't an American company buy the rights to the programme or something like that. Too many American cars for my liking so stopped watching.

They did a fecking Capri last week, an American spec one that looked even worse than the sh1t we had over here, federal bumpers, smog reduction kit etc.

that might explain it, I do know that edd china had a big falling out with producers about cutting corners, liked edd quite a clever engineer and had some good hacks

Well I had an enjoyable afternoon. I believe she was a real lady but I had no inclination to confirm her biology. Never even heard of Maserati either!

Indeed: Velocity

They own pretty much all the Dicovery car programs, believe they have their own channel no: Discovery Velocity.

Initially I liked Ant but now the polish has worn off I miss the Ed way.

Nothing stays the same for ever and it had a good run.

Let’s just hope Ant and Mike don’t start having faux bust ups....like the rest of the Velocity suitors.

Morning all, a new teenager in the house and the idea that they wake up later is wrong - 4:00am and full of excitement

Morning you lot. Good to hear the Andy K we know and love is back with us :) Still (mostly) dry here.
Some pottering. Mrs C wants to go for a run, then we have tickets to Glass booked.

Have a great day, all

I was dry most of December C so did my bit then...Or that's what I'm saying anyway. 3 bottles of wine in a month and a half is unheard of in the Keedwell household. Three a week at least normally. Not going back to that though as its been good for my health....

Hello everyone!
Nice to see a frost out there. Various things today with various potential orders. I'll see what happens when I get there.
HapPea Sunday!

Good morning all. A very chilly start at north Weald this morning. Note to self , it’s -3 so Michelin or Pirelli doesn’t really matter lol
Have a good day all.

It’s a shivery frosty start out on the coast as well. Yesterday we had a slithery trot out to Finchingfield, which was a perfect way to be reminded why a rear-driven sports car with PZeros on greasy winter roads either needs to stay at home or have new boots. But it was fun. I need to have a liberal squirt round underneath with ACF50 to protect delicate parts from salt

Less helpfully, Mrs Crud has spotted the car’s digital speed readout and is now able to see exactly how fast we’re going whenever she wants to. Great.
