Show notes 199
Added 2024-02-25 18:01:00 +0000 UTCIn pictures this week we start, of course, with Sam the Eagle from The Muppet Show. Then we have the weird James car wash, the original and excellent but wheel mismatched 911 S/T, the new Dacia Spring after Jonny asked the designer to take off the wheel trims, the Tesla Model Y with and without wheel trims, Chris Boardman’s Lotus aero helmet, evidence that the VW Golf Rolling Stones and Bon Jovi are not just strange things we’ve made up, and Spowart Drive in Dunfermline.

It was an end of row seat, that’s all I can remember. Really gutted I couldn’t make it down for it

2024-02-28 07:54:20 +0000 UTCHubcaps, maybe. Mismatched on purpose like the Porsche? Absolute cock vomit

2024-02-28 02:34:05 +0000 UTCSorting the alarm system at a customers house recently, beside the control panel was an old newspaper from 2004, I lost a good 10min browsing the dealer ads and classifieds.

2024-02-27 21:35:34 +0000 UTCI think a mismatched hubcap on a d-spec car is sometimes quite endearing, particularly if reinforced with a cable tie.

2024-02-27 09:17:17 +0000 UTCMismatched wheels are only ever acceptable on drift cars, otherwise they look complete and total gash. I will die on this hill.

2024-02-26 18:45:02 +0000 UTCI think the market needs a Toyota Mike

2024-02-26 12:35:41 +0000 UTCI think the Lotus bike carbon chassis was made by Reynard Composited in Brackley,

2024-02-26 10:01:04 +0000 UTCMy dad had one - XRH178J. To be honest, it was terrible. I reckon the James car wash would hace slowly flushed it down the drain.

2024-02-26 09:59:25 +0000 UTCI stopped paying attention to the podcast whilst looking around for the approaching emergency vehicle only to find out it’s part of the cast
Jack Jennings
2024-02-26 09:15:14 +0000 UTCThe mention of the Golf Mk3 ‘Bon Jovi’ reminds me of the best Lemmy quote ever. When asked what he thought of glam rock sensation Bon Jovi, he replied, “Jon Bon Jovi..? Jon Bon Bastard!!”

2024-02-26 08:37:13 +0000 UTCMy Grandpa had a Sunbeam Rapier, like in the ‘James’ picture—I thought it was pretty swish!
Peter Asquith
2024-02-26 00:39:45 +0000 UTCI’v always wanted a chassis wash installed in my garage to get the shite off in winter…. Of course I don’t actually HAVE a garage, but thats besides the point

2024-02-25 20:08:34 +0000 UTCVery worrying that Mr Porter has the Langoliers eating up his past.
Tom Lanigan
2024-02-25 19:50:27 +0000 UTCEvery journey in the Bon Jovi golf “Ooooooh! We’re halfway there…”
David Carss
2024-02-25 18:38:51 +0000 UTCYou missed a trick by not showing the Rolling Stones upholstery here. On that (in)side of things. When the things in question are crap '90s Golfs.
