Hello you. What have we got here then? Well, there a few pics of the new Lotus Electricalsocket, in case you haven't seen that yet. Then we have Roy Orbison looking like a fancy dress version of himself, a delightful 1955 Cadillac, Richard with Elisa Artioli (and resented teddy bear sweater), Brut Spowwwwwaaaaataaaaahhh, those Mendurance capsules, and Jonny's Insight coming home. Now some links...

Wonder if anything in this is new to a former/current Insight owner. https://www.hemmings.com/stories/article/the-gto-of-mpg

Off the back of this podcast, I had to get a bottle of the good ol' classic brut. Not disappointed in the slightest, lovely stuff.

Darryl Mac

I agree - deserves more

My wife ordered an Hyundai Ioniq 5 in November, with delivery estimated for March. Now apparently coming in August. They haven’t said which year.

Not enough love for this comment!

Nick Davies

Brut Spowat implicates the existence of Brut Evoque, full-size Brut, and Brut Velar. Actually, Brut Velour *does* probably exist somewhere.

Brendan McAleer

If you think the wait for the E-Up is bad, my other half ordered an electric mini about 6 weeks ago. Just got confirmation of delivery, February 2023.

I’ve got Brut Special Edition or SE, which is a two pack of deodorant and aftershave, I would like to upgrade to the Sport but it’s just to pricey

James Pham

I think the version of I drove all night that Richard referred to as being about the M25 was by Roy Orbital.

Ciaran Challis

Is Brut “Sport Style” a bit like “ST-Line” or “Type-S”

Richard Major

I saw Roy Orbison at Birmingham Town Hall in June 1963. It was his first national tour here. One of the support bands was an outfit called The Beatles.

was just coming on here to write this, beaten to it otsot lol

Roy Orbison owned one of those awful faux 1930's Excalibur Roadsters so beloved of musicians of dubious taste in the 70's. No wonder he drove all night, probably had the turning circle of a supertanker. Recently it was sold by Matthewsons Auctions and was on TV's Bangers & Cash

Cornish Rider

Re-listening today and when it comes to 50s cars I would find it hard to resist a Ford Fairlane 500 Skyliner, not the best looking car overall but the full retracting hard top is just incredible. Wouldn't want to be anywhere near it if the hydraulics failed.

Matt Tester

I don't know how may Honda Insights there are in NZ, suspect few, but dropped my car (not a Honda) off for a service and pulled out into traffic behind one! Probably skewed the odds as was near a big Honda dealer but even so!

Robin Capper

Does that bottle of Brut say "Parfum Preston"?
