Factoid Extra: The 2nd-gen Victor (the FB), but the 1st sporty VX4/90 which this 1964 ad does a good job of describing which Vauxhall geeks will know is the revised car with different grille & a bigger 1.6-litre engine… @neilmbriscoe @t2stu @DarraghMcKenna @TopOfTheTower @StvCr
Factoid Extra: The Californian was the 1st of the Imp coupé derivatives launched in Jan 1967 (followed by the luxurious Singer Chamois & faster Sunbeam Stiletto) & showed the car could be turned into a stylish fastback… @neilmbriscoe @t2stu @DarraghMcKenna @TopOfTheTower @StvCr
Factoid Extra: Rootes’ models had multiple variations as the cars were updated over the yrs which is why this Rapier is a Series IIIA (1961-63) with the changes under the skin including an enlarged 1.5-litre engine… @neilmbriscoe @t2stu @DarraghMcKenna @TopOfTheTower @StvCr
Factoid Extra: While the sketch might not be so accurate in the 1st ad here’s a reminder that UK assembled Citroën DS (or DS-esses) had leather upholstery & Connolly Leather at that (as this earlier ‘launch’ ad notes)… @neilmbriscoe @t2stu @DarraghMcKenna @TopOfTheTower @StvCr
Factoid Extra: As you might expect for the Mini there were plenty of conversion kits for the van to turn it into a four-seater… @neilmbriscoe @t2stu @DarraghMcKenna @TopOfTheTower @StvCr
Factoid Extra: As you might expect for the Mini there were plenty of conversion kits for the van to turn it into a four-seater… @neilmbriscoe @t2stu @DarraghMcKenna @TopOfTheTower @StvCr https://t.co/SLCf2LUjny
Factoid Extra: Here’s your quick reminder you could convert your Mini-Van into a 4-seater van though no rear windows, the battery on one side & the spare wheel on the other made it had hardly luxurious for the occupants… @neilmbriscoe @t2stu @DarraghMcKenna @TopOfTheTower @StvCr
Factoid Extra: More Mini accessories with the Shorrock ‘pressure charger’ & the possibly needed ‘Alpine Horn’ as a result. Sydney Allard is worthy of note being 1952 Monte winner in his own Allard P1 car… @neilmbriscoe @t2stu @DarraghMcKenna @TopOfTheTower @StvCr
Factoid Extra: And the sheer joy of reading about it too… Subscribe to the blog & you’ll see why… @neilmbriscoe @t2stu @DarraghMcKenna @TopOfTheTower @StvCr

Saturday Takeaway: A stylish, swift European estate car, well-equipped (including a cigar lighter), a boot floor that doubled as a picnic table & a new word for you - what more could you want this week? @neilmbriscoe @t2stu @DarraghMcKenna @TopOfTheTower @StvCr
Factoid Extra: Yes, the inventive nature of firms to sell accessories for your Mini knew no bounds such as the ‘Mini-Chair’ which aside from being designed to fit your Mini’s boot couldn’t ‘rust or rot’, unlike the car… @neilmbriscoe @t2stu @DarraghMcKenna @TopOfTheTower @StvCr
Factoid Extra: As Mini accessories go this is one actually quite useful… @neilmbriscoe @t2stu @DarraghMcKenna @TopOfTheTower @StvCr
Factoid Extra: If you have any interest in motor racing & the extraordinary stories from its rich history then this podcast series really is a must listen. You won’t be disappointed… @neilmbriscoe @t2stu @DarraghMcKenna @TopOfTheTower @StvCr

Factoid Extra: By 1962 the ‘Auntie’ Rover P4s were showing their age though Sept saw one final change with the 95 & 110 models. Btw, the last car rolled off the line in May 1964, so, there’s an anniversary for you… @neilmbriscoe @t2stu @DarraghMcKenna @TopOfTheTower @StvCr
Factoid Extra: A reminder that disc brakes on a Mini were quite a technical achievement back when the Mini Cooper appeared in 1961 but did you know it was the world’s smallest at the time? I didn’t… @neilmbriscoe @t2stu @DarraghMcKenna @TopOfTheTower @StvCr
Factoid Extra: The Mk2 Granada was strong seller in the early ‘80s & comfortably the country’s best selling executive car. In Jan 1984 Ford consolidated that with the LX models promoted here with a nicely illustrated ad. @neilmbriscoe @t2stu @DarraghMcKenna @TopOfTheTower @StvCr
Factoid Extra: This 1984 Ford diesel ad for Escort/Fiesta vans is as much an education about diesels themselves & dealing with the preconceived issues buyers had them as it is a means of promoting the engines… @neilmbriscoe @t2stu @DarraghMcKenna @TopOfTheTower @StvCr
Factoid Extra: The ‘X’ in the Ghia X of this Ford Granada actually stood for ‘eXtra value’ but I’m guessing you’re looking at the car’s sumptuous Connolly Leather seats instead in this 1984 ad… @neilmbriscoe @t2stu @DarraghMcKenna @TopOfTheTower @StvCr
Friday Commitment: A roll with your coffee with the 505 GTI Turbo, a 180bhp executive express. Underbonnet mods meant RHD was impractical, but a LHD car did arrive for use by a Peugeot Talbot executive… @neilmbriscoe @t2stu @DarraghMcKenna @TopOfTheTower @StvCr @alantaylorjones

"There's more of a culture in the black community to use knifes than in the white one..." "So you're a racist then?" @OliDugmore and caller Kevin engage in a heated disagreement over ways to tackle knife crime in the UK.
The BBC didn’t invite me to their big London Mayor TV debate, so I decided to have my own one instead. Here’s my answer to an all-important question about public transport… #VoteBinface #BindependenceDay
At 5pm today on @LateBrakeShow you can watch the first episode of a 3 part mini series we've made on taking a new car on the oldest (and still cheapest) motorsport in the world. We prep a Kia Picanto 1.0 for the Lands End Trial. This year was its 100th event!
So why are we out in the rain #sophiefromromania wants to know
This time last week. 5 long months until the next Scramble. Luckily for all of us, the summer is packed with car shows and events. Which are on your list?
Latest model: Random car brochure picture of the day. #Peugeot

Yes - Model T Fords were also built in the UK but not "during the industrial revolution" and this photo was taken in Detroit in 1913. It's like illustrating the coronation of King George III with a painting of King Leopold II.
I SUPPOSE they think people are just dumb and don't spot it. OR They themselves don't have a scooby as to what they are sharing. I immediately saw that was a Model T
Later @LeeAndersonMP_ you have a clip of Robert Milligan's statue being removed. Could you explain why you think this statue to an "owner" of enslaved people should have stayed in its prominent position?
Thank you @LeeAndersonMP_ Your video talks about how proud you are of the industrial revolution... and then you illustrate it with a picture of a Model T Ford production line... ....in Detroit, Michigan, USA. Always good to have new material.
You have to respect these Susan Hall Tory campaigners for one thing: At least they're admitting that they're a party of dinosaurs - destined for extinction.
Can it really be 50 years since the great Niki Lauda won an #F1 GP for the first time? Yes, it can be, & it is, for it happened at Jarama #OnThisDay in ’74. It was a crazy race, as I explain in my latest @Motor_Sport column. Click below to find out why. motorsportmagazine.com/articles/singl…
@addict_car Here’s the one I saw at Caffeine and Machine last week #Audi80
The UK was one of the few global markets where the Audi 80 was also offered as an estate car, using the VW Passat estate body. This marketing move didn't prevent Volkswagen's British dealers selling a luxury Passat GLS too.
The Audi 80 had debuted in 1972, winning the European Car of the Year Award the following year (beating the Renault 5). Its 2-door body was not particularly popular in the UK, which preferred the 4-door, but made more impact in this 1.6-litre GT model.
Audi did very well with the front-wheel-drive 80, showing customers were happy to pay a bit extra for a premium badge. This 1976 UK spread shows the 4-door saloon line-up, starting with the 1.3 L. The B1 80 was very closely related to the Volkswagen Passat. #carbrochure #Audi
Amazing. Laurence Fox's Reclaim Party has spaffed money on an election ad in a place where nobody can vote for him. Absolute 💯 classic.
He bought an ad campaign for an election he failed to register for. PS. @LozzaFox, Epsom isn't even in Greater London...
A solid day working on the Focus clutch. Ball joint pinch bolts and driveshaft clip fought me! Tomorrow is reassembly time
Everyone walked away. Whoever designed the crash protection in these cars deserves a lifetime of happiness
POV of the crash from @FollowJHDD’s Ava Dobson — she, @DEForceRacing’s Bruno Ribeiro and all others involved in the dust up were able to walk away on their own power 🙏
