Fuck it. You're all going in the book. That includes cheesecake lady, the kilted photographer, the petrolhead teacher, the spicy noodle eating vintner, PGU & his robotically controlled niece, the influencer dairy farmer, the scary one-eyed stoner actor.
Taking more suggestions for characters.
Now that I'm unemployed I'm going to start working on a book with bats, lighthouses and old houses. There may also be a ghostly theremin. You're my muse.

Also “Trunk or Treat” is the most mental thing I’ve ever heard, and I’m generally a petrolhead by Bluesky standards (admittedly only by BS standards)

Das ist Idiotie und das sage ich als "Petrolhead". Ich habe mir ein paar wirklich seltene Verbrennermodelle mit Historie auf die Seite gestellt, man kann fast sagen aus dem Verkehr gezogen. Fahre 5000km im Jahr mit div. Autos und >7000km im Jahr mit dem Rad, die meisten davon Alltagskilomter.

Question, will anyone over 40 live long enough to see fuel duty go up in their lifetime? The petrolhead lobby has got some clout.
But higher energy prices will bite this winter. So the Chancellor is offering immediate support to firms and workers, paid for by targeted tax rises on banks, vape shops, high-risk gambling machines and landlords. No overreaction to volatile markets, no broad-based tax rises.

My female parental unit had a dark blue '77 B-210 (Sunny?), new (for 18-months, IIRC...I was 10, but a hardcore petrolhead), and I can only imagine an F-10.

Plus...THAT FACE!

To this day, I remember how that car tracked grooved pavement. 😬

"NZ Motor & Cycle Journal", NZ's first mag for petrolhead and cyclist alike now available on Papers Past.

The founder Arthur Cleave "is reported to have completed the first-ever car journey from Auckland to Wellington in an American-made steam-powered Locomobile."

Some genre mash-ups are so incongruous they shouldn't work. This petrolhead climate fiction novel works a treat. The oppressive near future heat an intense setting for a weird sci thriller that is incomprehensible to its protagonist. Pretty incisive on male friendship too. #wasreading #booksky

Teď se to ale dostává do obecné roviny a dostává se to někam, kde už k tomu já osobně nemám co říct. Já mám v řidičské ohleduplnosti čisté svědomí. Jen říkám, že bychom jako chodci měli být líp vidět. A nemyslím si, že bych za to musela schytávat drsnou kritiku jako nějaký fanatický petrolhead.

Still as huggable as ever!
BTW, I wanted to ask you something as a fellow furry petrolhead. Mk.I Panda is coming to Forza and as someone making furry paintjobs, I instantly thought of Patty. May I, with your blessing sir, borrow an artwork of her into some mean racing colours? Pandemonium perhaps?

Nobody with any views?

This Transfagarazan stuff has been everywhere in petrolhead shows in the last years. I still have to meet someone who actually did it. Feels a bit like a hype. On the other hand, footage looks interesting.
As mountain roads are closing for the winter, I have watched those guys' European summer trip reports and come across this interesting video.

Has anyone here ever driven Transfagarazan and Transalpine highways in Romania? Is this worth doing?

It really depends for me.

I'm a huge petrolhead, so a bunch of my OC's are named after car brands/names, Like Mercedes, Murci (Short for Murcielalgo) or Lotus.

Or with say, demons, i reference demonic related stuff in names.

Other times, I'm just random when it comes to naming.

Hace ya mucho tiempo que cualquier PetrolHead o Derechista ha perdido la verguenza de hacerse la foto con el Violador-Pedófilo. Llevan décadas entrenando en exigir la máxima pureza ética al enemigo, y nada a los suyos. De aquí al día de las Midterms, Trump hará lo que sea por ganar... Sin límites.

Yo he dejado de recomendar encarecidamente como hacía antes a mis amigos y compañeros, con paciencia y dedicación, los coches y motos 100% eléctricos.

Ahora prefiero que lo descubran por las malas. Y vaya que van a aprender, hasta el mas petrolhead. Más dura será la caída.

My petrolhead neighbour bought a Maxus but seems to have replaced it with a gigantic gas-powered Ford.

I'm not much of a petrolhead (hardly one at all, to be honest), but I did get a run out in this beast yesterday. #classiccar #vauxhallcavalier #cavalier #car #cars
