Fairly inevitably, Honda CR-Zs have started to really turn my head of late.

I’ve written a massive passionate 3000 words (ish) article about my childhood experiences of trading Mega Drive games on the market and it took ages (little Sega joke there). I urge you to take a look and thank you: bleedingcart.neocities.org/swapshop

Toyota Carina E GTi (basically a five- door Celica GT). Somewhat overlooked in 1993. Probably a splendid thing to own today.

Toyota UK's 1990 "Specialist" car range brochures. Page 8 in the Summer issue featured the Spacecruiser for the final time before the Previa rolled in for Autumn.

I fear this Acclaim might be critical.

Might not get much done today; playing with this incredible pop-up Renault 9 will probably occupy all my time.

Had I been on the What Car? staff a little earlier (I was 1 at the time), I'd have BEGGED to be sent on this group test.

In today's "great might-have-beens", the Rover CCV concept has a better interior than any car you can buy today. (Don't @ me... unless you agree. Which you do)

I can resist buying new 1:64s, no problem. But something 55 years old for 50p in a Hedgehog Rescue charity shop? Well, I couldn't leave it behind, could I?

Never had one of these when I was 10 years old. Now I'm a grown-up with my own money. #Casio #CA53

STOP EVERYTHING. No matter what you're doing, nothing is more important than acknowledging a sighting of an MG Montego in the wild.

Finished my holiday reading. Been a while since I did a "where will the line take me?" random pencil sketch. Generic supercar edition.

Cheddar Gorge sounds particularly good today

When in Glastonbury, take photos of Saab 900s. Or so the guide book says.

Time to settle down and watch the sunset while finding out what's new in November 1988.

If a sports car can be defined as one that you keep soley because you love how it looks, feels and sounds, this Rover is my sports car. It isn't good, but it is wonderful.

Some eye-rolling from my wife on the walk back from our 10th anniversary dinner when I paused to snap this exceedingly dashing Corolla. Gotta have priorities.

Escort Cabrio appears to have slipped through some sunshine-related temporal vortex to land in 2025 Twickenham.
