Factoid: That’s how you ‘sell’ a magazine with a headline that makes you want to read more. The 200 SX was a deeply competent car & described by Autocar as the ‘probably the best 2-plus-2 coupe that you can buy in the UK this side of a 944’. It’s still an impressive car some 36 years later…

Factoid: Tongue firmly in cheek for this 1980 UK TR7 ad, but you have to admire them for trolling Ferrari as it certainly got people’s attention. Hopefully Ferrari got the joke too…

L.A. is a Mexican-American city. The majority of the population is made up of racial and ethnic minorities. We are all happy living together and really do not want to see our friends, neighbors and families being terrorized by federal robo-cops. This is bullshit.

People in ICE detention are being denied health care and adequate nutrition, often given spoiled food or nothing at all. Our government’s cruelty to immigrants is a moral failing — not a policy solution.

I don't care if these monstrous ICE raids are a "federal operation". This is authoritarian violence, plain and simple. Just because Stephen Miller has kidnapping quotas for brown people he doesn't want to see on the street doesn't mean we have to think it's okay.

Factoid: The two Austin Healeys appear in this 1965 ad as BMC promotes their all-year usability. Of course, what’s not mentioned was both cars in their previous generations didn’t actually have wind-up windows…

#OnThisDay in ’67 Jim Clark won the #DutchGP. So what, you may ask? After all, he’d won it 3 times before. True, he had, but this win was special, for it was the first #F1 GP win for the Cosworth DFV V8 engine. It would win 154 more. Pic: Clark, Lotus 49, DFV, Zandvoort.

Remembering Bruce McLaren, who lost his life in a Goodwood testing crash in one of his own #CanAm cars #OnThisDay in ’70, & whose name lives on in #F1 glory 55 years later. All McLaren fans should mark this day with pride therefore. Here’s the #Autosport report of the tragedy.

Turns out DOGE is more than just a fake agency, it’s cuts are fake too. A dog and pony show. Uncover the truth behind the fake “savings” and the real cost to taxpayers… like… your information. Watch now: m.youtube.com/watch?v=-8YR...

Hiding their faces, hiding their names by using pens to hold their pocket flaps up, hiding their names. ICE agents have “consciousness of guilt,” know they are committing crimes. They need to be unmasked, named, and charged #UnmaskICE

Factoid: The adoption of the 2000’s rear suspension was the TR4A’s main upgrade & there were ‘IRS’ boot lid badges to let you know. Btw, other upgrades included a walnut dash. The Mk2 Spitfire arrived simultaneously with added power, nicer fittings, but sadly the same swing axle rear suspension.

Factoid: I don’t know if you’d drive it ‘like a sports car’, but how many station wagons had ‘a thumping great 289 Mustang V-8 engine under the bonnet’? I can say though this was one of the 1st UK sold Australian Fords…

Car styling fashions moved rapidly in the first couple of decades after WW2. This meant that Ford of Britain's big-selling Anglia 105E, launched in 1959 with Detroit-influenced looks, seemed desperately dated by the time of this 1967 UK brochure, the model's last year. #weirdcarbs🧵

Something spicy & delicious as a taco has gotten under Trumplestiltkin's thin tangerine skin. Seems the master of mean, juvenile nicknames can dish them out but when directed towards him, he can't take it, angrily calling it "nasty."🤣 Good to know. (you know what to do!) 🌮🌮 🌮🌮 🌮🌮 🌮🌮 🌮🌮 🌮🌮 🌮🌮 🌮🌮 🌮
