Friends dont let friends buy expensive vehicles that have had a makeover from Wickerland before hitting the showroom floor. This is the very latest in bamboo, duct tape and compression strap tech. I mean, it would look entirely out of place at your favourite FSR camp spot.

We all know that Corvettes are the sole province of American dads and that the best way to dress up a Stingray is with a pair of Maui Jim sunglasses, a Tommy Bahama shirt and a freshly ironed pair of jorts. What if, though, that didnt have to be the case?

What we have here is basically someone who has watched Return of the Jedi and had a go a building an ATAT Walker. And were not saying that is a bad thing. Bring yours in for a free service.

This is quite the interior, and a literal car load of tech.

When youre so slammed you have to remove the bumper every time you enter the garage. Form over function? Or just form? I dont think function is even in this guys vocabulary.

Fancy launching golf balls at your $2+ Million dollar vehicle? No? Me neither. If youre going to do it, make sure you are a pro.

Taxi for Vinales. Rumour has it, he ignored advice from Brembo to change his brakes due to overheating concerns. Always listen to the experts!

Get it tied down! There are so many great uses for these. Arguably, kids are. better off in a proper car seat but that still leaves a lot of other uses! :)

Ping! Whats that sound? Another one of thses clippy things.

Canada. Sometimes you come up with some absolutely cracking ideas. One of these in at least each province please.

What a glorious looking beast!

During lockdown .... all dreams are worth following!

Stick a Go Pro inside a tire and drive around ..... said one person ever. Here is the story of that person and the video of the results. Why? Because its there.

Those luxury guys like gadgets. But when it comes to shifting, they want it old school.

Has the Bronco got what it takes? heres the proof. Rubicon Trail tested with the scars to prove it. Nice not to see the same old shiny marketing pics for a change!

Its too small. Very likely too expensive. Its not a classic because its new. We have no idea why this would be built. If you want a petrifying drive down a busy highway with a much lighter wallet. This is the vehicle of the century for you.

A clean car means a clean mind. Well, probably not the right quote but a clean car is, at least, not a dirty car. So .... thats probably good. Heres how.

This is like Robin Hood. But in reverse.

If youre going to be an influencer, youd be much better off influencing supercars than some dodgy kickstarter campaign! Supercar Blondie .... 6.4 million followers. https://buff.ly/2ECjpoP

An amusing review on a Volvo that despite having, literally, been around the block a few times, still looks pretty sweet we think. At least, not too bad for a 30 year old with over 750,000kms on the clock.

While we are on the Air Conditioning roll, here when to use that air Recirculation button. There is also a neat winter tip tucked away at the bottom of the page too.

Lets attribute this one to a lockdown mental lapse. Oops!

Ladies and Gentlemen, we give you [drum roll] the Citroen Karim. If you have one of these, please bring it in! Wed love to see it. Maybe choose a cloudy day because that Greenhouse is gonna BURN!

Weve posted a few Bronco notices before, but now its been officially released it literally al over every car site and magazine. And with good reason, it looks fantastic. To get a feel for all the models check out the Ford site. Ill take the Badlands version please.

1,600 kph. For those of you perpetually late for meetings, this is the vehicle for you. Kelowna to Westbank is 13.8km according to Google Maps.

This does not, I repeat not, look like a great idea. Oh, and we do tires, but we dont do this tire.
