Back issues of the launch issue are nearly sold out - we only have 23 copies left! Order here: copaceticmagazine.co.uk/shop/single-...

Phew! That was a long day… Thanks so much to everyone who came to say hello, chat about the mag, pick up a copy, and generally be cool. Here’s the ‘before’ pic, before the gazebo disintegrated in the wind 😂

🚘SPECIAL SUBSCRIPTION OFFER🚔 For the next few days only, you can get 13 issues of Copacetic for just £50! That’s a saving of £13 off the usual 12-issue sub, with an extra mag thrown in for good measure. copaceticmagazine.co.uk/shop/subscri...

If you were curious about the Japanese characters on the cover of Issue 2 - they’re retro Simpsons references 😆 Order here: copaceticmagazine.co.uk/shop/

First saw Idlewild supporting Ash in 1998 and I’ve been a devoted fan ever since. (Still have the tour t-shirt from that gig!) So cool to see them on the launch day of their 10th album 🤘🏼

Also worth pointing out that Issue 3 (which has just gone to print) is chunkier - we’ve gone up to 148 pages so we can squeeze more cars in, with no increase to the cover price 😘

Anyone going to Bicester Scramble on Sunday? Come and say hello. His Lordship Barry will be on the Copacetic stand with @denialvibes.bsky.social Bit bitter sweet because it should have been Misery-Bug. But he's decided to throw an inlet valve and rocker.

Having a practice of the setup in the back garden, ready for the Bicester Scramble on Sunday. Come and find us in the trade village! I might even give you a free sticker… 😘

At Thruxton, driving the newly refreshed Genesis GV60. Can’t tell you what it’s like to drive now, but I can tell you that this paintwork is FABULOUS 🪩🕺🏼

I was feeling kinda down this morning. But driving these two has perked me up a bit.

Pre-orders for Issue 3 have just opened - so, time to exclusively reveal the cover. Cool, huh? 💫 You can order it here: copaceticmagazine.co.uk/product-cate...

Niche advice, but I can recommend cruising around in the sunshine in a Dino

Shot this yesterday. Feature coming soon to Copacetic...

The Goodwood Revival’s Summer of Love theme is the message the world needs right now 🫶🏼☮️💞

Absolutely heroic E30 shot for Car & Classic Auctions today. Originally a 325i Sport auto, now it's a 2.8 manual. Full repaint, new leather seats, new dash, Z3 quick rack, Z3M short-shift, fancy audio. Fabulous to drive. Revs like crazy. Love it.

Motorsport is exhausting. Sometimes you have to have a little lie-down.

That is a *very* good-looking race car 😍

Don’t suppose anyone has a recommendation for a gazebo that is a) goodish quality and b) not expensive?

How many racing drivers can you fit into one picture? Well, in this case, that many ✔️

Spent some time with the excellent dudes at Austin Cars today. They’re up to some really exciting stuff! So much work has gone into this pair of fresh ’59 racers 🚀

Perfectly normal washing-up, not weird

The new Suede album is 𝘮𝘢𝘨𝘯𝘪𝘧𝘪𝘤𝘦𝘯𝘵. They’re as good now as they were in the mid-nineties. 🫶🏼

I defy you to find a car with more fonts on its arse than the Ford Granada 2.8i Ghia X. It had 𝑓𝑖𝑣𝑒!

Sales of Copacetic issue 2 are already up +57% over issue 1. Thank you so much to everyone who’s bought it, it really means a lot. If you haven’t, here’s the link: copaceticmagazine.co.uk/shop/ …and here’s something that’ll be featuring in issue 3 🤫

Maybe I’d make better life choices in a Sinatra-spec Ghia, who can say? 🍸

Another favourite at the Hampton Court concours was this distinctly un-concours thing. Cadillacs are for cuddles 💞

Good plate ✔️

Despite the various other car things going on today, there was a stellar turnout at the Southside Hustle this morning 💫

My favourite car at the Hampton Court concours. Wonderful story behind it. Feature coming in Copacetic!

Some more from last night’s Copacetic meet at Caffeine & Machine ☕️⚙️

Fabulous turnout at the first ever Copacetic meet at Caffeine & Machine. See you at the next one…? 👀

OK gang, question for you. I’m looking into trade stands at car shows for Copacetic. I have public liability insurance, but venues are also asking for a risk assessment. Having never done one before - is there a standard form I can use, and/or what needs to be included? Ta.

Today’s the day! Come join us at The Bowl ⛽️🛸

ah, I miss being on holiday

Appearing in issue 2 of Copacetic magazine Garagistes: The Birdy Fleet of Broken Dreams Here l introduce @denialvibes.bsky.social to my driveway masters I'm a servant to. (The Depeche Mode song is definitely a garage anthem for this lot) copaceticmagazine.co.uk/shop/

This Friday! See you there?

300 SL shot today for Car & Classic Auctions. Had to work fast to dodge the rain showers!

Very much enjoyed talking to the makers of the PPW R33 about their exquisitely crafted masterpiece. Nearly got to talking about featuring it, but then a posh sod in a blazer literally elbowed me out of the way so he could talk to them instead, and that kinda soured the atmos 🫠

At Salon Privé, Thornley Kelham unveiled their delicious XK European GT Roadster. 360bhp. Bespoke all-alloy body. 6000+ hours of craftsmanship. This'll be getting a full feature in Copacetic. Of course it will. Look at it. 😍

The first ever Liberty Walk 500 in the USA 🚀 Full story in Copacetic - in shops now, or order online: copaceticmagazine.co.uk/shop/

The new CRM has landed! And look, I wrote a thing about a Manta…

This time next week! See you there?

Frustratingly the winning bidder on the auction pulled out, so my Mini is still for sale. 2015 Cooper S, MOT March, 75k miles, recent Falkens, Scorpion exhaust, Cravenspeed induction, CarPlay. Open to sensible offers (H8 YAY plate could *maybe* come with it for the right price)

In Issue 2 of Copacetic we have an in-depth feature on this FIA-spec Starlet. Yes, that is a Volkswagen ABF engine in there… In shops now, or order here: copaceticmagazine.co.uk/shop/
