Paging @chrisfm52e.bsky.social

Finally got my dream car.

Stunning. Although a great shame it isn't on the Ferrari-esque five spokes.

Amazing snooker from Hossein Vafaei. Simply superb.

Ex Surtees 330GT is already car of the show for me. Good to see proper car snacks being deployed here, too.

Bicester...

This - to employ the vernacular of today's youth - absolutely slaps.

How are you today, @moderatefairgood.bsky.social ?

Great thread from Craig here. I've always hated the attitude of (sorry to say it) so many old boys who treat events like their own exclusive club that no one else can enter. This is the way it should be.

For 830 followers I am going a bit leftfield. Although pics are hard to find, I believe this is indeed a pic of one of the 18 830i prototypes that BMW made.

A few random old bikes, some of which apparently used to be ridden by some bloke called Barry. Specifically for @arressveetwin.bsky.social

Loved the Goodwood Members Meeting today. First one i have managed to get to. Great racing, fantastic cars, bit less intense than the Revival. As always... always check the car park And definitely take a second glance at that Stag... #actcp

I like this tremendously.

So, a bit of a weekend of automotive contrasts for me. Rustival today. Goodwood Members Meeting tomorrow. Taking the new Guzzi as it needs running in and a c.170 mile round trip should be plenty to get to know it a bit better.

Also, Lovely to catch up with @phil-p.bsky.social @joehallenbeck.bsky.social @kuangeleven.bsky.social @bob-p-dj.bsky.social @vhschloe.bsky.social @5pot4pot.bsky.social @norwichgiant.bsky.social @essexstu.bsky.social @arressveetwin.bsky.social and meet @the-crust.bsky.social too! #rustival

A modest scattering of stuff from another excellent #Rustival Hats off to @hubnut.bsky.social @misshubnut.bsky.social @mattfd.bsky.social and everyone else involved. It's quickly established itself as a must-attend show.

Rustival, here we come!

For God's sake, @phil-p.bsky.social - it's purple! Mrs P can't possibly complain if you buy this!

One more call to get through to finish off the week from hell...

Right. Which of you muddy funsters is coming to #Rustival on Saturday? And what are you bringing? I am 90% sure that I am bringing the Thema. Will be its second Rustival but hey, why not? That said, the Fairthorpe definitely needs to get to Rustival one day...

820 followers and that means a very quick look at two contrasting Rovers which my father owned back in the day: an 820Si fastback in light metallic blue, followed by a rather splendid and very red 820 Turbo. (Library pics, obvs. Well, when I say "library", I mean Google...)

Can't take any questions right now. I am too busy frantically donning my leathers so I can get out on this before my next meeting. #motosky

Please inject this directly into my eyeballs.

Canadian people: It's a long shot, but worth a try...

@popup-breakdown.bsky.social - that Alfa has just dropped in price. Looking ever more tempting... ebay.us/m/Pl6NNE

This is truly awful.

Well this was a lovely surprise. Pulled into a petrol station in Marlow this morning (because Thema...) and this lovely DBS was parked there. Had a nice mutual appreciation chat with the owner.

Posh restaurant last night to celebrate Mrs J managing to survive 20 years of being married to me. Felt the Thema would be the appropriate carriage for the occasion. (Building materials spoil the shot, somewhat)

This looks like an absolute must watch. www.theguardian.com/music/2026/a...

Everyone knows that rallying is the finest of all motorsports. If you want a cheeky preview of what's about to happen in #RallyCroatia you'll be pleased to know that Warren here has you covered.

New motorbike arrives next week. I am very excited.

Not sure who needs to see some early morning dog-walk pictures today, but I'm posting a few anyway.

On that plate, this must be an import. I do love these Jimnys (Jimnies?)

Enjoying a week in my spiritual home (the glorious west coast of Scotland). It's the 18th year we've been coming and i can honestly say I want to live here more than ever. Not the richest hunting ground for interesting automotive fauna, mind (that's a Reliant Robin in the distance in the last shot)

Neil's stuff is superb. Get some. Or I'll be having words...

Couple of cheeky spots in the village last night.

In the 1980s the Thema was quite a big car. Not anymore.

Well, that was fun. A 2 night whistle stop tour of North Yorks. Thanks to @andrewelan.bsky.social for scoping some great roads. Lovely as always to spend time with @chrisfm52e.bsky.social @phil-p.bsky.social @bob-p-dj.bsky.social plus Nick and Nige too.

Mood.

Mr Jalco here does good stuff. I've just got some. You should too.

Sacré bleu / zut alors etc etc Shoe-in for wheel trim of the decade just dropped. Renault continue to do wonderful stuff.

Surely a "double bed that can accommodate 1-2 adults"... ...literally isn't a double bed?

Another fan, @chrisfm52e.bsky.social !

Another one from yesterday. I love a Legacy and this looks lovely in world rally blue. The second pic is my old white Legacy Turbo which i had for about 18 months from mid 2020. A lovely thing but hampered by a slushy autobox.

Sitting in the back of Mrs J's car on the way back from a most enjoyable lunch earlier, I spotted a rather lovely Evo (an 8, maybe?) in front. Took a picture just at the right moment to get photo-bombed by an R107!

I think Frazzle needs to admit that this chair is too small for him.

Have you seen this month's Classic and Sportscar @popup-breakdown.bsky.social ?

I'm listening to this now and it's magnificent. This was the first punk / hardcore / post-hardcore (whatever) album I ever bought, and to say it changed the course of my life is an understatement. The original album is close to perfect. This is more raw but equally brilliant. God I love Fugazi.
