    Sorry, not my take at all.

    I really liked the cinematography and the lighting, but the rest of it? It was trying so hard to be Brideshead's high-cheekboned bad-boy big brother, full of a...

    I’ll second this. A wonderful country, unfailingly lovely people.

    Westjet were excellent and I'd definitely use again - the in-flight experience was the same as pretty much every other economy airline. Decent seats, good-enough space - and a lot cheaper than BA.

    My 996 had lowered sports suspension - trying to get a wrist in the available gap between the wing and the wheel to pull the release was a nightmare!

    If you have a recent appraisal, the insurance value - at least you do with my policy. Others may be different.

    I bought a ring and bracelet for my wife from a very reputable dealer for £10k in total. She had them valued 5 months later for insurance purposes - £6k for the ring, £16k for the bracelet. I may be...

    I was quicker around Mallory Park in a race-prepped 205 GTI 1.9 than I was in a 911. Far more of a sense of occasion in the 911 though.

    The Macan is seriously fast but has all the charisma of a...

    I had a 996 3.4 for a while - loved it to bits. The problem with it as an everyday car was that it was really quite raw and I'm not as young as I was. A 991 would be a better day-to-day car but...

    Chris, you came out with the "boss of Toyota" comments several weeks back and at the time it was pointed out that he was a far from unbiased source, what with the current Toyota and Lexus EVs being...

    Agreed - I've had an RX100 III for several years and it's a fabulous little thing. Secondhand it's £200-300 but immeasurably better than most compact cameras and to my mind worth the money. All...

    I’m overjoyed at having finally learned how to pull wheelies.

    It’s almost as if I didn’t know what 300kg was. Luckily I’m an accountant so I could figure it out.

    As I say, there are bigger hills to die on.

    I’ve just ordered a new electric car - ideally I’d have had an estate, but other than a really horrible MG there are no EV estates. I’ve ended up with a 2wd Nissan Ariya which is, I guess, an SUV. I...

    All reasonable points, but I’d have to say that how fast a car gets around the Nurburgring is utterly irrelevant to all but a tiny number of people and mostly they’re the sorts of anoraks I try to...

    Second this - depends on the roads (all motorway at 85 mph will suck juice!) but you should have no problem. Rough maths says you’d be able to 2/3 charge your car in the cheap hours, and you’d only...

    I know you don’t want to hear this, but EV is coming in just a few years for all the markets that Jaguar serves. Investing in petrol or diesel would arguably be every riskier for the company than...

    Yup, all that caring about the environment - absolute cobblers. I don’t feel like a real man unless I’ve burned a bag of coal and polluted a lake before breakfast.
