Fightingtorque: you have it or you dont. It's not about getting from A to B, it's about getting from a TO b. Lost already? Hit the 'back' button. On the other hand, if your fingernails are black underneath and your clothes smell of high octane gasoline then come and join the quest for global road performance.

IT ALL STARTED....
With a brick truck.

Apparently I mastered the 4 wheel drift without spilling any wooden blocks berfore I was able to walk unassisted. It was then a short few years before the father and son restored MG Midget was cornering castle combe on the doorhandles. After 4 years with the Under Seventeens Car Club, the nice people at DVLA let me out on the highway. more>

HILLMAN IMP
Never driven an imp? Laugh away.

Those who have won't be. Not at 930cc with Weber, trick head, cam & exhaust, front rad, lowered 2 inches, 5x12 alloys and drum brakes! Lots of filler and gaffa tape as well. Replace horsepower with courage, it's amazing what these little rollerskates get up to. Wish I still had one (Actually I had 3 but only one worked). more>

A REAL PETROL HEAD
No way around it: speed costs money.

This prompted pursuit of a career in engine parts manufacture, facilitating collection of the tools seen here. It turned out to be a global pursuit which ate up a lot of my spanner wielding time, but enabled me to experience a far richer set of road experiences.

FOR MY NEXT TRICK
So to integrate family with tyre frying: - Beemer!!

That V8 makes it oh so painless. 924 will be taken outside and shot. Chery still has lots of potential, but I have my eye also on the new Brilliance JinJue - it's just been launched with Mitsubishi engines but in a few months it will be available with a 1.8T, and I might have had something to do with supplying some of the engine bits.
The Lotus? If I still miss the imp, where would I be if I sold the Esprit!..more>
