It doesn't take much oil to get smokey. The stuff that burnt off just from greasy mechanics hands was surprising.

It's getting murky now. Will we have Dark Horses Matter? Hang on, GTD = GT Darkest.

That's where I put my cam in order to see the front of the car and what's ahead of it. I may put it lower, below the licence plate in future and rely on the warning bars. Does anyone know if you can place objects like a cam in front of the Radar housing? Or, if our South Pacific peso climbs...

I'd bet it's an oil leak getting on the exhaust.

Maybe Darker Horse? For the people thinking they're racing an ordinary DH.

I've just replaced a 70mai A800S in the Mustang with a 70Mai M310, both 4K. The M310 doesn't have a screen so is easier to mount without blocking vision. Both seem to have excellent image quality.

Ben didn't have any nutters who know SFA fixing cars.

What I see on channels like "Just rolled in" just blows me away. I wouldn't drive some of that crap.

Absolutely! I am thrice blessed, she puts up with me, she has good taste in silly cars ( including Mustangs) and she loves good food and wine. She's the perfect match.

I do realise that, but how do you control DIY stuff? It'd be really hard to find a balance between the freedom to work on your car and the safety of others. Especially on modern cars which are like spaceships compared to pre 90's cars.

OK, I'm the outlier, don't like Boss or Mach. Bosses were quite unpleasant when I was an apprentice, being the very bottom of the mechanic totem pole. I do like SC because I know it means supercharged

It wouldn't be the taxes worrying me over there. It'd be the high pitched whining noise coming up fast behind.

I partly agree. But who's overseeing the quality of repair? I've seen some horrors up close and online that makes me shudder to think they're on our roads. Like the muppet who replaced leaking hub seals on his car trailer, but didn't clean the grease off the brakes.

By all accounts. We're doing the test drive on Sat, and then finalising.

That's base version, this one has a rubber band.

I really want a chronometric tachometer, just so I know what revs I reached after I over revved the thing.

If they built a shopping trolley. My wife's car to be, '21 Abarth 595 Competizione C (convertible). As she said, if I'm going to have silly car, I may as well go full crazy. 1 owner - the dealership owners Mother, 34,000kms. 180hp 1040kgs, Brembos, Bilstein handling pack, slippery diff...

Jeez, I thought I was fussy, but now I see I'm just a slobbish amateur.

Rebuilding diffs is not hard, but does need engineers blue, dial gauge, and having been taught by someone who knows.

Well, English is my first language, but I can't understand most UK accents, especially Northern and Scottish. It's the Tower of Babel all over again.
