The You Tube episode with the Volvo 480 at about 42 minutes. They're outside the Ace cafe and there's a red Frogeye 496 TTF? Anyone's here?

Leaks and kite flying are hardly unique to this administration, especially in the run up to a Budget. As Guy says, wait until she's standing in front of the Despatch Box nest week and then we'll know.
Not sure why some people (not here) are so upset about a pay per mile road tax on EVs; that's exactly what fuel duty is - the more you drive the more tax you pay. As a tax that doesn't seem unre...

Guy, I tend to agree with you about wait and see till its announced. It something I have said many times and I don't think it's so much testing the waters as some suggest, its more about being able to say it wasnt as bad as suggested.

As far as car tax goes, if it puts people off buying electric that is a good thing in my book. As for taxing EVs, everyone with any sense knew it had to com...

The frenzy is caused by leaks and kites from the gov't, not the media speculation.

Of course the media and everybody else will speculate if the gov't keeps testing potential budgetary policies in advance to see how they'll run.

There was a time when the gov't stayed completely schtum before the budget, to avoid this speculation.

I really fail to understand the frenzy. Totally media driven with 'pundits' declaring all sorts of intentions just do they have headlines and media sales targets to fill. Augmented no doubt by the intentional government 'leak', a strategy used back in Blair's time. But it is this frenzied speculation that drives market uncertainty.
There's a fixed date for announcing the budget. Just wait unti...

Trev, I agree. Therefore, "media speculation"shouldn't be blamed as was asserted in the original post as the topics have been fed to them.

Yep, nice car.

I've got Minator 'minilites' on mine.

Apart from the original minilites being magnesium (I think), is there any obvious visual difference in replicas?

Meanwhile, the LIB DEM'S are out to get us. ---

Yeah, Rayner as PM, *WOULD* be criminal Dave. 🤣🤣.


I would Willy. And I see no reason not to express how I view her lack of intelligence using my phone key pad.

One can only hope even this socialist mob see how dumb she is, and how much worse off the country would be, with her or the likes of her at the helm.

Sadly though, it may be a forlorn hope.

I s...

Nice car---the guys have got that oh shit what do we do now look about them.
