That XJS is wow. If John Steed from the Avengers was around, that's the car he would drive (remember The New Avengers from the mid-70s).

Watching after returning home from attending the Sir Stirling Moss Service of Thanksgiving at Westminster Abbey. An amazing gathering of world champions, team personnel, friends, and supporters there to remember the great man. And a stunning collection of his cars, including “722” that came back to the UK one more time.

Hi Ped Great to see that win for Lando, well deserved here’s hoping for more to come. Having completed a major building project just over two years ago, looking forward to seeing your dream garage come to fruition, bet you wish you had started when we did seeing how material & labour costs have soared.🤭

@PetrolPed

Originally wanted it done a couple of years ago but materials and cost were much higher. Things a bit more sensible now 👍

It’s great that the XJS is getting some attention… and it does look like a great project. 600bhp and wide arches was done a little more elegantly by Lister in the eighties but modern tech should elevate this to new levels.

Happy for Lando to finally get a win. Hope your barn design includes a tall door to enable you to get your Defender in when you get it one day😂

Hi all. Great result for Lando Norris. He was brilliant on the day. Glad your cold is finally better. Talking of night shifts.. we’ve been on nights for 33 years. Most of them 12 hrs 😩

Hello Peter! Well late this week but some thoughts! The garage will be a transformation for you and make a huge difference. Mine is all new but not big enough..there simply is no way to enlarge it but get excellent LED strip lighting…I’m so pleased with mine..bright, no shadows and not harsh. Get good flooring and go for the heavier weight tiles if you have them..the popular showroom type grid ones get full of dust so I got raised “ penny” design tiles in red and grey..they work perfectly. I also bought illuminated signs and there are hundreds of designs…they make it look special! I’m really looking forward to see what you do with that fine building! Useless fact…Hilary’s local corner shop was run by the owner of the registration number TWR 1 and had it on various cars including an Austin Princess 1800!! I still see the number around and guess it is still in that family but always thought Tom Walkinshaw would pay good money for it! 😎😎 Lando is the talk of his old school ( Milfield) and the Head has been giving interviews on BBC points West…I hope his success continues! Time to go…loads of garden planting to do…Plants from Cornwall, Hampshire and Somerset are outside calling me! 😃😃😃😃 Stay safe…Richard😀😀😀😀😀😀

Love a Jag! Nice bit of squirrel 😂

The new garage is going to be great 👍 congratulations 🥳 For me the GP that always tugs on the heart strings is Monza 🏁 This year will be the 46th since the death of Ronnie Peterson. Stunning driver and a great bloke. Never forgotten here ❤

You need a bendpak auto stacker in the left bay. Options to get under a car and also turn your two car garage into a three car. Use a glass wall at the end of the mezzanine and have views from your office through to the car on the top of the bendpak. Genius.

Interesting garage project. Looking forward to see the progress and the final results

Glad to hear and see that you're leaving that head cold behind, mate. Recovery is at hand! This TWR V12 Supercat get's the "chef's kiss." Such a beautiful and respectful last gasp for the car manufacturers I used to adore back in my day. These times remind me of the waning days of film cameras. Nikon, Leica, Hasselblad and many others built the loveliest and best-crafted cameras for film...just when they and everyone else were going digital. Now, even obtaining repair service, film and processing for these cameras is a tall order. This Jaguar and those of its ilk will also face challenges in the 2030s and beyond. This makes them more admirable in my eye. I give them all a smile and a tear...

Lando - agree, just seeing the rest of the grid congratulate him says it all! Petrol - yep, gone from £1.49 to £1.71 for premium - thankfully Porsche club have the WEX card so 6p a litre off. What am I doing. At the hospital saying hello to my first grandchild, Gabriella. Cannot express the happiness I feel - next generation peddler if I have anything to do with it.

Garage - my dream you lucky bugger! Well deserved and super excited to see the progress. Gotta get some motoring glitz in the Ped Parlour when it’s done.

Evening Ped! Petrol is fluctuating in price up here in north Lancashire. I always buy premium super unleaded for the F Type, I don’t do enough miles for it to hurt me too much, mind you I have just had to replace two rear tyres and a set of rear pads costing over £600. Ouch!

I remember only a few years ago, when petrol and diesel were both 99p per litre at the garage near me.

Do I make the magnificent 92? 🤣 Just paid £1.79.99 for super 😞 F1 awesome for Lando & McLaren. Interestingly I was watching stadium tuck racing and they have a 'mandatory' safety car 50-75% through the race. This would be very interesting in F1, bunch the pack up 20 laps from the end and you would get a similar race to Miami. Much more exciting. Don't forget to watch the BTCC its even more thrilling and if you do then support Dan Cammish 🙏 Next time you are at Podium place you should visit 'V' engineering, 5 mins away, unreal McLaren workshop and where almost all the P1's go to be serviced. If you want an intro let me know. You know planning expires after 3 years ???? Sounds awesome

Was a good race and so nice to see someone else win. For me the respect Lando had from all drivers was amazing. Do you think it also goes to show about being in clean air. Out in front and off you go?

10 years in the planning 😂

historic classic vintage events cars racing etc ---- historic monaco and porsche F1 --- wikipedia refs --- sorry bit long etc ... The first Monaco Historic Grand Prix was held in 1997 as part of the year-long celebrations marking the 700th anniversary of the Grimaldi family's presidency over Monaco. It had only been intended as a one-off event but became a huge success, leading to its continuation as a biennial event from 2000. The Historic Grand Prix of Monaco (also called the Monaco Historic Grand Prix depending upon the source) is a series of automotive races focussed on historic motorsport. The event is typically held biennially two weeks before the Formula One Grand Prix of Monaco. Porsche F1 -- ''' Let’s go all the way back to the 1930s. Ferdinand Porsche, the founder of Porsche AG initially designed Grand Prix cars for Mercedes and Auto Union, however the manufacturer never really settled in single seater racing. In fact it wasn’t until the late 1950s when Porsche returned, entering the Porsche 718 RSK, a two-seater sports car, into Formula 2 because for some reason that was allowed back then. This was then adapted to have a single seat in the middle, and in ’61 the former F2 cars were moved up to Formula 1 but Porsche were not competitive ... However, a year later they enjoyed their first win as a constructor in Formula 1. The sleek Porsche 804 produced their only win as a constructor in a championship race, claimed by Dan Gurney at the 1962 French Grand Prix. At the end of the season, Porsche withdrew from F1 due to the high costs but privateers continued to enter the outdated Porsche 718 until 1964. Porsche has a slightly odd relationship with F1 - mainly as they are involved in so much else motor-sports. Later Porsche returned supplying water cooled engines to McLaren, badged as TAG Units. Porsche didn’t want to have their name associated with the engine because they feared if they failed it would lead to bad publicity. It was quickly obvious Porsche engines were the best and their name quickly appeared on the power units.TAG-Porsche-powered cars took two constructor championships in 1984 and 1985, and three driver crowns in 1984, 1985 and 1986 as Niki Lauda and Alain Prost enjoying plenty of success. However, their drivers regularly called for them to develop a qualifying engine to hold higher turbo boost. Porsche and TAG owner Mansour Ojjeh refused due to additional costs, and the fact they had 7 pole positions and 21 front row starts. ''' wiki and car mags edited together ..
