New video alert! 🚨 This time, I’m joined by my good friend and mechanic Matthew as we take a closer look at my Audi TT’s 124k mile engine. Is it healthy or should I brace myself for an expensive winter? Let’s find out… 🫣

Remember my old Z4? Well, it started a new life in Ireland back in May and finally has its new registration (blurred for privacy) assigned! The new owner is absolutely chuffed with it 😁

The heavy rain didn’t dampen the spirits at Anglesey Circuit today! An excellent day watching all the Race of Remembrance action. The mighty RacePanda finished 3rd in class too! 👏

Just hearing about the sad death of Quentin Willson. Another motoring legend lost to cancer 😔

Here we go folks, my first Daniel Drives episode with the TT has gone live! I explain my plans with the car, why I spontaneously decided to buy it, and whether I have any concerns regarding the car’s past. I hope you enjoy this one! 😎

Finally managed to clear a car-sized hole in the garage. The Panda is now tucked up nicely for the foreseeable. With the TT’s arrival alongside the 325i, it’s only fair that the Panda is kept dry and away from the incoming salt 👍
Don’t worry, it’s not being dumped! No Panda abuse here.

What a great review, and positively fantastic headline to lead it with. No depressing lead, just really delighted take on what's arguably the best all around EV on sale in western markets. Great work @danielcars05.bsky.social

Evening BlueSky, have you seen my latest YouTube video yet? I get nerdy with the all-new Kia EV3 in the beautiful Peak District. If you’re considering a family EV, then definitely give this a watch 👌

The first of two Daniel Drives episodes with the wonderful Kia EV3 has gone live! I take a drive up to the Lake District to test the car on a mixture of roads, with some stunning scenery along the way. Can it really do 300+ miles on a charge? 🤔

This Traaaaaansittttt has seen better days 😮
It’s strange (and quite sad) that it was once parked there by somebody and it never moved an inch again.

290 miles today (without charging) in the Kia EV3 driving to and from the Lake District. Mainly motorway miles with some sightseeing around Lake Windermere. The car achieved 4.2 miles/kWh and was extremely comfortable 👌

The last time I got “lost”, I ended up in Liechtenstein in my BMW 325i. This time, it’s Oulton Park in my press Kia EV3! This is proof you can appreciate both piston and electric as a car enthusiast 🙌

I’m grateful to be living with the all-new Kia EV3 for the next week. I’m already pretty impressed by it! What do you think? 🤔
