Ended up in a forest outside of Gdańsk with most of the bottom of the engine missing after it left the road having hit an oil slick and hitting a tree stump

Wow... 7 years since I broke down on a lonely Californian canyon road near Morro Bay and freewheeled up to the local Veterans of Foreign Wars and they all came out to see the stranded Irish man and his broken great white Whale. The kindness of strangers was powerful that night

On this day last year, the international press reported on the green cars failure to proceed
I would like to reiterate, the Volvo was simply practicing an unscheduled Scandinavian meditation.

90% of pickup truck ownership is just expensive blue-collar cosplay. If you want to dress up like a Construction Worker and a Cowboy that badly, just get the hardhat,leather chaps and start a Village People cover band

Size isn’t measured by the footprint you leave, but by the places you dare to go. The trusty Panda proves once again that you don't need an SUV to conquer the winter. Watching the sky turn into fire over the frozen coast, grateful for this little machine with the soul of a giant. #TBT #Maine

A brand new Fiat Panda in France £8,500
The same sized car in the UK? Twice the price!
It’s painful seeing how affordable motoring outside Britain We need a return to genuine "entry-level" pricing in the UK car market. Who else is tired of £20k being the new "cheap"???

160bhp in a 1100kg car "slow." ??
But in a world where a soccer mom's 2.5ton EV hits 60mph in 3.5s while she sips a pumpkin spice latté, has the concept of "fast" been ruined?
