Things always look different at night.

The Prius dashboard has a nice ambience about it.

The Brighton i360 looks like a space penis.

Sporty two-tone paint. Only by Tetroseal.

And perfect for wood and plastic cars.

I feel their passion. I love a sticker or 2.

Today I'm racing around in a Prius. Trolley dash in a B&M: CHECK.

Being nerdy and reading the owners hsnd book. Nothing exciting about that parcel shelf?? I've got an idea (more another time) and something does read right about this.

I read the title for this and thought "nah mate, a kitchen and bed are what you EXPECT in a campervan"

However, if that rear unit is the kitchen, I'd want my money back. The children's A La Cart Kitchen looks more impressive.

I was watching Auto Shenanigans upload on the ringways.

Always puzzled me as to why there was this odd bit on the M23. And where it went. Lived in Croydon for 40 years and never had a clue.....until:

One thing l won't do on my few views channel Driven It is use AI of any description.

So WTF is this AI reply rubbish? My replies come from me, not AI.

I didn't know Nissan offered a funeral conversion for its dead quiet Leaf.

And what l want to know is, what the fuck is Coffin Spray?

Always thought it was a total travesty when the hinges rear plate on a Mini was deleted

One of those novel features that would amuse me.

The POS Visa still wears his like a badge of honour that this was the last time he hit the road.

For that you'd want a Racer Berlinetta.

Playing with 3 Fiat 850's. All making a bold grab at my heart. And all with unique little delicious details.

Which one would l take home? That's tricky. I'm still unsure.

Words to appear in Auto Italia magazine.

I'm out with Auto Italia magazine tomorrow doing something that's going to be quite exciting for me.

Looking at facelifts and despite a love for pop-ups, the 84-93 Dodge Daytona was ruined with its 87 facelift.

This is still one of the BEST closing lines of any film. Christine.

And times to perfection.

From the archives of fancy dress, someone said my Franke N Furter looked more like Anita Dobson.

Happy Halloween. Don't have nightmares.

Are the Coronel brothers ok?

Haven't seen them on this platform and I'm worried. Worried who they are daily following and unfollowing?

Suddenly coming out gay is so overrated and 'duh' sooooooo last century.

And also not as bad as falling in love with AI.

Anyway, when l told people about MY Toby, they thought l was fucking mad.

Meet Toby.

Well that's a first.....but l might try it.

Going a bit VW T2 crazy this week.

If you like VW's little Baywindow wagon, you may like what I've got coming up.

*EUROBEAT INTENSIFIES

Junction 28 of the M25 in Essex opened the final bit of on-road construction - a brand-new free flow loop road.

For anyone travelling from the M25 anticlockwise to the A12 eastbound, you can now skip the roundabout completely.

Unless you were able to do slut-drops at any given moment, the MK1 Golf Cabriolet was just atrocious. And backbreaking to load and unload.

And to think a better Jetta based booted version was also developed.
