My dream car. If I could have any car at all, period, this exact one would be it.

The emotional side of things It’s what non-car people don’t get. They see all cars as just a ton and a half, two tons of wires, glass, metal, and rubber, and that’s all they see. People like you or I know. We have an unshakable belief that cars are living entities. You can develop a relationship with a car and that’s what non-car people don’t get. When something has foibles and won’t handle properly, that gives it a particularly human quality because it makes mistakes, and that’s how you can build a relationship with a car that other people won’t get. -Jeremy Clarkson
The emotional side of things - in this case, cars and trucks. This is the problem with most modern cars - they were designed based on spreadsheets and financial analysis. They have no heart. No soul.

Gotta admit that I love these old cars. I especially love mine - which I need to get back to work on and get back on the road. #ADO16 #BritishCars #MG1100 #Austin1100 #BLMC1100 #MINI #VandenPlasPrincess #VDP1100 #JustBritish

The image shows three toy diecast cars being held in the hand. The first one is a rover SD one sedan from matchbox. The second is a Land Rover Safari edition from matchbox and the third one is a Morgan three wheeler from hot wheels.
Ok, I may be a British car geek, and a big kid who likes toys, but I feel like I hit the jackpot this morning at Walmart. #rover #morgan #landrover #hotwheels #matchbox #BritishCars #JustBritish
This book looks fantastic. I love vintage car photography.

Developed in collaboration with McLaren Automotive and the McLaren Formula 1 Team, the Px8 S2 McLaren Edition unites Bowers & Wilkins’ acoustic expertise with McLaren’s design and engineering excellence. The third headphone in the partnership has an elevated focus on performance, reflecting the shared values of McLaren and Bowers & Wilkins. It features the latest noise cancellation technology, effectively reducing unwanted sound without compromising musical clarity. Audio performance is enhanced by upgraded bespoke 40mm Carbon Cone drive units with redesigned chassis, voice coil, suspension and magnet systems. Each driver is precisely angled towards the listener’s ears to ensure accurate imaging and stereo definition. Bowers & Wilkins and McLaren worked closely to weave McLaren’s design identity throughout, combining signature papaya accents with an Anthracite Grey finish. Subtle Speedmark details feature on the headband and earcups, while diamond-cut edges on the elliptical logo plates and soft Nappa leather across the headband and cushions complete the luxurious design. Following the Pi8 McLaren Edition launch earlier this year, the Px8 S2 McLaren Edition will be available to consumers from 19th November, combining their passion for high performance audio technology and their love for the McLaren Formula 1 Team. “This exciting new edition of our exceptional Px8 S2 headphones perfectly celebrates our long-term partnership with McLaren and gives fans another industry-leading audio product showcasing McLaren’s design DNA to express their passion for their team.” Giles Pocock, Vice President of Brand Marketing, Bowers & Wilkins
I like a good set of headphones as much as anyone. And of course love great music. And great British cars. But... $899 for a pair of Bowers & Wilkins limited edition McLaren headphones seems a bit, um, excessive? #music #mclaren #justbritish #britishcars #bowerswilkins #headphones
Peter Egan is a fantastic writer on cars, motorcycles, airplanes, boats and life in general. Retired now from Road & Track, he just released a new book. This time it is about flying cross country in an old Piper Cub back in the '80s. Can't wait to read it.

The MINI Cooper Rules of the Road. #1 is Always park next to a MINI. There is safety in numbers. Backing in is preferred. #2 Wave at other MINIs! And so on ..
The rule of MINI ownership. Or perhaps we should consider them more like "guidelines" ...

Picture shows a dark blue 1968 Vanden Plas Princess 1300 4-door sedan parked on a street. The front license plate readers “PRINCESS68”. On the large front grill is a badge from the British Car Club of Charleston, SC.
Ran into a friend downtown yesterday. I spotted his car first because it is like mine. His is a blue, 1968, 1300 Vanden Plas Princess while mine is green, 66, 1100. Rare cars over here and wild that two would live so close to each other. #BritishCar #VintageCar #ClassicCar #VandenPlas #JustBritish
A blue and white MInI Cooper S four door parked next to a white and black MINI Cooper Clubman S in a small parking lot.
Rule #1 of MINI driving? When parking, if you can park beside another MINi the always do so. #MINi #MINICooper #cars #BritishCars #JustBritish #CooperS #Rule1
Wow, what a labor of love. #vintagecar #justbritish #britishcars #wolseley
Image is of two die-cast toy cars still in package. The one on the left is a yellow Hot Wheels Land Rover Defender, and the one on the right is a blue Matchbox Morgan plus Four Roadster.
Found cool card while grocery shopping! And before you ask, yes. I am a big kid. Love this new Hot Wheels Land Rover Defender, and Morgan roadsters are some of my favorite cars of all time. #justbritish #britishcars #toycars #matchbox #hotwheels #landrover #morgancars #morganplus4 #defender
I should not even be looking at this!! But oh so cool. I love old Morgans. To be truthful, I love Morgans of all ages. #cars #morgan #morgancars #britishcars #justbritish #temptation #vintagecars
Image is if a Sherwood Gree 1966 Vanden Plas Princess 1100, right-hand-drive, positive-earth, and only about 40k miles on her. A very small 4 door British sedan with large chrome grill.
This is Catherine, my 1966 Vanden Plas Princess 1100, right-hand-drive, positive-earth, and only about 40k miles on her. Unfortunately off the road right now for some work, but she will be back soon! #Catherine #britishcars #vandenplas #mg #austin #vdp1100 #justbritish #a-series #minicars #morris

The MGB RV8 is such a cool car. I am drooling over this one at auction. I will be very interested to see what it sells for - which will be way out of my budget no matter what the final number is!

Image is of the 12 inch final LP album titled MG just for the record. In front of it is a red coffee mug with keep calm and carry on, and beside that is a small model of an MGBGT. To the right side of that is a Kenwood stereo system with a pioneer turntable on top. All of this sits on a wooden bookcase. The album which is a recording of MG car sounds and factory. Interviews is actually in a glass and black metal frame.
A totally different kind of LP for #NowSpinning one side of this record is all sounds of MG cars from the factory. The other side has interviews. A rare find with a limited market. And I love it! #vinyl #lp #records #mgcars #mgb #mga #sportscars #britishcars #justbritish
