Meet Rolf

Still haven’t had a chance to detail the 850R I bought way back in June, which is why I’m only posting these now. Can’t believe I’ve had it over 6 months.

Wonderful car, perfect for 2 child seats and a boot-full of buggies and bags, or 200kg of wood pellets, or simply pissing it down country roads.

Loads of work to do though, there’s definitely a(nother) boost leak somewhere, and the brakes need to be upgraded, and it needs a bluetooth head, and, and…

Here it is in the IKEA car park the day I picked it up.

More pics after I’ve had it detailed.

’71 Skyline / LS400 V8

Harry Metcalfe in the One-77

I want to say I want one, but even my vivid imagination can’t concoct a scenario in which it could happen. Such a wonderful car, and that’s from someone utterly bored of Astons. Well, bored of looking at them…

No idea of the original source, but it made me laugh because there’s always one of the Cozy Cars outside my window….
