    Spare wheel...some thoughts!

    Ok, so I picked up a puncture today on a rear tyre.....the sealant approach failed - no surprise. Jacked up the car and got the old tyre on ( thanks SportsItalia for using a torque wrench on those bolts!) and the foam boot liner made a great groundsheet to lay on. Inflated the new space saver...

    Green Card Insurance - Monaco

    The normally excellent Admiral Multicar insurance has let me down. Their Green Card does not Cover Monaco and you cant even pay an extra to have it covered. Does anyone know where I can get cover for the three days I plan to be there?

    Phoenix Bespoke Keys

    Well, the blue cheese crumbled and having repaired my key - and having toyed with the replacements on eBay (the blades on the Chinese ones often snap in the ignition I am told) I plumped for Phoenix. They transfer and secure all the internals into the new housing and then can do whatever you...

    SM Big Brake Kit - QP V Sport GT S

    I visited @Gazcw who contacted me to sell me the SM Big Brake kit and even fitted it - what a decent chap. First off, the QP V S he is selling looks cracking - it deserves to go to a good home. Secondly, he was pumped up on anti-histamines to prevent any hives from my red calipers - thank god...

    Maserati to return to racing....

    When I heard this, was it just me wondering if the Alfa Romeo F1 team will be rebranded to Maserati? Seems to be essential for premium brands such as Mercedes, Ferrrari,Aston Martin and McLaren....and would probably align better with FCA’s strategy...

    The new Ghibli

    I was driving the QPV GT S through Switzerland yes in convoy with a new Ghibli S. A few thoughts struck me - first, it’s a menacing bugger on your tail with running lights on. Two - it’s quick, we “played” and I had to hustle to keep up (wife and daughter not happy) and 3 it’s rear looks have...
