    Differences between UK and USA

    As I'm doing more and more stuff with the US, I'm seeing so many things that the do differently to us. Besides to obvious stuff (guns, politics, religion etc), I can't quite work out why for two countries which are so similar are so different in so many ways. I thought I would make a thread as...

    This can't be right surely? Your takeaway on finance!

    I've just come across an article that says you can now pay for your Deliveroo takeaway on finance! (also known as Klarna). Does that not strike you as wrong on so many levels? I don't even know where to start on this one...

    My old 4200

    Still think it looks lovely! The interior is a bit Marmite but I loved that car. Even though it was a bit of a money pit. https://www.autotrader.co.uk/car-details/202208239064825

    Next Stop Recession?

    The US stock market is now officially a Bear market. https://www.cnbc.com/2022/06/14/what-experts-say-to-do-during-a-bear-market.html Does this mean we’re about to ‘officially’ go into recession? As unofficially we’ve been in one for a while.

    Bird Scarers

    Living near the coast I should know that there will be an increased likelihood of seagulls cr*pping on our cars. However, they have taken to nesting on the roofs of ours and our neighbours houses which means that the flying vermin cr*p all day every day on our cars. Apparently we're not allowed...

    Maserati Cycling gear

    I know there are a few cyclists amongst us, and I know previously you could get Maserati kit which, for a while was like trying to get hold of parts for their old cars. Unobtainable. However, clothing manufacturer Pella have now released a range of Maserati licensed cycling gear, should you...

    Before I do something sensible....

    'Cheap' 4200 Spyder

    https://www.autotrader.co.uk/car-details/202110098301204?fromSavedAds=true&advertising-location=at_cars Looks like it needs a bit of work (steering wheel and seats) but also looks rather lovely from the outside. Cheapest Spyder I've seen in a while.

    Bianco Fuji Strad

    I'm sure I've seen this mentioned elsewhere previously, probably because they're asking top money (although it is a low mileage very late one), but I can't find a thread. https://www.autotrader.co.uk/car-details/202109026919787?fromSavedAds=true&advertising-location=at_cars It got me thinking...

    McLaren 570S/GT

    I keep seeing a 570S or a GT (I don't know what the difference is) near me, and it obviously shifts as it absolutely obliterated me coming down the slip road onto the M20 yesterday! Not that the Jag is even remotely in the same league! :mock8: It even sounded good! :oops: So I assume an...
