Hello everyone! It's my pleasure to request the company of as many of you as would like, to come to my wedding on Saturday 21st January in Poole, Dorset. We want to fill the church, so please help! For us, the most important part of the day is certainly the ceremony, which will be lively and...

Hi folks! As many of you know, I'm getting married soon, and the thread title tells you it'll be on 21st January. The wedding is in Poole and the reception in Bournemouth. I'd really love to have some interesting cars used for various parts of the wedding party and hope that some of you may...

Some of you have seen this post of mine from Wednesday night in the "What are you drinking now" thread. Well, it's not just a random opening of extra special champagne. QUOTE="MrPea, post: 938876, member: 5188"] Because it's Wednesday night. Back in 2014 I was flying home from visiting...

Hi everyone! Next month I turn 40 and I've booked out my local on the evening of the 19th February. It would be great to have a bundle of you there to celebrate with me. More details to follow soon as I finalise details with the landlord. If people want to stay nearby then I'll suggest some...

Thanks to TG posting this... some of you will certainly enjoy going through the pictures of old Sainsbury's carparks and doing some classic car spotting: https://sainsburyarchive.org.uk/catalogue/search/search/ewao-with_image:on--ewao-everywhere:car-park

Hey folks, If any of you are in need of something to do on the evening of Saturday 14th March, Oxford is a reasonable destination for you and you like choral music, then I'd be chuffed to have some of you nutters come to a performance. I'm doing a couple of the baritone solos. 7:30pm at St...

Hello hive mind of useful miscellany! I want to give a few hundred quid to my godson who is having his dedication ceremony (similar to christening). I want it to be something for him to use for himself later in life and for it to give some sort of return before he uses it. What options do you...

So here's my new toy... I'm super chuffed. C250d 4matic 9G-Tronic Sport Premium Plus. Slips off the tongue, doesn't it? All the toys, amazingly comfy, uses half the fuel of the Focus ST and is quicker. It has loads of torques... 500Nm!

I'm off to see Muse in Paris on the first weekend of July. My second ticket is unspoken for. Anyone fancy joining me? I've got the tickets and have booked a couple of hotel rooms in walking distance from the Stade de France so all that remains to organise is transport. Please PM me of you're...

Hi Chaps, As mentioned on the Raceglaze thread, I bought a similar thing from another site for less dosh and asked them for a forum group-buy offer or discount. They've come good for us! This is the response I received: "I can offer a generic 10% discount for a period of 1 month, so you can...

Hi folks, I thought it worthy of mentioning how pleased and impressed I am by the service I've received from Christian Lewis in Bedford, and particularly from Ed Blasi, the Maserati guru. After a couple of recommendations from here - Thanks Zep - I went to visit CL as at the time they were...

Hi folks, My car gathered some rather unexpected attention at the weekend. This chap seemed particularly intrigued so I beckoned him over. Turns out he's had a 228 from brand new bought on a whim as bankrupt stock from the folding dealer in 1986. He was still a teenager (!!!) so couldn't ever...

Hi folks, I'm going to get myself a runabout for the summer over the weekend and the cars of interest are all at dealers. I can buy outright but I've read with interest some of the comments on this forum about "always buy a car with at least some finance" so that you can have recourse to the...

Hi folks, I need a good detailer who would be willing to come to my home to assess my car's paintwork before committing to the full detail. The reason for this is that after my last service, two small blobs (stamp sized) of what look like dark blue overspray appeared on one panel. My...

I'm having lunch in Mersault and just happened upon two delectable automobiles. One of them has nothing on it to help identify it... Can anyone help? The second, it's clear, but I'd be remiss not to show it to you all.

Hey folks, Yesterday I noticed that the classifieds on this forum now has advertised a 2002 Spyder CC Cat B for breaking. Take a look... that's what a tank-slapper and aquaplaning can do to your car.

I was introduced to this giant orange in Montreal this evening. A rather "enlightening" VW Club meet was going on. Anyway, it seems to operate with similar class and haute cuisine to Ace. I thought you'd be amused to see it, and is been going for easily 50 years. There must be other great...

I popped down to Poole today, to see Martin and Myles at Emblem to give my car a check over while she's still under warrantee in case there are any things that need addressing that I don't need to pay for myself. All in all, Myles thought Myfanwy is in excellent condition - and I'd expect...

Well, here's an interesting thing. Maserati infotainment powered by Android Auto for cars! http://www.theverge.com/2016/5/18/11704960/google-qualcomm-maserati-future-of-android-cars

http://www.pistonheads.com/classifieds/used-cars/maserati/spyder/maserati-spyder-90th-anniversary-------------2005/5641072?v=c I don't recall seeing this made not of on the forum as yet. Go on, somebody, snap it up! For anyone who hasn't seen one of these, if you're interested in a Spyder...
