I thought I read something about them doing facial recognition ages ago. Didn't pay much attention as there's as much chance of one of them appearing on my door as a french car on my driveway.

George Orwell wasn't far off the mark .... 

Ring are looking at a service for lost dogs . Using our Ring cameras

How long before facial recognition comes in for us humans 

I have three of them and a fourth I cannot currently get to work…….

It was my 'A' series engine that laid a real, thick, blue smoke trail, every time I deaccelerated then accelerated, until that uncle taught how to replace the very worn and broken valves!!

The problem here was that the valve stem rubber seals would become hard and would start riding up and down on the valve stem, instead of staying in the recess designed to hold them in place. On my van, I used to lay a smoke trail deliberately, by doing what you describe, if someone was sat too close behind me. 

With my A40 the problem was two valves had chunks missing out of them and as a 10year old car, in those days, it was worn out!  It also had a body that was not attached to the chassis as the sills and cross members, especially under the passenger seat, had rotted away, with holes in the wings.  It still passed the MOT twice though!!   That car was a bargain as it cost me just £30, which I recouped when someone knocked on my door and offered me £30 for the number!    Great days indeed!

If the last car on earth was made by Stellantis I'd rather walk, so not bothered what form of dead dinosaur they burn.

You'll be ok, Kevin, the gay jag will be along soon 

I have to say I've been looking at used F-Type recently. A proper Jag. . I can't really justify buying one but.......

The new Jag will probably only be sold to the LGBTQ+ community. Jaguar have made it quite clear they have no interest in straight white men.

We have a program internally to extend ICE life ( it is already reported in the news)

Yes. But will you be able to sell them in the UK, that's the question.

Another week, so Chiltern oppsing Railways again.

Piss up and brewery spring to mind

That just goes to show how corrupt the lefties are that we're expected to just suck it up whenever they try to pull a fast one.

It's almost worth voting Reform as a Thank You.

I'm sure many will come May.

Planet killing soot chucker's should meet the same end as the dinosaur.

Nothing used to hear me up more when I was in the Battlebus - before DTM fixed it - of lifting then flooring the throttle, covering the car following too close behind in a cloud of soot.

I always used to chuckle


Wasn't half as much fun after DTM made the Battlebus work properly, but was a damn site quicker

A mate of mine bought 2 minis for £50 back when we were young, with the idea of making one good one. One was an 850 with rather poor piston rings. At one point, we were being tailgated by some tawt in a white convertible rolls royce. He dropped it down a cog and let it overrun for a second, then floored it and he disappeared in a plume of blue smoke. Kept his distance after that!
