I couldn't possibly choose an album.

Never competed in motorsport, but I was a test driver for a BTCC Chevrolet Lacetti for a season as the driver reckoned, 'you're slow as shit, but you've got a unique understanding of the handling and balance of a car.'

French onion soup. I kill it.

And the best food ever was a paella in a dirty little local restaurant in Barcelona. Bloody fantastic.

No cheating, only answer off the top of your head...

What is the torque spec for Rover V8 heads?

What sports car company occasionally used the same window switches as Range Rover Classics in the late 80's/early 90's?

How many Doctors have there really been?

R380 or 4hp22?

The 'Quattro' air dam on the RS6. It makes the car less discrete and I think it removes from the aesthetics of the whole package.

I worked at a rover shop for almost 3 years. When I started there, used engines could be had for under $1k. They've since tripled and are very difficult to find in good running condition. We never went longer than a month without replacing an engine because the block had cracked or dropped a liner. We often tried head gaskets and checked the heads for cracks and all sorts of stuff, but it was often just shit blocks. They would consume coolant aggressively and over-pressurize the cooling system. We had dozens of junk engines sitting on shelves in the back of the shop. But on the plus side, they're great for coffee tables because they don't weigh very much!

I know it was played regularly through my childhood, into the mid 90's at least.

As kids we use to come up with variations of this commercial where Tootsie was trying out new center fillings.

"Hey, Mr. Owl. How many licks does it take to get to the center of a Grizzle Pop?"

"Let's Find out. 1....2.....splorch! BLLLAAAAAAARGGGGGGGGHHHHHHHH!!!!"

Euro 'trucks' and US 'trucks' fall into quite different categories, but I've driven an F-350 Super Duty before, and apart from the body roll it was a good bit of fun! I've driven countless pickups like L200s and Hiluxs, but never what we call a 'truck'. And yes; I like trucks.

Fiat Punto MK1 '60', my parents went 50/50 with me and it was one of the best for insurance. And perhaps more crucially, I was able to fit into it.

Bought a Series III first as a work vehicle about 5 years ago, and then got far too attached to it so retired it (from heavy work) and bought a Defender. I used to have a Discovery 4 too. It's not something I can really put my finger on, but for all of their little quirks and disadvantages, I absolutely adore them. I tend to keep mine down to brutal basics, rather than dressing them up with chequer-plate and aftermarket add-ons as seems to be the trend.

Sorry, not a great pic of the Series, I'm prepping it for paint atm so it's stuck in my barn.
