Delighted to announce that @TimRodie will be joining Lisa and me on the Bridgestone Stage at #ABRFestival.
Adventure rider, storyteller, YouTuber and occasional seeker of muddy lanes and questionable decisions. This one's going to be fun.

Got the ferry for the first time in years. Turns out I’m not the only one fed up with Eurotunnel’s prices

Looking a car with ability, desirability, equipment, and a reasonable price? Here’s how to get nearly-new Ford Puma for less than £19,000 🤩 autocar.co.uk/car-news/used-…
I drove the updated-for-2024 facelifted Kia Sorento a few weeks ago. As far as 7 seaters go, it’s bloomin’ good. So good, I actually bothered writing about it: motorpoint.co.uk/car-reviews… @KiaUKPR
Just got our first used BMW i5 in stock at work… £50k now, was £78420 5700 miles ago. Holy depreciation motorpoint.co.uk/vehicle-det…

It’s not often I write a review of a car while also trying to man-maths my way into buying one, but the updated MX-5 has lodged itself in my brain like a vibrating gear knob. Oh look there’s my review: motorpoint.co.uk/car-reviews…
Happily this isn’t an April Bollocks: hit 25k subscribers on the car channel last night with my first-ever Mazda review. Updated MX-5 should be available on prescription.

A mildly challenging day battling driving rain, a slippery track, an anxious brain and my inability to use 207hp. Cracking day at the BMW Performance Academy being taught by @JoshBrookes (not pictured!)… 📸 @JamieMorris19

Been out filming the new Skoda Sue Perkins and it’s bloomin good (again). Lovely to be driving a diesel estate on a launch in 2024 - love a 900-mile range. Video waffling here: youtu.be/CwAc1rDUL0Q?si=r1UP…
Could I fall in love with the 360hp Peugeot 508 PSE estate? Almost… not quite though. Details of my sordid affair here: youtube.com/watch?v=Ox09in7_…
Has anyone else’s YouTube layout changed, with comments/description stuck all the way to the right, with suggested videos where they used to be? Quite annoying… presume it’s some kind of split testing by the YT overlords
Don't buy a Trident! Or at least until you’ve watched my 2024 Triumph Street Triple R review and heard my giggling

I quite like this.
Here's the new Dacia Spring!
This'll be the UK's cheapest (proper) EV at £17k
Would you buy one?

Frankfurt looks a lot nicer than I remember. The facelifted Skoda Kamiq is rather good at being very sensible. – at Frankfurt on the Main, Germany
For some reason at work we have a brown Kia Sorento in stock on a 72 plate with 22 miles on it. Kinda want it… motorpoint.co.uk/vehicle-det…
