Driving this ID Buzz GTX around today. Best version of the Buzz I’ve driven but can’t help but find it a little disappointing to drive (even with 340 bhp)

Correct 🙂 Delivered a car to him today. James is so much nicer to deal with than the large chains.

Just watching the Ferrari Challenge, found myself watching the wiper patterns rather than the racing. Driver’s side is interesting but definitely a triangle of doom going on. @hubnut.bsky.social I blame you! 😂

So what were you driving 30 years ago? In 1995 I was driving an 88 VW Golf GTI 8v (wipers correct for RHD and no quarter lights)

Today I’m living the joys of electric motoring. 400 miles plus round trip to do.

All wheels welcome with @hubnut.bsky.social 😂. I can’t find a picture of my favourite car of that day…a Citroen AX with a Saxo VTS engine. I also seem to remember a good selection of JDM there too.

4 years ago today, attended my 1st Hubnut Social @hubnut.bsky.social @misshubnut.bsky.social It was a great day out with my son, showing what is now his daily driver (the Fiesta!).

@hubnut.bsky.social @upndown.bsky.social Does the hyping option on YouTube have any noticeable effect for creators?

Thanks @upndown.bsky.social that’s my service history complete….probably added thousands to the value 😂

9 years since I bought the Fiesta 1.6 Zetec S (to replace my ST170), 3 years since I gifted it to my son for his 17th birthday. 69k on the clock and a strong 139bhp on the dyno. youtu.be/CvvaM2CVJAU?... Still looks good to me 🙂

Not bad for a 200bhp+ hot hatch. Perfect size for Welsh roads too (now back in Dorset)
