Too many cars 🤣

No, but that's excellent!

Ha, I've looked at that a few times!

A clearer photo of the size comparison between my Silver Shadow and this new Rolls Royce Spectre. I'd be curious to drive them back to back and see which is more relaxing

Agreed, they're both good options

Classic or modern? Which would you drive?

Essentially to cover 4,485 miles from when it was serviced on 15/12/25 at 98,274 miles - and do it before 15/6/26. Nothing too major, the mileage far more important than the date

I've missed driving it!

luden-classics.bsky.social @luden-classics.bsky.social · 18/01/2026
A weekend in Norfolk, and I even got to sit in the back the whole time! At this point we're over half way on my 4,485 mile challenge, and I think the parts cost is under £0.70/mile, meaning there's a chance for some more work in the near future...

Certainly did, and this is after someone reversed into it early in the year and nearly wrote it off too! 🤦🏻‍♂️

The benefit of having a narrow car 🤣

It had a very rough 2025!

A lot of work has gone into the Bentley to get it running again. We had the new amplifiers and other parts last year, then a new fuel tank, along with a pump, pipes, serviced and plenty of other bits and pieces. The result is that it runs sweeter than ever, and I can't wait to drive it again.

I've got a brand new Rolls Royce! 🤣

🤣 I'll just use the Bentley

Many times, and that is a great pair!

Perfectly liveable I think!

All cars should have red dials, it's one thing BMW got right

All Lexus are sensible, surely!

Filled up at 100,100 miles. Furthest distance on one tank (so far) of 293 miles and best economy of 13.4mpg

They're pretty good to be fair, although being dirty does make them less effective

luden-classics.bsky.social @luden-classics.bsky.social · 13/01/2026
There's nothing to get, because no one actually needs a Rolls Royce, much less to drive through puddles

luden-classics.bsky.social @luden-classics.bsky.social · 13/01/2026
What you really need for miserable weather and flooding roads is a Rolls Royce 🤣

Good choices

luden-classics.bsky.social @luden-classics.bsky.social · 09/01/2026
Yes, I can quite imagine why you wish you hadn't sold it. Fortunately I don't think I've regretted selling any car so far!
010
luden-classics.bsky.social @luden-classics.bsky.social · 09/01/2026
I would suggest that is a very solid choice. Still an itch I need to scratch!

What's your ideal two car garage?

A gorgeous AC Aceca on Wimbledon high street. So elegant

Last week the Shadow's gearbox seemed to be slipping a little, so today it's getting a service. Internals look good, no unusual smells though the filter was somewhat clogged. Perversely, I'm really enjoying having work done to this and improving it. More on a little automotive challenge soon...

Possibly a bit cold to have the roof down yesterday, but what a pretty thing a Series 1 E-Type is.

luden-classics.bsky.social @luden-classics.bsky.social · 29/12/2025
From that ad it looks like a lot of cosmetic work but not so much mechanical. I'd want to see a suspension refresh in there really

Nice to see other classics out at this time of year.

This dog definitely does care about fancy cars. Sat in the back of a Rolls Royce and still believes he has a hard life

luden-classics.bsky.social @luden-classics.bsky.social · 27/12/2025
Yesterday the Shadow rolled past 1,000 miles since its service last week. Next goal is rolling it over the 100,000 mile mark

Ah QP?

luden-classics.bsky.social @luden-classics.bsky.social · 27/12/2025
Was it the Acoma? That's the only beige one I can remember. Other than that it's a wide guess!

I'm going to call this an early Christmas present. My Turbo R is finally back up and running after we discovered the fuel tank needed replacing what feels like ages ago. Very pleased, I cannot wait to drive it again

luden-classics.bsky.social @luden-classics.bsky.social · 24/12/2025
Certainly does 👍🏻

luden-classics.bsky.social @luden-classics.bsky.social · 24/12/2025
It is a lovely thing to be able to do. I think I'm at roughly 750 miles in the Shadow in the past week
010
luden-classics.bsky.social @luden-classics.bsky.social · 24/12/2025
Got repaired, covered some more miles and then had my first ever breakdown in it. Ignition amplifier was kaput, and also the tank needed replacing. Tanks not available, so had to have one made, which is being fitted as I type
