I sponsored this student team from Afeka College of Engineering by doing the car’s graphics. They completed the 24hr solar race at Zolder in Belgium over the weekend, coming first of the rookies. Amazing achievement for them youtu.be/HGqdeEi8rmI

This YouTube channel keeps doing great videos about odd cars that I have a particular affinity for and history with and it’s getting weird. He recently covered the Matra Rancho, Fiat X1/9, Isuzu Piazza, and Lego 8860, and he’s now done the first car I drove, the Seat Ibiza youtu.be/V03fg1gjhC8

I don’t want a new Muppet Show from people looking for a premise. How is it possible that there are 8 billion people in the world who all know what The Muppet Show is about but this is being handled by the only 7 people who don’t?!

The only folding phone I’d want back. From a purely tactile and form-factor point of view this Ericsson T28 was my favourite phone. Small, solid, ergonomic, and looked and felt great. Don’t know how you’d get it to work or make sense as a modern smartphone but it’s still peak cellphone design to me

Big hit for Leclerc, glad he got out but he looks pretty shaken

Saw one of my favourite bands, Monica Sex, (yes that’s the band name), at a free craft fair this morning. They were huge in 90s Israel, still are. This is kind of the equivalent of seeing The Manic Street Preachers at a village fete

Post a picture of you from another era 📸 21 years old, 1996, all dreams and plans while living the moment. “those few excruciating and exhilarating days during which naïveté and wisdom stare each other down, before they strike whatever truce, in your life, keeps you from imploding"

Just seen that I’m heavily quoted in this article. Coincidentally I’ve recently been discussing ideas for a new police car design

“Nir” actually means a ploughed field, ready for planting. This is an old tool used for making a Nir. It was a popular name in 1970s Israel and has had a recent resurgence post 7th October following the destruction to communities like Nir Oz and need for regrowth from that raw potential of a Nir

An old plough tool for towing behind a tractor

Been helping the Afeka College of Engineering team with their solar racing car. The students designed it as a low drag teardrop so I helped out with the graphics. Masked it up this afternoon, the black bits here are still just Photoshop, so that the painter knows what to do tomorrow

60 years ago today probably the most significant, influential album ever was released. It is hard to imagine how Revolver must have sounded in 1966, but Mad Men did a reasonable job of trying to explain that this was the moment the 60s actually began. "Start with this one" youtu.be/6OquASU1y5A

I think that what we really need is Gonzo, Fozzie, and Bunsen doing Top Gear (even though we all know that Animal is the best driver and has an epic collection of old Ferraris)

The Gameboy is now older than Matchbox cars were when the Gameboy came out. And quite a bit older than Lego bricks and the Hula Hoop

My daughter is doing a survival course. It’s good to know that if our lives are ever in danger, and the only escape route is across a body of water, and all we have is some rope, bamboo, 16 wooden pallets, and 24 empty oil drums, that she’ll be able to build us a raft

Nir Kahn @nirkahn.bsky.social · 26/07/2026

Really nicely done video about the X1/9, telling the whole story from its 60s origins to the new Bertone Runabout. I had a 1978 X1/9 Lido when I was a student in the 90s and I still miss it. Great, fun, and actually very cleverly designed little car

you could do a really heartwarming Muppet F1 movie. Kermit's in charge of a struggling team, just trying to keep the factory lights on with janitor Frank the dog warning him about bailiffs while Gonzo and Rizzo try to convince him to let them do unconventional aerodynamic testing.

@ajpbradley.bsky.social @crackedwindscreen.bsky.social Did no one answer the Audi 80/90 question? Weren’t the 80s all 4-cyl and the 90s 5-cyl?

Can we take a moment to appreciate that it’s 2026 and there’s another new Rolling Stones record with the same energy that they’ve always had. Most 60s bands didn’t see out the 70s. The Stones are still going in their 80s

Mel Brooks is 100 years old today. Remember, they could never make Blazing Saddles today. Because it would have been criticised for being woke.
