Living in Chelmsford, but only for 16 years, found out some stuff I didn’t know. Keen visitors of Colchester here, too – which never fails to disappoint. #Essex
Lovely day out with a friend in Colchester today: found a restaurant named after me, a surviving Wimpy, some saccharine signage, and bumped into @JonShenanigans who was busy filming!
A ‘wrong’ day made a little bit right by a Matchbox haul and the latest copy of @classicretromod – out now! – in which the MBX #Volvo 240 could star…
New issue alert! And this must be the only magazine to ever feature a Proton Satria GTI (or just #Proton #GTI) on the cover, yes?
Issue 27 is coming soon. Order online before Wednesday evening for free delivery.

The Volkswagen Derby (Polo saloon) in the bottom left-hand corner, please… ✅👇🏻 #VW
It’s Sunday, so retro TV night, and an old One Foot In The Grave. @t2stu, is this a 1960s Beetle bumper that Margaret is wrestling with from the loft? #VW
I think there may well be a few dirty cars at @Takona_official Coffees & Cars in Sawbridgeworth tomorrow (mine included, not washed since it got dirty going to the last meet!) due to the unrelenting rain that wasn’t forecast…

Sold and built in India and Brazil, the Virtus is based on the sixth-generation Polo – and is even called the Polo Sedan in South Africa – and @vwbrasil has created a special one-off ‘convertible’ version of the car. @Motor1com has the story (and images): motor1.com/news/707476/volks…

If you’re Northamptonshire way it’ll be good to see you there.
Tonight's the night! As part of our #TimetoTalk celebrations, we're hosting a special car event @WorkbridgeUK to encourage everyone - especially young men - to come along and talk about mental health. Come along! #WeAreSTAH

Wind power is both renewable and free, and looks set to play a future role in #marine #decarbonisation strategies. In the current issue of @EHMmagazine, I look at the some of the latest wind-assisted propulsion vessel projects. Read online at ehm.mydigitalpublication.com…
It's not just cars that are going electric, the marine sector is, too. In the latest issue of @EHMmagazine I look at off-shore charging solutions, and how through continued collaboration and development, workable technology will soon be a reality. ehm.mydigitalpublication.com…
Interesting and unexpected ‘presents’ from @renault_uk today (thank you!). Nicely presented and packed, though I think it missed a trick by not putting the new 5 on the mug itself… #EV
