    Default This is like the happiest news story I've ever read in my life.

    Including the mid-90s when everything was perfect.

    I got through more paragraphs than I thought I would before I stopped caring entirely. If there's an interesting point to the article, please state it so I can stop skimming over car names that mean nothing to me.

    Glorious stuff

    Quite heartening to know that there are people in the US who recognise a Bentley when they see one...

    I've got a soft spot for rare and exotic vehicles. We see very few high-price supercars here, so they're always something of a treat for a low-level car nut like myself.

    I can easily see how a Hindu who regularly engages in brazen idolatry could get behind this, but I'm against the materialistic deification of cars going on there.

    Who cares about cars when there's good quality jet aircraft at your local military airstrip?

    Quoted for truth. Cars are ok - and if you get a really nice one it's a hell of a thing, but only the very best ones can actually match jet fighters and whatnot.

    The best news ever was years ago, in the 50's or something, on the BBC when the announcer said 'There has been no news today. Here is some music'.
    I remember it personally, being 4000 years old. I listened it to on my talkie-box.
