    Neil's F40 in the man cave is impressive, and his faithful dog on the old leather settee - is priceless. I know which one Neil will cry over if he ever loses, either.

    Chris, if you wish you had a weekly column, why not do a weekly vlog. “Chris Harris and his week in cars”. 8pm on a Thursday. We would all watch it, I’m sure. Doesn’t have to be polished, just iPhone videos strung together.

    Catholic father of 4 kids and I bought a Peugeot 505 GTI estate with seatbelts for 8 . It was the most expensive car they built at the time , velour seats , aircon, power steering , Ali wheels that where just gorgeous , electric wing mirrors, roof rails fitted sunroof, the list goes on
    It was 3 yrs old when I bought it , the kids christened it the Ghost buster car , we traveled all over the UK towing a caravan when on holiday , one of the best cars iv owned

    I know you guys enjoy the Isle of Man TT, but I appreciate the love shown towards motorcycle racing - MotoGP, Moto2, Moto3, WSBK, BSB
    I'm aware not all love of four wheels translates to two (and vice versa), but it is fantastic stuff and engaging entertainment.
    These guys really do put their bodies on the line every time they go out on track, and usually with exciting results!
    Have yourselves a Merry Christmas, and thanks for providing great motoring chatter on a continual weekly basis.

    Message to Neil… the p400e Defender DOES re-charge itself when in ‘SAVE’ mode … and would have to agree it’s one of the best modern cars out there. I’ve had to go through a lot of crap modern cars to find this one, and it’s just brilliantly designed throughout (ignoring the slightly restricted boot space)😂 if you want to get lost in a world of great after market parts check out New Defender Mods … epically the Rhino front bumper/bullbar ❤

    I miss the 500cc bikes, some of the stuff about them is just wild. They had to "clutch" them and use the rear brake to soften the delivery of the things. They would slip the clutch and use the rear brake as another means to make them rideable. Doohan would often have more ware on his rear brake than on the front. This is how much of a mind fark he had over everyone else after his accident where he was effectively kidnapped by Dr Costa as they wanted to cut his leg off and he ended up with a ancle that was fused, Honda came up with a thumb rear brake for him to use, but since he was winning others thought it was an advantage and had the thumb brake fitted to their bikes. There was times he was literally lifted on to the bike to race.

    Another great episode; I love listening to this in detail, there are so many small things said that I can relate to……Chris C…..”on time is late….”, love this, during my working career I adopted this, to be early is to be on time, to be on time is to be late and to be late….don’t bother. Keep up the great podcasts guys and a very merry Christmas to you all, from….. 365 curmudgeon (another great quip) 😂
