    having read his book and watched all his podcasts i understand why chris doesnt talk about his heritage much and respect his privacy. but i do love that the face of british car journalism at the moment is a brown man in a segment where we're few and far between. legend and an inspiration

      Right?! I feel like Chris and Ed were a bit dumbfounded by that and rightly so, frankly. Don't think I've ever heard an interview start with talking about failure and moving on...

      I thought it was odd and not a little disrespectful. And you can tell that they were pretty non-plussee. Chris has been very open about his various ventures that have come and gone, but this platform is very well thought-through.

      Nope it's Mark Mccann. He has a series in which he exposes super car dealership practice where you have to buy a number of cars to be invited to buy an exclusive car like a Porsche 911 GT3 RS .He gets the car at the end of the 3 part series.

    BMW i3 120ah owner here. You are spot on, this car is perfectly reliable, roomy enough for myself, wife, 2 kids and a small dog. We often do 250 km drives with it on a single charge. Unfortunately the new EV’s are going further and further away from that philosophy.
