Just love this 1954 Alfa Romeo AR51 being auctioned by @Historics next weekend. Much cooler than a Series I Landie, and one of only three believed to be in the UK... #alfaromeo #4x4

Over the moon to win the Motoring Editor of the Year award in tonight's @bsmeinfo awards. My wonderful wife @NatSimister is currently in hospital so I've not been able to head down to London for the ceremony, but this definitely cheered both of us up!

All of us at CCW were shocked and appalled by the terrible events in #Southport earlier this week. That's why we've decided to team up with Aintree Circuit Club to raise funds at the Southport Classic & Speed show for the families and affected... classiccarweekly.co.uk/news/scene/sho…

Heartbroken and horrified by what happened in Southport earlier today. As a parent and a Sandgrounder my thoughts are with all those affected by this tragic event ☹️ #southport


We've got a great selection starting to rock up for the first Coffee & Cars Wythall event. Keep an eye out for a full report in CCW...

We’re over the moon with the latest news! Automotive Consumer Publication in the #NewspressAwards2024 A glowing report on the title and the excellent work of our team putting it together week in week out!


Hey @AvantiWestCoast, any chance you can make your on-board WiFi as fast as your trains? It's pretty much unusable on the 09:30 out of Euston, sadly...

My whip last weekend. Very much enjoyed the Jeep Compass 4xe's looks, comfort, and bags of character, but rather less enamoured by the fidgety ride, dim-witted auto, lack of boot space and £43k price tag...

STOLEN - PLEASE SHARE ⚠️ This Sierra Sapphire Cosworth was stolen, along with van & trailer from the Hilton in Doncaster yesterday at 2am. Most worryingly, the rig was in a ‘secure’ car park with a security barrier & CCTV. If you see or hear anything, please call the police!

In this week's issue: @tiff_tv on why his Morris Minor was such an important car in the early stages of his motorsport career - and why he got pulled by the police in it!
