Cars: typically hate them. But because I like mechanical things I’m going to rank the three cars I’ve owned in my life. Starting with the best: 1. Audi A1 Sport TFSI 1.4 manual 3-door hatchback. 4-cylinder (turbo). Very nippy (similar to driving the Renault 5 GT Turbo I used to borrow on occasion), reliable, started every time, economical (Cylinder on Demand (CoD) engine tech where the 4 cylinders dropped to two on low demand), AC never failed, easy to maintain, cheaper tyres, handled well. A bit small but with seats folded down it was like a mini-van. Nothing failed. Even has space for a spare tyre. ABS and anti-slip (ESC) alway worked reliably. Less keen on front wheel drive. Battery in boot. Only issue was a failed fan blower resistor that I replaced. Easy to park. Alloy wheels. Cupholders. 🙂 2. BMW E34 520i manual saloon. 6 cylinder - very smooth. Reliable. A bit thirsty. Totally rust-free. Handled amazingly for a large car. Loved the rear wheel drive. Very few issues. Started every time (even after weeks of non-use). Battery in boot. Rear bushes wore out leading to a rear wobble sensation around corners (replaced them and felt like new). Spacious. Electrics always worked. ABS was solid, especially in icy conditions. No AC. Alloy wheels. No cup holders. Fixed rear seats. 3. Mercedes 230e W124 auto saloon. Solid. 4-cylinder. But old-school distributor cap meant variable reliable morning starts and was prone to ware. Very smooth ride although a little wallowy around corners. Loved the rear wheel drive. Very spacious. Fuel economy better than the BMW. Alternator brushes failed leading to electrical issues (wipers and indicators) - easy fix though. Radiator leak and a sticky thermostat. ABS very reliable. Probably the most accessible car to work on (easy access to everything). No AC. Steel rims. Fixed rear seats. No cup holders. I guess I like German cars 🤷🏻‍♂️ Biased? 😂

Why are the basic needs (shelter, food, water, clothing) for basic living often so difficult to achieve for so many? It should be the base default for everyone around the world from which they can then grow from.

I’m going for a second ciabatta sandwich loaded with pastrami/gherkins/mustard/rocket/truffle cheese because… 1. The walk gave me an appetite. 2. The first sarnie was not enough. 3. I still have some wine remaining. 4. Unresolved relationship issues. 5. Fuck it.

Screw everything, I am going for a walk! Then I am going to drink some wine accompanied with a ciabatta, loaded with pastrami, pickled gherkins, truffle cheese and some wild rocket.

Big IPOs/Listings about to happen. Probably why stuff is shifting.
