Boeing whistleblower says plane parts had serious defects
would be reluctant to fly on a 737 Max, in case it still carried flaws that originated in the Wichita factory.
"I'd never met a lot of people who were scared of flying until I worked at Spirit," he said.
And then, being at Spirit, I met a lot of people who were afraid of flying - because they saw how they were building the fuselages."

And you can accidentally get the cap in the way when pouring into a glass - for those who don't drink out of the bottle.
Also find they are a bit more difficult to get back on - seem to want to get cross threaded a bit.

Had a quick reply....
Hi Keith our club is more about the enthusiast than the car so we welcome all wheels and ages and we also recognise the younger members coming on board with the Ford Focus and the likes.
Our Trago meets are set to get bigger especially as the weather warms up and they have given us the extra space to grow so please enjoy the day.
Regards Allan.-

Cars have to be over a certain age?
Their web site says......
To define a 'classic car' is extremely hard and right from the start we have always stated that this club is for the car enthusiast and all wheels are welcome. You will find a wide variety of vehicles on display at our monthly meets; from American mustangs, Aston Martin DB5 to the younger Ford Focus ST.
The car in front of me was a Tesla, but he did not go in.......but have sent them a message.

So happy for Mclaren.
Agree, even the other drivers were happy. Toto went over to congratulate the McLaren pit wall crew.
If they can get the upgrades to both cars done for the next race, could make the races more interesting.

Only one I know of for sale at the moment is at Lotus Silverstone it may have been on sale in the past.

South West Lotus have their own GT430 - which is not road legal and a left hand drive auto. Club Lotus SW have a monthly (ish) meet usually somewhere in Devon or Cornwall. https://www.facebook.com/groups/clublotussouthwest/events
SW England can be very busy in August, just needs a little accident on one of the 2 main roads SW of Exeter and can be delays.
(One thing is sure though you would not be able to visit the Lotus dealer in Exeter.)

External radio interference can upset the transmission from the TPMS sensor to the car, have had this in our old Jeep. After a while it sorts itself out. When this happened all 4 disappeared but just 2 at a time about 30 seconds apart.

I know these days Covid seems a thing of the (near) past, but some have on going issues.
In the press today...
The US shared “gobsmacking” evidence with Britain at the height of the Covid pandemic suggesting a “high likelihood” that the virus had leaked from a Chinese lab, The Telegraph can reveal.
In January 2021, Five Eyes intelligence-sharing nations were convened to discuss the possibility of a lab leak as the US warned that China had covered up research on coronaviruses and military activity at a laboratory in Wuhan

The TV show pays for all the repairs on The Repair Shop! Restorations can cost hundreds to thousands of pounds so everyone who gets on the show is very lucky.
If people wish to make a donation to charity we're very happy with that, but it's by no means necessary

Bought a spare standard steering wheel and then had it re-trimmed by a company near me in Newton Abbot, certainly feels better. (wheel is on straight but just parked at an angle in garage..)

Future of Lotus
in Lotus / Motoring / Cars Chat
Posted
On the Eletre FB group someone posted that Hethel was closing in 2 weeks - I assume he means the mini dealership there as it has gone off the dealership list on the Lotus website. If true then it would no longer be possible to pick your new car up from Scott at the factory?
