It's easy to forget how remarkable the Jensen FF was when it came out in 1966 with 4 wheel drive & Maxaret anti lock braking especially its performance in snow. This was years before the equally remarkable Audi Quattro showed the world what 4 wheel drive could do for a rally car

Fiat’s take on the retro-modern small car has substance and talent to match its style. We drive the Grande Panda.

Its time to sell my 2007 Corvette C6. Its a very rare 6 Speed manual and has the Z06 wide body, wheels and brakes fitted. Its also one of the best sounding cars I've ever owned. I've been all over France in it and did the NC500 in it in April. Its a proper old school Vette. It was serviced and MOT'd with no advisories in March. Ready to enjoy this summer. 81k miles, £26,950 Full details in the ad here:- carandclassic.com/l/C2084677

most GenZ thing a CEO has ever said: ā€œWe had an HR team, and that HR team was creating problems that didn’t exist. Those problems disappeared when I let them go.ā€
JUST IN: Bolt CEO Ryan Breslow fired the company’s entire HR team because they were ā€œcreating problems that didn’t exist.ā€

I recently talked to a wise friend of mine, who is annoyingly insightful on a number of topics, including struggling European sports and luxury manufactures. The topic was - who will make it and who will die. Read more here: ssoreport.com/who-lives-who-… #ssoreport

"Capitalism created the possibility of the win win win. It used to be a zero sum game where somebody won, somebody else lost. The biggest mistake people make, intellectuals in particular, they still think we're in a zero sum world. They're obsessed with some billionaires because Bernie Sanders thinks that Jeff Bezos and Elon Musk somehow stole the money from the people. They don't understand that it's this prosperity machine that's creating more, not just for those billionaires, but for everything that they're touching. They're creating value for their customers, they're creating value for their employees. Their suppliers are flourishing, their investors are seeing their capital go up. It can be reinvested and compound. All philanthropy ultimately comes from business. That's where the profits are. Where does all the taxes come from? It ultimately comes from business as well. This is the engine that's lifting humanity out. The entrepreneurs are the drivers of that engine. Somebody like Elon Musk, he gets a very, very, very tiny sliver of the value that he creates for the whole world." — @iamjohnmackey

Lamborghini's first all-electric model is dead before it could arrive. CEO Stephan Winkelmann admitted that interest in an electric model is "close to zero," and that "investing heavily in full-EV development ... would be an expensive hobby." motor1.com/news/787979/lambo…

Assume the best. Assume people will fulfill their promises. That they will hold up their side of the bargain. That they will also want a win/win outcome. Don’t hedge your bets. Don’t cover your ass. Don’t use a lawyer. Leave yourself open to being taken advantage of. 99% of the time you will be amazed at what trust and vulnerability unlocks. 1% of the time you’ll be taken advantage of. So worth it.

Tea will be spilled. Crumpets will be crumpeted. If Downton Abbey and Airplane! had a love child born with a silver spoon up its arse, it’d be #FackhamHall - the raucous whodunit comedy starring Damian Lewis, Thomasin McKenzie, Tom Felton, & Katherine Waterston. In theaters 12/5!
