I did have the pleasure of tasting this excellent (hard to get) beer on a visit to a friend in California. Pliny the Elder is probably as good as any beer gets, and Pliny the Younger is a beer of true excellence as well. But there is always a reason why a brewery would pick such names for their...

Thank you Nick. It was a lot easier to find good information about Scott Walker, his distinguished career and his important role at “Hethel Retail Operations”. It was a lot more difficult to find good information on Scott Delamere, so your excellent explanation was really helpful. (I haven’t yet...

I dropped by the MOBILITY SHOW in Tokyo’s ‘Big Sight’ today Sunday Oct 29, 2023 and walked straight to the MAZDA ICONIC SP display. This new Mazda concept model is absolutely stunning, and in my opinion there is no other car at the current show that comes close. It beautifully creates a new...

It has come to my attention that there are two persons working at the reception area at Lotus Cars @ Hethel, Norfolk. Scott the younger takes guests on tours through manufacturing and assists in delivering Lotus vehicles in the case of factory delivery. But there also seems to be a Scott the...

So far I have seen only one single BYD on the street. I have also noticed that it is on sale. One thing to know is that Japan has a considerable Chinese and also Korean population. First of all, this population are likely to invest in some of these cars. Attitudes may (very) slowly change in the...

I would expect that even though some contracts probably are signed, I doubt that the homologation process is over yet, so I doubt this model can yet drive on Japanese streets. The only Eletre I have seen so far is sitting in the LCI Harajuku showroom (they had to widen the doors of the showroom...

khiro said (via Google Translate): <I'm waiting for an i4 ordered in April 2022. In August, I test drove a V6 Seneca Blue MT at Giron Motors in Osaka. It's been a while since I've driven a manual transmission car, so it took me a while to get used to it. As for the brakes, I got used to them...

Hi Nick219 Welcome to the forum. It looks like you are with the LCI Harajuku store, just like myself (I am kept waiting for an I4). Recently I was explicitly told that the demonstrator car is exclusively for lending to the press; and it is not for test drives by customers. Have you already...

Scratched my head regarding ‘RoW’, but found that it is “Car Rental Terminology” that stands for “Rest of the World”. So I guess that makes sense❣️ Thanks for all the good information JClem. I agree with everything you said, and I also hope you see my own points. Lucky for you that you were...

Hi Stuart/Baldyash Appreciate that you are passing on your information from Lotus CS, however unfortunate it is. It is certainly not unexpected. I have already expressed that I think now this is the time when MD/CEO Matt Windle should make one of his memorable appearances via video and...

And the sound….
