Guess where. (Its quite easy)

Went to Blackbushe Airport for lunch and a look at the planes. Nice bangers and mash in a big yorkie for £9.95 so can’t be bad, large white coffee for 2 quid too.

An extraordinary moment for me and Auntie and for everyone who’s been following our journey!
Did it take longer than expected? Oh yes.
Was it worse than expected? Absolutely.
Did I learn from the experience? More than I could ever have imagined!
Perhaps that’s why this moment felt so special: we’d earned it. All of us. Auntie included, for p…Read More

More Memories from the International Bugatti Meeting in Denmark

A few memories from Denmark

I’ve finally been going through some of the photos from our five days in Denmark with Gromit.

97 years old, temperatures well over 30°C, five days of driving… and somehow he kept going. 😅

There were definitely a few moments when I was watching that temperature gauge more than the road ahead, but looking…Read More

I was told about this event a few days ago: https://www.roverp4dg.org.uk/index.php/events

I think it would be a fantastic opportunity to meet some fellow Rover P4 enthusiasts and take Auntie to see her brothers and sisters…I bet she hasn’t done that in a while!

Of course, there’s still a lot to do before she’s ready, but I’m going to try.…Read More

A new Auntie video is live! 🎉

I just wanted to say a huge thank you for all the support you’ve been giving this project. Every comment, suggestion, and word of encouragement really does mean a lot. ❤️

Quite a few of you noticed that the brake bleed nipples don’t seem to be at the highest point. Great spot! 👀 I’m already looking into it, and…Read More

Yesterday was practice at Prescott, and I managed to beat my handicap.
Most people would probably say that’s bad strategy… because now they might lower my handicap for today’s event. 😅
The truth is, I don’t really think about strategy.
For me, Prescott is one of the few places where I can safely explore what both the car and I are capable of.…Read More

Hi everyone! I hope you’re having a fantastic day. 😊

I thought I’d share a few photos from the Prescott hill climb and some behind-the-scenes shots of the Joker repair. I’m currently working on the next chapter of the adventure, but in the meantime, I hope you enjoy these moments from the workshop and the track! 🏁❤️

Found a new purpose for these steps. 😅😅 Anyone interested in steam engines?

As promised, here are a few more photos of the Joker from Sicily.
As for the Bugatti’s racing history, I’ll need to check the details with Colin. Since he’s owned the car, it’s been used mainly for hill climbs, where it has won the Prescott Championship four times. It has also competed in a few circuit races, including Donington. In fact, there’s…Read More

Just wanted to share a few photos from the Sicily Bugatti Meeting with the Bugatti Type 51, the Joker.

Looking back, I guess it always happens, I wish I had recorded more. But it was my very first time driving the Type 51, and to be honest, I was quite nervous. It’s such a light and agile car, and the feedback it gives you is incredibly direct.…Read More

Did a prom for a nice young gentleman. Was very hot and the car suffered with vapour lock and would not idle in the q so had to let it cool down then drive him in. But he was very happy as it was a total surprise to him. I pulled over to tie the ribbons more taught after a mile as they were flapping all over the place. Lesson learnt there.

A photo I found on my PC. Taxi rank in Stockholm. Mid to late 60s.

Good evening everyone 😊

I just wanted to share a few more photos of Auntie No!!! and some thoughts that have been on my mind lately.

When I bought this car, I genuinely thought it would be a fairly straightforward project. A bit of tinkering, a few repairs, and back on the road. How wrong I was!

It’s incredible how many stories,…Read More

Had a marvellous day down at Hart Classics. Even helped my neighbour at the show jump his 53 Chevy Belair after he left his fan on. Good deed done as us petrolheads help each other out.

Black Betty in Bugantics

I was delighted to see that Black Betty (GGT 925) has been featured in the latest edition of Bugantics, the long-running magazine of the Bugatti Owners’ Club. Bugantics has been the club’s magazine for decades and remains one of the most respected publications in the historic motoring world.

Even better, the article…Read More

A little update from behind the scenes of Blacktag Octane…

For quite a while, I tried to keep YouTube organised into active “series” from start to finish. The problem is… real workshop life doesn’t really work like that 😅

While I’m focused on finishing one storyline, work on other cars keeps happening in the background… rallies, re…Read More

When I first met Corto, he was already causing a little bit of trouble with a locked boot… but we did manage to sort that out… in our own way! 😅
I was actually amazed by how much space there is in the boot when I decided to do a little experiment and locked myself inside it, just to make sure I’d still be able to escape if it ever got stuck again…Read More
