Was round my friends this afternoon. He'd just changed the antifreeze on his Morgan and wanted to warm it up to get the air out of the system. Best way to do that was to take it for a blast. 

 

It is very fast because... 

Interestingly it uses the standard Rover air filter box but it doesn't quite fit so they beat a dent in the top. Sounds like the sort of bodge I'd do but this is how it comes from Morgan themselves. 

A Morgan with heated seats? 

Well it hasn't yet but its on the to do list so he's put the switch in ready. My friend has had it a few years now and is constantly upgrading it. All the leatherwork you can see here was done by him. He's one of those annoying but useful people to know who can turn his hand to anything and do it well. This car has many mechanical upgrades, steering swapped from box to rack and pinion, uprated suspension, lsd. It goes very well, handles very well and the ride is surprisingly good. I was expecting it to be a lot harsher but it isn't. 

 

Contrast.

Do people really have to be told to cook frozen peas before eating them?

 

Decent quality frozen peas are suitable for eating raw.  Great summer snacks.

 

Wouldn't feed Morrisons peas to anyone even cooked.

That’s an AI picture, I doubt that actually happened.

What makes you say that? It has absolutely none of the hallmarks of AI generated images.

E36 front end on an e39 shell with incorrect door handles and different wheels front to back.

Look up above the chap in the water at the bystanders, look at the fingers on the chap in the tan shorts and black shirt. There’s a few more odd hands, arms and faces as you go to the right.

Hadn't used this bugger for about 6 months or more! It got boxed in at work with the camper pod thing I'm building for it and I'd lost track of time. Finally had a spare minute this weekend to tidy the place up and have a shuffle round.. Started first turn of the key and immediately took got pushed into service carrying a shit tonne of wood on the back, then winching a load of trees and bushes and a 3 foot square boulder across the garden.

it's a bloody weird looking thing without the dropsides on isn't it!

^  Doesn't look like Linguoer, who always looks more capable.  She seemed to be digging around for appearances.

Who keeps a spare tyre (apart from Americans) rather than a spare wheel.

'Police Car'?  Hardly.

No doubt. That doesn't make it AI though.

It appears that Barry the bugler can walk on water too. His feet are clearly visible whilst the chap in front of the BMW is up to his knees. It's either AI or Barry is the new messiah.

He’s not the new messiah, he’s a very naughty boy!

I forgot that the only way to fake photos was with AI. How silly of me.

To be fair I was too focused on the fact the car is car shaped, it used to be really bad at doing realistic cars.

I think that just proves it wasn't taken in Cornwall, but actually in Great Yarmouth.

There's a simple answer here. They've all just left the festival and are still gurning their chops off.

Weird people with mutations? It’s Cornwall, nothing to do with AI!
