#B4B14 Day Two: The best tweets from the teams

Another day, many tanks of fuel later and we’ve reached our overnight stop in Italy, heading down (and then back up…) the witheringly beautiful Stelvio Pass on the way.

Tyres have been ruined, brake discs set on fire, and one or two header tanks have met their makers too. Here are our teams’ best tweets of the day.

1. Andy and PJ woke up to find a beautifully preserved Z3…

Wonder how @CarDealerAndy is getting on. Terrible thing to have happened. Terrible. We know nothing. #B4B14 pic.twitter.com/x1a7q6X59a

2. …while News UK started the day with an impromptu drag race…

Nice post drag open door shot (actually to allow smell of burnt clutches to clear) #b4b14 #tricolor #vivalafrance pic.twitter.com/uTHtV5nSKQ

3. …before presenting Blackshaws’ Ignis with a Doggy Bag of treats.

4. HPI finally gets to the bottom of its fishy Saab mystery…

5. …though the Ignis Mutt was having new odour issues of its own.

Was a woof journey for Gareth this morning. Poor car got the outcome and needed a wash and blow dry. #b4b14 pic.twitter.com/c4erpwuDcP

6. Sun Motors hit a spot of bad luck…

I brought a #haynes #manual with me but looks like the wrong one #b4b14 @SunmotorsUK @The_Marques_Man @JimChaudry pic.twitter.com/hOwofixzji

7. …and then a pothole full of it too.

Flat tyre going up stelvios pass. If it weren't raining it would be kinda funny. Almost. #b4b14 pic.twitter.com/nh72LXK7BK

8. Carfinance247’s tank of a Merc starts to feel out of its depth…

The Stelvio Pass nearly broke the Merc! It was only cooked brakes and overheating @carfinance247 @Bangers4BEN #b4b14 pic.twitter.com/hPfk36ULe2

— James Weir (@jamesweir87) October 12, 2014

 

9. …while CD Team 1 and Dane Autos end up on the Northern Line.

So. We're on a car train, then. #B4B14 pic.twitter.com/tlO6JyrWCw

— Jon Reay (@JonReay) October 12, 2014

 

10. But in the end, it was all worth it.

#b4b14 Como just before 9pm… Amazing amazing day of twisty drives, hit brakes, squealing tyres and wonderful views pic.twitter.com/nNxWfr04gc
