Amazon Echo Show 8 Review
The Amazon Echo Show 8 is a smart speaker with an 8" HD screen. The device is 200 × 136 × 99mm and weighs about 1kg. I purchased mine in the Prime Day sales in October 2020 and paid £70 for it.

Progress has been slow in the later part of this month because Rob is spending a lot of time with his Dad, who had a heart attack and stroke. Ethan is currently completing the online parts of his EV conversion training course. We will be purchasing a number of parts to start the EV conversion in July, including the iBooster, Telsa SDU and Tyre Pressure Monitoring System (TPMS) to go on the new wheels.
With my daughter, Emma away in Poland, we get to look after her ND MX-5 🙂 Having these two cars and the MX-5e in the family allows us to benchmark it against a modern ND MX-5 and a fully restored Eunos Roadster. The MX-5e is currently the runt of the pack. It's the slowest and hardest car to drive fast but, dynamically it is gaining ground quickly. The ND is the 1.5 variant but is the quickest by some margin and has one of the best small engines ever produced. Mated with a great 6-speed gearbox it is a joy to drive. Our goal is for the MX-5e to be the best of this bunch though.
