If he's gonna become a car journo then he can't pick and choose.
I did think when I posted that, how do I write it? I chose that way! I did think, do I put, r type of the f type, but then I felt like eminem.

I had my firesand awd r remapped and pulley changed and it made over 630bhp

I loved mr rs6 but the noise from this thing is epic and the awd system is great but jlr have left enough for the rear to come out when you want it to

If typing F-Type R is too much of a bother. How about SlippeR or even FlippeR?

Nice videos for comparing the performance of the rs6 to a car average joe can relate to as "sporty", but on the whole comparing a 2 seater sports coupe to a 5 seat family estate car is a bit pointless.
