https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xkAT82-R0S8

quite simply one of my favourite vids ever (along with their ECOTY15 and the Chris Harris on Cars Hyper Car trio vid)

Its inspirational for anyone who truly loves driving

Its just a shame Scotland is so bl00dy far away !!!

Good job Tesco 99 is now cheaper than Diesel !! If there is ever a time to run a 5.0V8 1,200 miles to John O'Groats and back, it is now - petrol will never be cheaper
Yeah that Aston vid is one of my favourites too. TBH personally, I'm enjoying your vids on YouTube mate. F00k the haters, hey! :beerchug:
