OV9

I’ve enjoyed a couple of Matt’s videos but I wouldn’t buy a lawnmower off him let alone a Bugatti.

I used to enjoy those, I had no idea he was also a moron.

Its a shame when stuff you like turns out to have been created by idiots, like when the chap from binky turned out to be a mad vaccine denier.

lets not get ahead of ourselves, I might put a stripe down the side of it this year.

I probably won't be relaunching it to the world after spending a couple of hundred grand on it again this year though so that's unlikely to happen.

Anyway, I accept this fictional and evidently controversial award and would like to thank the committee and all that voted in her.

My plan for the previous 10 years was get the car finished. Just about everything else was on hold until then.

This year I plan to use it as much as possible, get as much exposure as possible and see what happens.

Hmmm

Dan's car?
It seems a no brainer, but does it qualify a 2025 purchase?


Wasn't it a 2013 purchase? :lol:

And IIRC it has to be a purchased car, not a built one. I didn't make the rules.


2012 actually….but it was mot’d for the first time in 10 years this year so I think it counts 😃

That looks lovely

911!

Merry Christmas everyone, I hope you all have a splendid time.

That was a test, you passed.

The red thing is just the elastic cover to keep the wheel clean in the workshop.

Nice to see a proper considered review of it, it sounds like he got on with it well :lol:

Without wishing to pry, is the press coverage converting to interest in your services?


Haven't sold any cars yet, but the interest its generating is huge. I've got enough work to last 12 months as it is ...

Brilliant 8-) Some great shots on the move too.

And you used to be a prison architect?!?


I used to design prisons, amongst other things, yes :lol:

Cheltenham physiotherapy ward was me.....erm, Leeds divisional police headquarters opposite the football ground, the largest indoor police firing ...

That's fantastic 8-)

I appreciate that's not the point of the car but are you going get some proper timing gear on it?

Some people love that shit down the pub :lol:


No need, it has onboard GPS and a database of thousands of circuits worldwide, so as soon as you pull out of a pitlane it ...

Great write up! Is this a picture of Nelson Mandela with the caption "When in doubt flat out"?

Yes, it tickled me and I was going to put it on the dash but then had second thoughts as not everyone has a sense of humour

I mean if we’re ignoring the rules I’ll obviously pick my car, it’s faster than a bac in a straight line and you can take your pals with you as it’s got two seats. Perfect.

Yep he looked terrified but fuck me he's got some balls getting into the ring with AJ.

AJ rightly gave him some respect early on and that, coupled with the fact Paul wouldn't stop running meant it took a little longer than people hoped. He was an awkward fighter for AJ but when he finished it it ...

A hundred quid I bet they're made in china for £2.50.

Good idea though.

What a hero that guy was, unlike all the retarded americans who are convinced they'd go running in to the nearest school all guns blazing in the event of an emergency, he actually did, armed with nothing more than a massive pair of balls.
