Aren't they the same guys that did Dans bodywork? Edit, yes, I probably should have just clicked on the link

Yes, and that metro has an opel dtm 2.5 in the back, it’s awesume.

As in one of these?

Thats the one, a KF.

It had me wondering what the collective term for that many fur coats was.

Enjoyed the car bits though.

Are GP2 cars doing the whole hybrid thing or are we going to end up with GP2 cars being faster than F1?

Having to coast at the end of the straights because the power is dropping off seems a pretty shitty form of motorsport however you dress it up.


F2 were 15 seconds a lap slower around bahrain ...

Based on my very small sample of one.

On monday morning I went in to Kidderminster hospital to have a small operation on my throat as i've been sounding like i've got a sore throat for several months. I had a camera up my nose a few weeks ago that determined I had something on my vocal chords, not ...

That’s a v6 exige with a body swap, probably the left over radfords after theirs didn’t work

Born March 1974 according to Companies House, so there are some very variable ages around if he could be 7 years younger than Dan or 61/62 :lol:

That makes more sense, the story I read said he was born ...

Jesus i've just looked him up, I genuinely thought he was a decade older than me, not 7 years younger. Thats some paper round he must have had :lol:


He’s 61/62 non? :?

Dan is 69 AICMFP.

Never bothered and never felt vulnerable as a result.

Now I have all singing and dancing motorsport insurance its included but it doesn't make me feel any different on track.

Yes most basic principle going, taken to the absolute extreme other end of the scale by the numpties that insist on paint marking every single nut and bolt they ever go near, i'm sure most of them saw it on facebook and think they're professionals now. I've undone some shockingly bad work but it was ...

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.
