I've watched it now; imo it won't make any difference, if anything it'll entrench peoples' previously held views and opinions and do nothing to prevent problems prevalent in practice.

* I've now decided what the Q is for, and it's not quite quaint.

Best comment I saw was “he drives like there are angry wasps in the car” :lol:

Agree it won’t make any difference in isolation - it needs some national socialisation. No idea how you do that now when sensible people don’t buy hard copy papers, and many people don’t watch TV.

Edit - I was surprised to hear that the Mercuns had stolen the ‘zip merge” phrase before I even thought of it. (I referred to “zip up”). Also he should have mentioned that many European countries do this superbly - not Italy where they drive more like Russians.

That's bloody impressive, and similar to a ding I got when someone used my car as a parking bollard.

Fucking christ I miss that car.

I had the pleasure of watching the PDR guy for about half the time he took to remove the fist-size dent on the VXR8 rear flank (caused by impact from airport luggage trolley :?: )

It was pure voodoo. 8-)

Fair play to that Range Rover Sport, the engine was completely submerged for a bit.

I'm still a little disappointed that we couldn't find anyone willing to have a go at PDR-ing the Superb. I reckon the worst of it could be sorted to the extent it would be barely noticable, but none of the guys local to us seemed interested at all. :(

But then, whilst it annoys the shit out of me every time I see it, the wife (her car) doesn't seem to give a toss about it at all.

I've had that with the A2, assumed "because alu" (though they never got back to me :roll:), pish poor no one'll do the Superb :x
At least your Mrs doesn't mind.

Those Rufford Ford videos. It's shocking just how many people seem to think that the way to ford a Ford is to go in at full speed, ripping off the front number plate and engine undertray whilst throwing a huge wave right over the bottom of the windscreen and forcing water through the grill into the sensitive electronics lurking in the engine bay. Very few people were correctly tip-toeing through and keeping the wash below their lower door shutline.
