That to me is utterly irresponsible. I know the roads are unrestricted, but even so, when they're going past other vehicles with a speed differential of several hundred kph they stand no chance of avoiding an accident if someone gets in their way.

Read about the German Police investigating it. If they go ahead and prosecute then that’s pretty much unrestricted autobahn done for.
How about not having a sig at all?

I don't mind that. Driving at such speed should be for tracks only.

When we drove through Germany in October it was mostly on an unrestricted autobahn, I kept it at about 90-95mph and we overtook most cars, traffic was fairly consistent at 80mph, so I doubt it will be greatly missed by the majority of drivers.

I can't remember if their channel has been posted on here before but Rob from salvage rebuilds has bought the car he'd always promised himself.

Don’t have time to watch it all just now, and not aware of the channel, but he certainly seems a happy boy and that history check thing looks pretty comprehensive.

Not just you :D

Their channel is worth a watch if you like watching two blokes repair damaged run of the mill cars without the drama a lot of other channels produce. The Lamborghini is a far as you can get from their normal content.

Interesting video from JayEmm on a particular Ferrari FF which was destined for a BCA auction until the video was published and its now been pulled. Its a long video but I found it pretty interesting. Even after reading the Pistonheads thread, I'm not entirely sure how a car can be correctly serviced and have that many serious issues on it which owners aren't aware-of.

TLDR - don't trust car dealers, especially those who love to take pictures of their stock in a pond.

Cheers,

Mike.

It’s even reinforced via signage, yet the brainless still try to take him out. :roll: I do think he should kill all of the other vehicle occupants though. :?

I swear It's always VW buses who do that whole "blocking both lanes" thing. Half the time when you get one double long queue next to an empty lane, the traffic ends up blocking turnings and roundabouts way back that would have been left clear if people just read the signs and did as they were told.

It's one of the few things I watch regularly as I find it quite relaxing. The quieter guy Chris has an amazingly broad skillset 😎

Nothing winds me up more than when my wife takes the side of the bellend that's just tried to cut me up. Obviously they want you to avoid conflict at all times and fall in behind, but I counter argue with 'if you were walking down the street and someone overtook you and then tried shoving you into a hedge or stop you getting past the aggressively, you'd say what the fuck are you doing?' It's no different just because they have a car wrapped around them.
To be fair, it's the only thing we ever argue about.

Driving standards are so poor now, I long for the day I can drive around in an old crown vic with bullbars and pit every dozy cunt like that out of the way.
Cheers.

I look forward to the day when 90% of traffic is autonomous driving so I can merrily dive in and out of gaps knowing the other cars are automatically going to avoid me 8-)

Shit, was going to say his accent isn’t that bad :lol:
I’d say it’s a mix of Kent and Essex.
