Chertsey is in surrey i think, junction 10 or 11 on the M25 - what date is that, and what happens?

The one at Chertsey will be at the test track owned by the company I work for. It's not actually Chertsey, but Longcross, just up from jct 3 of the M3. Is anyone going to this one, as I'll probably be able to go over and watch.

Hi Guys, just got back from a day out at MIRA, Excellent day out, got to test drive the V70R on the skid track trying the abs and tracs out,
Then taken around the track with a pro racing driver in the s60R to test the FOUR C system out, blooody hell is all i can say soaking wet road on a roundabout at 60 with the tyres squealing great great fun

then we went off to test the XC70 D5 on the off road course, now that was fun, balancing the cars on a ramp, then driving it through the mud at 30 deg angles, flooring it iin the mud was brill,
we then went off to try the XC90 D5 on the slalom course to test the dtsc out,
at the end we had a chance to take any car we wanted unacompanied but we had to get back home so we declined, the car we went up in was mine and we did 221 miles on £34 of fuel equates to 28.9 mpg,
You boys are going to love it tomorrow,

Gary.

PS Big thumbs up to Engineer for making this happen, my next car will probably be a V70R with 7 seat conversion

The pleasure was all mine mate, cheers. A great day out and we didn't even have to buy a new car!
