    I think he was a little impressed, mainly because it started everytime for him. His first words were, "well that goes well" that's good enough for me.

    Looks like an Excellent day out despite the hi-cups and set backs. I dare say there are a few who are Jealous of the event. Getting your car on Fifth Gear is an achievement of its own let alone spending a day with a touring car legend!

    Definitely the most immaculate estate for the job though, nice one Neal

    What a quality sounding way to spend the day, troubles aside I'm sure the positives far outweighed the little running hiccups!
