Just watching it now, nice cossie, I was laughing more about Tif's track day advice !! ...I used to have respect for the man!.

His advice was a bit reckless towards the end.

Sierra rs500 cosworth with a granada scorpio 24v cosworth twin turbo engine convertion. He's running about 550bhp.

mighty impressive 0-60 times, for all the wrong reasons!
i presume it was rear wheel drive and spinning up far too much?
tiff's advise about "not bothering with a helmet" and the tailsliding antics towards the end were blatant fiction. no way are you allowed to do either on track or airfield days.
was quite entertaining tho, VBH got quite excited at the diahatsu rally pwnage

I wonder what the Auto Trader advert for that car will read like? :?

I think it is absolutely sh*t now, what is it with that clarkson wannabe - "You dirty little matiz, dirty little car" .. hello - have you heard yourself mate, and the fella from the football program, what does he know about cars, absolutely nothing!! ... and what was the testing a charade to destruction about - useless!! ... and to top it off Tiff and that Audi - no thank you, you kn*b. If I came across someone driving like that on a track day I'd be the first to complain to the organisers, oh but silly me, tiff thinks you can get a whole race track to yourselves ....
