crap route though... the A303 is like a bombsite, so where they found some nice smooooth tarmac is beyond me :lol:
M5/M4/M25/A12 at night would have seen him there before the sun by atleast an hour. Ahh well thats not good TV is it lol.


I've never said this before, but rock on the next series. Huayra, McL , Aston One-77, Virage to name but a few shiney new toys that have come out while this dire series has been on
