Or maybe I'm just too cynical.

Branding exercise, nothing more. I can't see any reason why Nismo, who have an incredibly successful and talented team of engineers working on many racing projects across various platforms including the current GT-R, would need mass involvement from Williams to put some go-faster bits on some otherwise uninspiring (Zed and GT-R excepted) road cars.

I want to see the other smiling Aussie there, Daniel Ricciardo. He's deserving of a place, and I'd love to see him in a top-quality car.

There's no justification for it. I can see why you'd struggle to base an argument on that. I accept your withdrawal.

Best news ever! Webber & Porsche at LM24, it's going to be amazing.

Great game, too.

Thank god. Another one who's done the gene pool a favour. He wasn't even that good, just incredibly reckless.

Any update on this?

If you park over two spaces, you're a c*nt. End of. Might as well park in the disabled because hey, no-one was using it at the time, right?

You may not get pulled for 85 or below, but a camera will certainly grab you I do 50mph in the roadworks, no idea why people have such trouble sticking to a limit.

Good to see that Epsom have got their snow ploughs out nice and early this year

I always drive at 75 on the speedo. It's a speed that ensures good progress, and you'll never get tugged or flashed for it. I don't understand people who drive at 80mph+ but slow down to a crawl when they see a copper: Have they not heard of unmarked cars, or mobile speed traps? Just do a speed you're happy to do if in plain sight of a traffic officer, makes for a much more relaxing drive.

Quite possible, I know you said it in jest but it's a fair comment. It's true though, some people can drive and fiddle with the radio happily, some struggle just to stay in a straight line.

I actually found that Nissan's numbers were pretty accurate, for a change. I believe they say 24mpg on the combined, which is what I got from a 50/50 split of motorway at 70mph and country lanes giving it the welly in 1st and 2nd. Most manufacturers these days give you numbers you'll never get close to.

Some people are perfectly capable of operating a mobile phone safely whilst driving. However, we have to set the law for those that are not. I drove around for years using a mobile whilst driving, never had an accident once. Never came close either, mainly because I'm capable of doing more than one thing at a time.

Undercar neons? Is it 1997 again?

That makes no sense.

It's done the gene pool a favour, if nothing else.

What's the betting those over 100mph were either on false plates, non-UK cars or diplomatic cars?

Fairy muff.

Why not just use NW?

Read the very first paragraph Try Aussie imports. They drive on the same side of the road as us, and sometimes get US cars cars converted. Other than that, there's no-one I can recommend per se but there are still a few companies out there that do it. If these people can't source a vehicle, probably no-one can. They're based in my hometown, and is where my Dad got his Hummer from. They know their Yankee motahs.

The replacement will only be as good as the fitter, so you could get lucky and get someone decent with NW or you could get a duffer. For the sake of ease, I'd just let whoever my insurer recommended do it.
