Well it's not looking too good for this week... Finish at 8pm on Tuesday and just before 9pm on Wednesday. I can try to swap for something better but it'll be difficult at short notice.

Do you have somewhere that is well lit where we can have a look? I can see this having to be done in the dark.

Hi Adam leave it this week mate, dont want to course u any probs, plus lighting is crap at night and the weather is going to be crap this week. I can sort out a tarp roof for us, but as i said dont want to course any probs mate.

Human trafficking good business ;)

Hours can be a little antisocial and at times there are language issues, but it's certainly a lot less stressful that tuning Subarus for a living!

But at least you can out run the law ;) 

I'm not too sure about that... Ask Tlag what his day-job is, ie what he does when he's not building Subaru engines. :p

He's a copper ? 

Hmmmm, I could answer that but on the grounds that I may then have to kill you, I won't answer it :) :)


Please don't say a Speed camera operator. Or an Audi test driver. All else I can forgive ;)

Adam i drvie 4 Wiseman dairys out of Droitwitch for my sins.

Ah I know it well. About 8 years ago I used to drive coaches to and from there to take the staff to and from work. I later left public transport but returned earlier this year and now drive buses, mostly around Upton-Upon-Severn.

'Please don't say a Speed camera operator. Or an Audi test driver. All else I can forgive '

If I was either of those, I would shoot myself :)

This is my normal daily driver,

Audi test driver could be fun. Anyone else here driven an R8? It's an amazing car. And just think, you'd be paid to go to the Nürburgring and I wouldn't have to remind you to try and get time off work to come with me. HINT. Next month. HINT HINT.

That photo of your company car seems a little small... I've seen better examples. Where's the one of it next to your Limited?

To be fair I know I give Audi some stick it's not the car's I hate it's the W8nkers that drive them and not all of them just 98% of them :) 

And funny enough I live near a port that drop's them off among many other cars. And a friend of mine on Facebook posted the name of a famous footballer it was for :D Said the R8 is a very nice car to drive. But it had a speed restriction still on it, but 120mph was possible on private roads of course ;)

A Jap import R35 Gtr is none restricted, and won this years top 10, mile drag race again, R8, SLR black and GT3 all so run. The vid is on YouTube.

Don't get me wrong I love the R35 skylines I should have added it to my top 10 in another post might have to lose a car :) Mclaren mp4-12c for more money is the only car to beat it

I love so many different cars id need an aircraft hanger ( when i win the lotto )

I know this sounds sad but I don't play the normal lottery as I see it as a waste of money... Just because if I won wouldn't cover my garage dream list not even by one car :D
