Been a while since I've had time to visit this thread...
Awesome stuff Ash! Your website and photos keep getting better.

Those calendars are too tempting; had to get one.

A mate forced me to drive his Porsche 997 today, wanted me to realise how good they are in their own right or something. :p

I know what you mean, I've been a member since 2002 but only recently became active (279 total posts in 5+ years :D).

Pity his category wasn't timed...

It would have been interesting to compare.

I also get the feeling that he hasn't driven much in the way of left-hand drive cars, because he is not sure where the right-hand side of the car is through the corners and is leaving too much space. Of course, that is totally understandable when you're driving such a car. :)

it's the new Hyundai Tiburgini. I'd recognise that yellow anywhere. Same as what's on the Accents.
