Fabulous car, Mark.

I used to drive a BMW 728, but now have a 3-litre diesel Vauxhall Signum, as I drive around 100 miles a day.

Amazing, Mark - actually taking your own car on a racetrack like that!

That must have been such an unforgetable experience for you.

Fantastic shot of you coming round that banked corner, with that Golf in hot pursuit!!

Haha! That's great, start them YOUNG! I love BMW's and no matter what else I buy in the future (most likely a Porsche), I will always have a Bimmer in the garage as well. They are a wonderful car to drive.

Well, most of the time i drive a Kenworth W900L, a semi, hauling freight over North America.


So I guess you could say i drive that mostly, i travel around 4000 miles a week, when i get back i drive a selection of things, some of which are included below, (if i can get them to work!!)

The include, (amongst others) a 1992 Corvette and a Landrover Discovery II 2005.

In the background you can just see a 1982 forward control (landrover 101) A wonderfull working tool, i had it for many years, and it proved quite the family member!

Same marque, wrong car. The Monaro is no longer made. This is the HSV GTS. 414bhp, electronic dampers, huge brakes. Lotsa fun.

The TT Blue Sub would go well with the scooter.
