He's driving a Corsa, he doesn't want to be seen by other road users?

actually andy, the pic i took was some time after it flew past my window!! Talk about picky!!

Rab - got it in one

There was another helicopter with it and they were filming the corse, so they may have been filming an ad or some promotional film???

it really freaks you out when your on the 4th floor of a building and a car passes the window
