Default on the last day of the year.....

on the last day of the year i went for a "tunnel run" with a bunch of people from petrolheads! had a really cool morning blast the car around cardiff with a great gang of people who ive never met before!

heres some photos






they could of edited the stone chips from the front bumper



















the NSX made my day,,, it sounded amazing as it had some fancy exhaust on it, and it was an nsx-r

didnt really know if people would like a cossie going with them, but most of the comments i had was all good! they all loved the ALS in the tunnels

i think someone got a few vids,, ill post them when i see them

Cracking looking car mate ..... but I suspect I can put the wheel choice down to the fact that your Welsh and you didnt want to go to far away from the sheep element!
