seems like they are all saying well done to me m8 as lets be honest it is quite incredible that someone can get an old sierra to do over 200mph lol jus seem as they were put in their place a bit and are saying well done and if it is anything other than that then it is purely jealosy as they got beat by a sierra

I was there on the day, and honestly nobody seems to believe a Cossie is anything at all anymore unfortunatley, so when he did that everyone was proper shocked, especially as it was full of Ferrari's, TVRs, and Porkers.

I knew a few of them from meeting them at Supercar Top Speed day a few weeks before, but I think they thought I was messing about, lol...

the SLR is a Mclaren engine. surprised there is an amg version. All the slrs are maintained by mclaren and not mercedes. My mate is a Merc tech and he said they will never see one in the workshop cause it will goto a specially built mclaren facility.


And well done Rod for surprising the toff's
