A pal of mine took his DB9 to Nurbergring a few years ago to drive the 'experience......................'

He totalled it.  And no 'track insurance'.
At my age, it takes me all night to do what I used to do all night!!!!!!!!!!!
Then, growing old is compulsary, but growing up is just optional.

I don't do GREEN, I've got a 4x4

A stuntman has been injured whilst filming a car chase for the same film.

not much wrong with that dbs,  most of it will come out with a bit of tcut  hahaha

glad the driver was ok,  unlike the one in the Alfa,  just goes to show  how much more safe an expensive sportscar can be!
Of course I buy green cars, my Aston is green, my MGB is green, my Disco Sport is green,  oh, that's not what you meant by green?

link to the news report, and a clip.

As far as I have read, the stund driver is stable in hospital.

Not having much luck on that film.
