Pro Drive are at Farnborough with the BAR.

I managed to ask a guy questions about the car. He gave me his phone number ( steady with the comments ) and he reckons he maybe able to give me a pres release, a little earlier than General Press!

Amazing what waving your trunchioun about will get you.

Any other cars there? why are prodrive at an airshow?
Some people will tell you that slow is good - and it may be, on some days - but I am here to tell you that fast is better.

Pro Drive and a few others are there to show off the carbon fibre bits and electronic gizmos.

Rockingham Babes are there too, and my CA t shirts getting swoped in the morning for hers!!!!!

The Jag F1 car is there, Scooby STI WRC on the Wales stand !

Santa Pod are there with 2 cars, a "funny" car and a top fuel dragster.

MG have a rally car and the SV ,

Seat have a BTCC car and, there is a Thunder Racing car - dodge i think.

STOP PRESS -

I have been offered a visit for a few"friends" later in the year to the factory to see the DB9R once they have pieced it together.

They will only make 10.

2 official cars, 1 test car and 7 for customers.
