I used to have a picture of my D3 going up the Prescott Speed Hill Climb in Gloucestershire. I'd cooked the brakes on my 306 GTi and still had some runs left.

Wasn't quite the same Confused Rolling with laughter

Is "beating Sabrina in the Transit" on your "to do" list ?

Like "whipping for Nigella in the Kitchen" Whistle

I'm surprised all that flat-out speed didn't flatten the battery Laughing - like when you leave your torch on its brightest setting for too long.

I didn't see any lamposts either where one could give our future boris cars a bit of a boost. Perhaps it had a combustion engine.
