My wife has had a pretty poor year healthwise so I thought I would cheer her up by arranging a birthday treat, a chauffeur driven car, on a run out in our beautiful English counrtyside.

I wasactually working (see my username), and as it was a PR day the car was fitted with a camera inside and out, so she also got given the footage

Dan i have been involved in catering for rally teams for 25 years, I had to pull lots of strings, and call in every favour owed to pull this one off, however if you wish to sponsor the team for £X00,000+ each year, they will put your name on the car and invite out to Greystoke for the day........yesterday was Castrol oils !!!!
but it is great when a plan comes off.
