    The look on your faces when he takes off says it all... what a superb built car by a man who clearly knows his engineering... There is an episode of the late brake show featuring a genuine 6R4 and this one is better in every way. (must add same engine though, seems to be the way forward and needs far less servicing) good video lads, liked this one a lot.
