I first saw it last year or was it the year b4, whatever......He's quite a character......but perfect for that test.......

There's a member on F/Alloys who has Jeremy's distorted face as an avatar and long b4 I knew what it was, I marvelled at that and wondered who and what it was........

I was delighted to learn of Jeremy Clarkson and his crew and of course about the Ariel Atom which was fairly new at the time.

The video followed on and like you, I watched it over and over and still can't get enough of his test drive......It's a hoot......

Edit; In case anyone missed the vid that Ian posted (it's way back) -- here it is again.. It really is worth watching again and again......:

You know we'd love to have you along with activities and lunch etc, in which case you'll need a form to submit as Ian has indicated.
I'm home this afternoon/evening in case you should call......
Colin.
Colin.
I'm planning on joining you boyz for lunch and beverages. Wouldn't want to miss out on that Atomic Buzz you will all be on.

I was thinking exactly that, maybe my other half might get convinced that it's a safety thing and would make me a better, safer driver I even mentioned that she could try it..........NOT !!!! Colin's a smooth talker, maybe he can convince her that I should go .

Consider it a done deal my friend.........

Wayne, I thought you guys had said it's too far for you......
If I'd know you needed 'help', I'd have chirped up b4 this....

Did everyone get their paid invoice? Just to be safe, we should have that with us July 18....
I stuffed mine in the glove box just so I wouldn't forget it.....

Only about a month to go......

I don't think they'll forget any of us but probably not a bad idea to have it anyways. I'll probably get my flight plans done in the next few days and will keep you posted.
