I can't see a dent on the passenger side anywhere. Did anyone else spot it ?
It definitely needs some polish. I might have another go at editing it tomorrow to add some filters. I'll be on that road again tomorrow so I might stop for a quick re-record of the audio (with DSC off
). Not sure I can conjure up some exploding caravans but I'm gonna look out for some 
I'm surprised nobody spotted the big big mistake I made. The audio track has La Roux singing Quicksand (a word she sings probably 50 times in the video), but the close-up of the iDrive shows the song AFTER Quicksand as playing The iDrive close-up was recorded on the way home which is why it's the next song.

j/k, obviously it needs music to accompany it, however you should try a shot from outside with the V8 really going for it, then a shot on the incide with relaxed / tranquil classic music, maybe cutting forward and back wards once or twice -- basically like what they do when Stig is gunning it around the track in some supercar. (I make this suggestion without any idea what so ever about the process of editing!)
keep those videos coming... :thumbups:

...that's because we were all listing to the V8 -- turn the music off!!!

I did try getting some V8 sound but all I got is wind noise. I need to borrow a Top Gear sound engineer
