First words are: "This car earned a ...... colleague" lol

Susie · June 9th, 2008, 06:09 PM

I have awful eyes, but all I can make out is

Modern Saloons, 1989
This car caused? a ..... colleague ... b?? gotta? (tadpole?) ..... a ..... for its ..... (gypsy?) grossly wounded.

Wow.

There's a much bigger pic here: http://www.flickr.com/photos/tonysph...70313/sizes/o/

This car ... a winded colleague ... ... ... ... a ... for it's own safety of while gravely winded.

Ambitious writing, but rubbish!

Hmm. Is there actually a law stating that? images/smilies/mellow.gif

Well only for the competition...

Hey guys, I ususally only lurk but I think the note on Jeremy's car says:

This car carried a wounded colleague from the ???? without a thought for it's own safety & while gravely wounded.

God knows what the ???? is tho.....worse than a Doctors writing lol images/smilies/biggrin.gif

hugs

"This car carried a wounded colleague then.... (gibberish) ... without a... (more scribbling) ... win safely + while gravely wounded"

At least that's what I can make out...

EDIT: Dang! Thief beat me to it!

EDIT: That gibberish is a place name of some sort, I think.

Don't forget, Thief, he is a 'Doctor'. Maybe this explains why his writing is terrible images/smilies/wink.gif

Hi all (first post - long time lurker),

I think that it reads as follows:

'This car carried a wounded colleague from the battlefield without a thought for it's own safety & while gravely wounded.'

HTH

Yes, I believe that's what it says - thank you, you must be very good at reading the good Doctors scrawl images/smilies/biggrin.gif

Sounds a bit like JC wants the car to receive the Victoria Cross

Ilpav · June 9th, 2008, 11:52 PM

Here's a video of some more pictures with a little girl narrating.

+ YouTube Video

Looks like Jeremy hated that Kia Sedona 2.9 CRDi TS so much that he let James drive it. images/smilies/lol.gif

Speedtouch · June 10th, 2008, 12:08 AM

Why did they take the Alfas away on a truck? I would guess they were headed for the track.

How long did you expect cheap Alfas to stay running?

And annoying. What's with this new trend of uploading still pictures on youtube? Surely just hosting the pictures somewhere would've been faster for the uploader and nicer from the user's perspective. images/smilies/dry.gif

Stopped watching (skipping through, actually) about half-way, so if there was some video in there, I apologise...

Thief · June 10th, 2008, 02:29 PM

Blimey.....HTH must be a genius to get "battlefield" from that scrawl lol images/smilies/biggrin.gif

and I forgot he's a Doctor (twice....by post!) images/smilies/biggrin.gif

and I agree....he's after a VC for his Alfa.

That pic vid was sweet but I couldn't watch it more than once, least not with sound, after Jeremy's recent bashing in the papers re swearing at a kid on hols (good on ya JC...kid deserved it) it's good publicity to see them happily interacting with the younger public.

Can't wait to see this alfa challange, specially if all 3 had to be taken away from a shoot on a truck lol images/smilies/biggrin.gif

hugs
