I knew you would like it :D

That was filmed actually by my friend with my camera when we were in one of these trackdays, similar to book a track and such I guess. Normal cars and normal guys get taste of track driving with bit smaller amount of money than usually.

Oh yes, there is few other clips too, white CRX was driven by my friend.

Oh yes and sorry for crap quality, forgot to take tape with me so recording was done to memory card...

Mrs Cornholio had a 340 before I knew her. When me met, I was driving the work's van (Fiat - sm72 ). Although the van was a newish vehicle, it was a total shed. I used to play the 'which gear is going to vanish today' game. I seem to recall that last time I took it out only second and fifth remained. Oh, and you had to pray that it didn't rain as the wipers were u/s.

Anyhow, as I'd never had my own vehicle (except for the LHD 2CV, which I try not to remember), Mrs Cornholio insured Affie when we inherited her from grandad. She had a no claims bonus, I didn't. Now, seven years on, I've just got the Redline which Mrs C has insured for £150. I thought, for a laugh, I'd see what it would cost me to insure it. £350! No way! So, hooray for girls and Volvos - saves me the cost of a year's worth of main dealer services. sm10 :340:

Now I feel the need of a little 125 to ride around on for a year or two, so that I can accumulate a no claims bonus of my own. I'd love to have a 'My other bike is a Volvo' sticker on it. Although it would cease to be funny once I got lynched by a mob of irate bikers... sm50
