Is that the JCB test track?

Same place alain de cadinet does his filming.

In the days before Google, places like this could be more easily concealled. Sir Anthony has a very decent collection of cars to play with round here: http://maps.google.co.uk/maps?hl=en&ll=52.9850...

I didn't understand the secrecy bearing in mind previous articles...

I didn't know that was there! Hilariously close to where my sister lives... hmmm, might have to take a stroll next time I'm up there!

Given the 180lb ft defecit between the car in the video and the production vehicle (and the added weight of actually having an interior) would the actual performance not be somewhat blunted compared to what we see in the video? Or does Ed Copley just not know the difference between lb ft and NM as if he'd meant NM the figure he quoted would be about right...?

Having also just watched Chris having fun in the Merc AMG Black - I wonder if his comments on this video about the Bowler being 1700KG and being heavy makes much sense when the AMG is similar (more) weight?
