If so you should give serious thought to buying this car:

I've never, ever laughed so much at a car ad in all my life.

I keep going back to read it again and again...

Speaking of which, I'm doing a little jaunt to Austria next year during which I hope to see a bit of the Tour Auto. Any tips on best stages / races?

Wow. So much to hate about that. I'm sure the car shouldn't be having a BRDC badge on its flanks either - I really hate that.

I particularly like the Paris Dakar 3'' suspension raise. Am sure that comes in handy when you're flat out through Eau Rouge.

The track element is always the best place to see TA, mainly as you get to see the cars going round and round rather than zooooooooooom/dust/gone smile

Have a look at this:

Really shows the TA at its best. Such a massive variety of cars and performance. Plus some of the drivers are race specialists, some road rally guys, some gravel. Just a brilliant brilliant thing to watch.
