My (Very Amateur!) GT86 Review Video

[Daggers89]

Evening!

Had an hour with a GT86 a few weeks ago so decided to make a review video. Completely unscripted and it's the first time I've done anything like this so go easy on me! Just thought I'd share it here incase anybody's interested!

"Sort of" ;-)

Very brave!

I enjoyed watching it

16 mpg though? That's a fair bit of performance testing

[Geekman]

Great video - really enjoyed it. I met you and Luke at the NEC - I was James' friend with the Jag/MR2.

[elementad]

Nice one. I was on the edge of my seat with that first slide you did!

[Skylinecrazy]

How very brave indeed, I'm sure the usual culprits will be a long to have a swipe soon Daggers!

Enjoyed it actually, and like you said - the first of many perhaps! Shame you couldn't have had it for curb really!!

[mikearwas]

I can safely say your driving is well above average.

[Buff Mchugelarge]

I liked it, refreshing,honest and made me laugh, good job.

[16plates]

Yep, good effort, not very polished at the walk around stage but i liked it! Well done.

[Petrolhead95]

You could be a model, Luke

Nice man on the street review.

That thing on the shoulder of the seat 'whats that all about', my immediate thought was its to put the seat belt through so its easier to grab, then if you want to put your burly friend in the rear you can unclip it easily.

Someone please correct me if i'm wrong on its use.

Some good driving roads around Whitmore

I'm going to hell....

Wow! Thanks for the kind words guys, I only uploaded it here for a bit of banter really so it's nice to read the positive comments.

I agree that the walk-around wasn't very polished at all, and there are definitely things I'll change for (hopefully!) my next video.

It was completely unscripted so I was actually trying to make most of it up as I went along (hence the use of "sort of" about 15,000,000 times).

Live and learn I guess, thanks again!

Wouldn't take long for a NON PH to blow this out of proportion.

Delete the video and remove this thread IMO.

Stuff like 1 minute 48. You are seriously asking for trouble here.

Curious as to why you think this? From inside the car I had a clear view of the road and also had a lookout to make sure it was safe. It's no worse than what you see on a regular basis on public roads from other road testers.

Not trying to start an argument, just curious to know your thought process is all.

[LukeSi]

While pressing buttons we set the speedo to kph accidentally...

[Sump]

1:48secs in the eyes of a tosser you are driving like an utter mentalist.

You are seriously underestimating how many ignorant retards make up the general public.

Your video is asking to be sent to the police.

[LukeSi]

That isn't even that bad tbh, just correcting a slide on a slippy corner. I was signalling if there was any cars coming and had a clear line of sight either side of the corner.

Completely safe, had a car been coming I would have signalled to slow down. Exactly what proper road testers do.

[Manicminer]

Nice vid - sort of

Such a difficult thing to do and I think you did a pretty decent job of it. Love the little oversteery bits too.
