This is not my video before AndrewW-G or anybody else claims I'm trying to make money off it, but I was watching this car a lot yesterday and although this was from a warm engine I was wondering in the real world how much damage this actually does to the car?

The plate says it's a rental: "Like It. Hire It. Drive It. seasoncars.com"...........

That was uncomfortable to watch...

Not much if the car is warm, but it is a pretty infantile thing to do. Anyway these cars sound a lot better when the car is under load not sitting still in traffic

These people need to grow up, it’s not big and it’s not clever

Agreed, if I see the guy filming I'm going to ask him to stop pushing people to do such things. The girls driving it were just having a bit of fun.

When driving a Ferrari etc. through London there is nothing worse then a inbred camera wielding tourist yelling at you to "rev it".

Err...no f**k off I am just trying to drive home.

Agreed, I'm getting it a bit in the Aston and it's a bit irritating. So many people ask you that it's just annoying.

Hence, roof up/windows up and aircon on in traffic always!!!

And in tunnels as long as there are no pedestrians and speed limit is high enough it should be encouraged!

The music coming from the radio tells you all you need to know about this clip.

When have I asked somebody to do something they shouldn't do? The answer is never, ever.

Anybody who wants to can film me driving around, so long as they don't bother me going about whatever I'm doing.

You haven't - I am just saying it's a bit ironic you are complaining about this. Not everyone wants to be filmed without their permission and have the videos put on the internet...

Not that I care personally - I enjoy watching them!

Cross purposes here. I don't think it's right for the other spotters to be all up in people's faces. I would never go up to somebody and put pressure on them and go out of my way to cause annoyance, I try to be anonymous as much as possible and the vast majority of my videos are at events, shows or of non-moving cars.

Is it an F1? Is that clutch smoke coming out the back?

It looks like white dust from the silencer, i've just had mine replaced as it was doing this, doesn't look like clutch, you wouldn't be able to rev like that with the clutch engaged.
