.... and next thing you know I have a DLS Turbo on order as of yesterday haha. This time it’ll be lhd and will come with me to Dubai and Oman.

I’m here for any questions if you’d like to know more about the DLS or what my plans are with my cars.

Cheers

Why the change of mind on the DLS, I recall you saying you were a bit "underwhelmed" by the first one ?

was rhd and wanted lhd for dubai I think!

wouldn't mind being there right now, so cold outside in the uk!

deffo a bit pathetic for Singer to force people to take down negative videos of their cars, hiding from reality isn't a good look

Hey everyone

Long time no talk, yes my IG has gone. Just too busy with work and trying this ‘no social media’ thing.
It’s going well, I’ve spent more time on myself and my family and business. Lost 2 stone, got myself settled in the Middle East (still here for a while though), opened a new office in South Africa, opening one in Ethiopia and possibly Bali too. Spending a lot of time on the race track instead of the road.
So to stop any rumours about the DLS, me and Beardy filmed my collection of the DLS last year but it didn’t go too well. He posted it ages ago and I asked him to take it down as it painted singer in a bad light. As someone mentioned before, if is a ‘prototype’ style car so what did I expect!
I had a fair few problems with the car to start with but Singer sorted it all out and delivered me a great car. I decided to sell the car as I was moving to the UAE and rhd cars over there don’t really work out that well. I asked them to convert it for me but that was a no go. Anyways I sold it and yes I made a fair bit of money on the overs.

So it was all good and quiet and then SHMEE dropped that recent video, next thing I know I had a message from Singer asking me to take it down. I didn’t realise it was up and then I spoke to Beardy to take it down. He didn’t understand why Singer would get so pissy, as they have to take the rough with the smooth. To be fair I agree with that, it can’t all be one sided.
Anywayssssssss, he took it down, Singer thanked me, we got talking and next thing you know I have a DLS Turbo on order as of yesterday haha. This time it’ll be lhd and will come with me to Dubai and Oman.

I’m here for any questions if you’d like to know more about the DLS or what my plans are with my cars.

Cheers

Pete
Good to see you back.

That outfit suits you .....

Hope all goes well with hte internaitonal life and race series.
Assume the business in UK is being well looked after?

If you don't have a perm base, I take it you are not amassing a collection of cars? Dubai has some serious metal so there would be much temptation after pocketing the proceeds from the Singer ..... bowbow
Thanks, it’s much better than my gimp suit I have. Saying that I was 107kg when this was taken, I’m now around the 90kg mark so will need a new suit for this season, otherwise I’ll look like some teenager going for his first job interview who’s lent his fathers shirt haha.
I am getting a fair few cars whilst I’m in Dubai but it’s not what you’d expect.
My Purosange is currently sat at Stratstone Manchester waiting to be picked up alongside my 296 GTB and my soon to be delivered 296 GTS, 812 Competizione and SF90 XX.
I’m trying to work with Ferrari to see if I can do a swap and get them swapped at Ferrari Dubai. We will see.
But my day to day drive over there will be a GMC Yukon Denali. Love them, they’re so oversized it’s stupid.

Nice to see you back.

What got sold and what got kept in the end?
I sold the 430 Scud, 575M, Singer DLS and the Bentayga.
However I replaced the Bentayga with another Bentayga, bought a Network Q winning Mini, bought the New Zealand winning Burns/Reid Subaru, and got a DB5 to replace the one that was stolen years ago.
Sooooooooo, not really doing to great to be honest haha

Glad to hear you're OK and have made the move overseas Pete.
Are the rally cars going with you? Surely they can work on any continent.
The rally cars are staying in Ireland and have actually been growing. What can I say, I have an addiction haha

This is true but it would have also been better if it worked properly and I had more time with the car, getting the next one in lhd will help a lot more with time spent in it.

Thank you, hope you’re keeping well too.
I have kept the bikes, in fact I managed to bag myself another Petronas bike in its flight case too, that’ll be another piece of artwork in the new gaff.

The new suit, being smaller, may be lighter and shave nanoseconds ....
Good luck with getting the cars in DBX instead of Manc.
The SF90XX looks like a weapon! Gonna have it our on the track?
The road to Oman is pretty special - that would be some journey in that or the 812C
