Think this will do it?

I LOVE the Late Brake Show! Great that the 480 is getting the recognition that it deserves. Is the owner of F69NLP on the forums? I think I saw a video of that car in a comparison with an Aero deck a while back.

That would happen to be yours truly

The aerodeck was my friend Martin's

Nice car! I probably should have known seeing as the 480 in your profile pic is the same colour and spec

Haha, you kept that quiet! Very good. Car sounds great when he puts his foot down and some lovely camera angles showing the 480 off very nicely.

Hope you negotiated a blast in the DeLorean!

Apparently it had corrosion issues so couldn't be there for the shoot, ironic...

Well done Ben I really enjoyed this. There is also a possibility that Classic Car Weekly will be doing a piece on the rescue cars,here’s hoping.

Ooh, I am in two minds over CCW. Sometimes the quality is hit and miss and I do find myself skipping a lot of it, but it is good for keeping a finger on the pulse of things

Well done Ben - great video, and no, we can never get enough promotion for our beloved wedges. You certainly are an excellent ambassador.
Fingers crossed CCW go ahead on the Rescue Group.

Well done Ben, or should that be "Your Excellency", given what a good 480 Ambassador you are proving to be?

Good item - keep up the good work!

He'll be bringing ferrero rocher chocolates to the meet at the rate!

If I wasn't allergic to them

I loved this first episode but you know that as I was one of the first to tell you on WhatApp I hope they can find enough enthusiasts for a follow up as my friends from Weird Car Twitter are either too old (as in, over 24) or too shy to appear.

Thank you all for your responses it has been really encouraging, I don't suppose we have had a surge in interest by any chance?

As promised there is a piece on R3 in classic car weekly today. Hoping it will promote some interest in the rescue cars

Well done Norm ! Nice bit of pr for the rescue group. Hopefully R6 (the GT) will be ready for a new home in another couple of months and she's not spoken for yet !

In case anyone can't get a copy....
