The only saving grace is that it couldn't have been the owner as he never drives the thing.

Isn't that usually because it's getting rebuilt / fettled with a lot?

I know that stretch of road where the Octy was driven along, they went along it a bit faster than I do though!

I agree, nothing like providing the evidence for the prosecution

Whilst I dont disagree with people having a bit of fun, its different when someone pulls out in front of you on the motorway and doesn't see you approach or appreciate the speed you are doing, and thats with blue lights and sirens and the training to cope.

Would love to take some people to the aftermath of fatal accidents and see how they feel about it then.

Besides that though it doesn't seem that impressive on the acceleration front,
cant possibly have as much horsepower as claimed.

Regards,
Steve
