Awesome shots.
I'm so glad you didnt sell that car dude.
And I love how the silencer on a 360 back box peeps out at an angle.
Its like a silent neighbour peeping at the car following. Twitching at the rear bumper like it was some surburban curtains.

Visit the Blue Lagoon and do some jumping off cliffs dude, you'll love it! There are some really good organised things to do for not many pennies.

Cheers VND

I'm glad I didn't sell it either and I don't see myself ever selling it at the moment
Cardigan Bay is far more impressive to me than Pembrokeshire, the view away from the sea is as impressive as the view towards, especially in northern half. For you Mark, if you come along the M4 I'd turn right at carmarthen not left
I'll miss it when I have to move to the Midlands
