I have not been working a lot on my cars in the recent time... But as the beast has been in a phot-feature last summer, I thought I'd dig out the old thread...

After servicing it for the phot-shoot I took it for a drive, testing a cheap video camera:
Enjoy on youtube!

Later on, after a full day shooting pictures in the blazing sun, here is a small(ish) scan of the article that was the result. I know the scan is too small to actually read it, but I am very impressed with the quality of the pictures: http://www.aronline.co.uk/misc/alex-tmp ... rticle.pdf
More cars then sense.... :)

Nice! Youtube vid was good too! Shame there's no way of linking direct to the original magazine article, that would make interesting reading. Had a quick look on aronline and found your beast in a couple of articles but not that magazine article (had hoped they had translated it as well - no such luck!) sadly.
Cheers,
Dave
