[Muppetboy]

Ha ha my garage isn't called Midnight Motors for nothing!!!

 

'Company' moto of 'PISSINF OFF THE NEIGHBOURS SINCE DAY ONE' sums it up really.

 

Once spent a full night changing the clutch in a RS Turbo the night before driving down to Le Mans.

 

The smell of stale beer, pizza, and fags really wasn't pleasent 5 days later when we got home...... Great weekend though.
