    Slightly exaggerated title 🤔
    One thing I wanna say is I don’t feel like I emphasised enough how much of a transformation VRS made on the car. It is honestly a different car altogether. I’ll be doing a follow up video explaining how it drives. Make sure you’re subscribed for what’s to come for Wednesday video.
    Check out myself and VRS on Instagram in the following links:

      It's running nicely Calvin! Just the clutch on working order and able to put the power through makes it new altogether! Never mind all the other little bits done on the car!

    If you want a play about when picking a car up from VRS next time, when you come to that roundabout for the M1 go straight over instead of going onto the M1, straight over at the lights, follow the A road for a little and take the next left, some fun roads around there and a tunnel for noise haha!
