Default Wheeler Dealer - short video clip of N1XKO at Longcross Race Circuit

Hi Guys ,
I finally got some of the "Wheeler Dealers" rushes edited and set to music , many thanks go to John the cameraman for his help with my little project
Thanks also to NormanD for the offer of his sons help
Longcross is fairly unique in the UK in that a lot of it looks like a public road but this feature allows cars to be driven at any speed and on either side of the "road" without fear of anyone coming in the opposite direction

Hope you enjoy this ......................... more footage to follow when I've sussed it out a little more


All the best ,

Nik

Looks great Nik, I'll be looking forward to the next instalment?

Did anyone ever win the competition that squeezed you out?

........ and Keith should be called Sherlock Holmes for that bit of detective work finding the competition winner.

Looks great Nik and the location seems familiar from many TV and films. The production company really stuffed you with this but you've come out of it with some great footage.

Can't believe those exhaust tailpipes - the insides look cleaner than my car!

Beautiful.

With all due respect to my droptop brethren, the lines of the 96-06 coupe are just pure perfection.

Thanks Nik...your video makes me love my car even more.

By the way, are you still building a website or page that details your car and its modifications?

I have to reluctantly agree. If I wasn't in sunshine land I'd be tempted.

The interior is Ivory ( Jaguar code NED ) , I believe earlier cars were cream and from 98 onwards Jaguar altered the shade slightly to Ivory ,

All the very best ,
