Gordo has some track days in his Calibra.

Opel did make this race car, did quite well for itself:

I remember the time when these were out and all the wannabe's had the same stickers over their road going cars, still at factory height etc, purely just stickers on the car.

Who is the guy in the Yellow S3 and throaty exhaust?
As nice as the car sounds bus lanes are for buses in the hours noted, plus not everyone wants to dodge out of your way as you nip inbetween cars, traffic light racing really is tedious you know  ;)
Everything is for sale, you just have to offer the right money

driving in bus lanes in operating hours is risky, it's not unknown for people to make right turns at intersections  or into driveways and hit illegal users (or people jumping into those lanes right on the end of the posted time), this is because the drivers turning are looking for buses that are clearly visible above queued cars and miss an approaching car, be warned!

I had a minor head-on in such a situation last year.

I was in the 'bus lane', but as it was some 7 hours before its operational period, I was in the right. But you'd never say so the way some of the parents who were dropping their kids of were carrying on though.

Curiously several of them were parked curbside, when challenged on this "we're just dropping the children off!" was the response. I then showed them the bus lane signage.

is smack talking on a vw audi sports klub forum about street cars.but if i had the one more like the one he
posted i wouldn't be trash talking about Ferrari's etc.it does not make sense and ruins threads for the
others.

Always happens, when have the camera, nothing, but you leave it behind and cars appear everywhere.
Beating up parking wardens ain't a crime.

Looks a totally fat obnoxious slob as well, still I guess you can't have everything
I know someone who has been on his personal staff, I have no respect for dot com. His history is full of deceit, fraud and dishonesty (a simple google will clarify this). We don't need more of those in this country. He can have his dirty money and take it with him. Happy to keep his cars though.
