p.s. Alex I was in London at the time as well for the Gumball start. Rolled into the carpark driving all the way from Dublin in Ireland. Was staying in the Trafalgar that night, was checking in and you were in the hotel preparing I guess. I was the sheepish looking chinese guy in a big white coat.
Great car... nice colour, oh it is the same as mine

Yes it is a Merc ML. I think it is the brand new one as it isn't anything I have seen before. Although I am far from an expert when it comes to SUV's
I can see from this post that you dislike other people that want to go down the same route as you and I fail to see why. A bit of competition however lame isn't a bad thing. I would welcome another diesel entry from someone as I am sure is the same for you; virtually no one else would go to the time, money and effort that I or you have. A bit of competition in my eyes can only show the world what a lesser entry looks like. If someone else wants to double the cost of their car with man hours and R&D by supertuning another diesel then bring it on I say, and if their entry is superior then my next entry would set a landmark. The world is not a monopoly; there are organisations out there to see to that. It is only through competition in business that things really evolve...
Don't take what I have said the wrong way, its just a pinch of salt sometimes goes along way.
Right! For next year I will put the new BMW 3.5 Diesel engine into the Lotus and badge it up as a police car and somehow install a font of holy water in the boot while selling icecreams from the front storage area. That should about cover some of the more famous Gumball cars. Mussy can wear a police outfit while I copy the guy who wore the "fetching" lycra body suit.

You can't do that, because next year I'm coming as:
UNKDRPICH
"United Nations Kosovo Diesel Religious Police Ice-Cream Handout Transport"
Hey, it's never been done!
Best,
Alex

And I pray to you Father that it is never done! You obviously have not considered the religeous implications of trying to give an icecream to children at 150mph. I suppose it would be ok if you replaced your sirens with the musical tune traditional to an icecream van, but the chocolate sauce spraying everywhere could blind the vehicle behind you.... oh, thats ok as well... the car behind you is a black and orange SLR

HAHA...classic....lets hope this clown (Oliver - SLR) isn't in the gb2006...I don't want to have to teach him a lesson in manners.
No one needs egotistical pricks trying to show their lack of masculinity by being an arsehole like that chap. He better not be in gb 2006. Us aussies deal with guys like that in an interesting manner.
