      Love n respect bruv, my grampy is the one who got me into cars. He collected Road and Track and Car n Driver mags since the 1940s and unfortunately, I just inherited them 😢. I recently got the fl5 he would have LOVED to ride in. Thanks for this video mate!!

    Great video, reminds me of when I took my grandad out for a ride in my ep3 many years ago.
    Sadly he’s no longer with us, but rest assured he’s taken that magical experience with him ❤😊

    Gramps is a legend, Im on my 5th ep3, Something just keeps me going back, had the pleasure of owning a new one in 2002, and that bug has never left me.
    Enjoy fella, and good luck with your venture 🫶🏼🤝🏻

      @BrandonDrives Sure mate, I went around the houses car wise, then I met V Tech, As I love bikes also, these cars remind me of bikes so much, especially when there cold, I've swapped my k20 engine for a k24, looking to reach the magical 300bhp NA this year. 🫡

    • @BrandonDrives
      @BrandonDrives  Před 7 měsíci

      @Rooney_the_grey_bird My old mans very much into bikes, always has atleast a couple of them 😅
      Think he has a Sazuki Hyabusa at the moment and a zzr1400. Whatever that means, I dont know anything about bikes.
      He's yet to drive the type r but be interesting to see what he thinks.
      Im hoping to remap my type r eventually to 260bhp ish n/a. Thats a year or 2 off tho i imagine.

      @kickassaz appreciate that, I'm lucky with this car as the rust is minimal, or was when I bought it 8 months ago. I've been thinking of taking to Motion Motorsport when I have the spare cpins like I think it was Olly Ross that did it too.
