The local BBC TV region to me (Oxford) did an article on favourite cars, after the presenter remarked how her dad's Allegro was 'rubbish'.

My Vitesse didn't make it to TV, but did get to the BBC Oxford website, along with my summary of the car (a bit frank!!).

In a follow-up to the articles the local (Oxford) BBC TV station did recently,
there is voting for 'my favourite car':

The SD1 really has had quite a few votes without me 'cheating' or
even asking people to vote. The SD1 has a local connection as many
were built at Cowley.

The camper van, mind you, had a load of votes in one day....

You've got to laugh at this voting. The VW camper van had 100
votes in the last 24 hours.

Just hope whoever is rigging this isn't a politician Laughing
