He's 75 but still helluva sprightly and still actively involved in the cinema - especially tinkering with the projectors - but I doubt he'd pass the fitness test. Sorry dude.

Mini as it was. As it is. As it always will be. Everyone is entitled to their opinion, it's up to you to decide if it counts!

Luckily as everyone will be representing NM and NMS there'll be no speeding anyway
As I said ages ago, sorry to be missing this one folks.
Re. Speeding. Me and my pal Bill were away up North (Ullapool, Kylesku etc) 'road-testing' his new VW Polo TD (61 MPG overall driving normally) a couple of months ago - I think his wife just wanted peace for a weekend. ANYWAY.... we spotted quite a few Mobile Speed Traps in various locations where you'd never have seen them in years gone by. One particular one in a layby (Northbound) about 5 miles before Ullapool. Luckily we were in a wee Polo and not the S, otherwise I'd probably have nice shiny new points now.
So just BEWARE - the roads are so fantastic up there that you do tend to 'enjoy' them, but just keep it in the back of your mind that Big Brother could be round the next curve waiting to take your photo. Of course, there's just as likely to be a Tractor or a Deer - which will cause more immediate and painful damage! Stay safe and have a great run.

Highlands Speed Camera Location.Nearest Town/village: Kingshouse Hotel
Road Name: A82
Direction of Camera: Both directions
Speed Limit: 60mph
Speed Camera Details: Mobile speed camera van located between the Ski Centre and Rannoch Moor summit watch for the white Transit on the left in a "pull in" as you head southbound. It has orange lights on the roof. Its on the right as you head northbound. Just after passing the summit you crest a small rise on a long straight and you will see it about 500metres away
This white Transit gets about by the looks of it.

Just remember the top gear tip what was it again, over 176mph the camera doesn't register, well atleast Baz will be ok.
..... Zoooooooooooom.........
From Factory JCW to Audi TT Quattro - Might be back one day!
Not good Paul. Hope you feel better soon, especially after all the work you've put in to organising this event.
