What a great result.

Bamford putting a bit back in from the success he has in business, and backing the team first hand.
The oldest team member is in his 70's and the youngest in her early 20's.

Good stuff!

Wonder if Audi could do it? (as cheaply)

But the UK is overrun by foreigners, doesn't have a manufacturing industry and has a history of failure. Shurely shome mishtake?
