My Tour of Prodrive
 

well. words cannot describe the day ive had. managed to get a 1-1 tour of The Prodrive facility today. Truely amazing is nothing!!!!! the place is a work of art. i was allowed to see pretty much all of what goes on, and the pictures dont do the company justice enough. i wasnt allowed to photograph all areas, but this is just a small collection of my pics today. the cars that they turn out are outstanding. its really a shame that most of them get damaged :cry:. its amazing to see the transformation from standard 08 Hatch STi into group N rally car and in a couple of places, into a WRC car. and then you see the racing astons :notworthy:notworthy:notworthy:luvlove::luvlove:

The heritage centre is again, amazing. pieces of motor racing history that I have sat in. :D .

i also managed to pick up an extremely rare peice of memorabilia. an item that ive been searching for a long time for. it wasnt cheap but in my mind, worth every penny. i will take and post pics of that item tomorrow :D

but for now, heres a little peak inside the world of Prodrive......................,

P.S many thanks to J.I you are amazing :thumb:
