Well what about getting Jason Plato and Tiff Needell down doing some driving training ;) Or the hamster, May and Clarkson and see if we can make them love D's :lol:

Well maybe Edd, Paul and Mike would consider coming back?! :mrgreen:

Mike had a few stories to tell, first being how he spent many many miles driving the DeLorean getting lots of attention where ever he went, he said he had never got so much attention driving a car before :mrgreen: Anyway he got stopped several times by the Law enforcement over in California just so they could take pictures but at one point he asked the sound guy to get him some fuel. Off the sound guy goes and is gone for a while, on his return Mike asks what kept him. The sound guy explains while he was getting fuel a guy comes up and asks if he can take some pictures of his girlfriend in the car to which the sound guy says sure.
So the woman was sitting in the car while her boyfriend keeps saying to his girlfriend open your legs some more until, as Mike described it :mrgreen: , her 'tuppence' was on show 8-) . Of course Mike was some what disappointed as he only had Police men wanting pictures and the sound guy was out for 20 minutes and got what turned out to be a porn star in the car although Mike did mention he did keep that seat base ;)

The story from the picture above was to do with a certain Lotus specialist I was talking to Mike about, he even stopped filming to recant this tale....
When Mike and the film crew arrived at the Lotus specialist they had to walk back and though the yard bringing all the equipment in but the whole area was covered in dog poo, it was like a mine field so the owner of said Lotus shop decided he had better clean it up somewhat so out he goes with a plastic bag and picks up the poo using the bags as not to touch the poo with his bare hand. While he is doing this, and talking with Mike, one 'piece' falls out of the bag back onto the floor so the owner just picks up this piece with his bare hand, then says to Mike and crew...'anyone for tea??' Of course everyone said no that's fine thanks.
Then straight away they start filming and Mike has to shake the owners hand for the deal but after the first shoot the camera man pipes up, "sorry Mike missed it can we go again please". So 2nd take, the same happens again "sorry Mike still not right, one more time please"...by the 4th take Mike realises and looks round to see all the crew in hysterics :lol:

A facebook discussion going on right now points to Arran being the Terminator and then Neo from the Matrix. Based on the above image, I would definitely go with the 'he's Neo' argument. I mean just look. The mans feet aren't even touching the ground. Or maybe, just maybe he's seen a squirrel ;)

Does anybody have any pictures/vids/other proof that I was really there when the filming took place? I seem to have missed out on all the things as we were working on my injectors at the time.. I got some people that need proof... :shock:
