Is the UK healthy to raise children in?
You are not a snob, you are a concientious person who has respect for herself and this then means you have respect for others. You don't need to send your kids to private school just move to an area that has a good school nearby, just because your area is a shithole, and it has been for hundreds of years, it doesn't mean other parts of the country are as well. Saying that I'm off to Australia soon so I can escape the stupidity of a socialist government that has not got a clue a society.

Fastest production car?
I think you will find that the Jun record is for a V6 engine car, this car is a V8 and a production vehicle but if you do a search I'm sure you will find cars that have gone over 350mph in speed trials at Bonneville, but with them being one off cars and made to beat records this car then becomes very impressive as a production car.

Fastest production car?
SSC Ultimate Aero Twin Turbo Breaks Production Car World Speed Record ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- WEST RICHLAND, WA (09/13/2007) Shelby Supercars (SSC), manufacturer of the ultra high-performance Ultimate Aero Twin Turbo, set the new "World?s Fastest Production Car" record earlier today with an average top speed of 255.83 mph. Confident of the 1183 hp vehicle?s abilities, SSC set out to validate their top speed claim in accordance with the strict guidelines set by Guinness World Records. Among other requirements, in order to meet Guinness? approval, a vehicle testing for the top speed record must drive down the course, turn around, and make a second pass in the opposite direction within one hour. The vehicle?s official ?top speed? is calculated by averaging the top speeds of each pass in order to negate any favorable road or weather conditions. Today, on a temporarily-closed 2 lane stretch of public highway in Washington State, the Ultimate Aero posted a top speed of 257.11 mph (413.83 kph) on its first pass and 254.55 mph (409.71 kph) on its return pass, yielding a new top speed record: a staggering 255.83 mph (411.76 kph). The data, collected by Dewetron's world-renowned GPS tracking system, will be verified by Guinness before the Ultimate Aero is officially crowned the "World's Fastest Production Car." This breaks the current official record held by the Koenigsegg CCR at 242 mph by 11.83 mph and the Bugatti Veyron's unofficial speed of 253 mph by 3.11 mph. SSC?s high-speed durability and aerodynamic test runs started in March on a 12-mile stretch of Highway 93 in Elko County, Nevada. After the scouting team discovered a more appropriate test site testing moved to open roads in SSC?s home state of Washington. Unlike these previous tests, which encompassed various durability trials of the Ultimate Aero?s drivetrain and powertrain, today?s session was dedicated solely to determining the vehicle?s top speed capabilities. A recently repaved two-lane section of Highway 221 in Washington was ultimately selected for the task, though navigating the road?s slight elevation changes and mid-way S-bend proved to be a challenge. Test driver Chuck Bigelow, 71 of Richland, WA, had to pass through the S-bend at a minimum of 210 mph in order to attain record speed during the following straightaway (with only 1.5 miles before braking was required); after the record-breaking run, Bigelow stated "if there was additional straight pavement on which to accelerate, the top speed would have been considerably higher and if anyone challenges your record there is tons left on the table". Lack of a dedicated test site, which many of the larger automotive manufacturers have at their disposal, was just one of the many obstacles in SSC?s way. Led by founder and lead designer Jerod Shelby, the SSC design team spent the past seven years creating, engineering, and testing the Ultimate Aero. "From the beginning, we felt confident that the Ultimate Aero was first in its class. SSC?s design team deserves their place in the record books for their tireless determination and motivation on this project. We are enormously pleased with the progress we?ve made with the Ultimate Aero and we?re excited to put more of these impressive machines into the hands of our customers," Shelby stated. "This is a dream come true," he said while celebrating at SSC?s production facility. "Everyone at SSC worked so hard in designing, testing, and building the Ultimate Aero, and now to accomplish this record is amazing. The fact that we are a small privately owned company and were able to do something much bigger companies haven?t done on massive budgets makes this so exciting for the entire SSC team." said Shelby. With 1183 bhp (882 kW) and 1094 ft-lbs (1483 Nm) of torque, the Ultimate Aero produces more emissions-legal horsepower than any other production automobile in the world (another Guinness World Record for which SSC is currently applying). Despite being designed to run at redline for extended periods of time, the Ultimate Aero remains remarkably drivable. The proprietary twin-turbo V8 power plant retains excellent idle characteristics, and thanks to a drag coefficient of just .357, wind tunnel testing calculates the vehicle to be aerodynamically stable to speeds up to 273 mph. Featuring all the amenities found in a luxury sedan, the supple leather/suede interior is highlighted by custom Recaro seats, a 10 speaker premium system, DVD/navigation/backup camera, and a cab-controlled lift that raises the front an extra four inches to navigate road hazards.

Fastest production car?
Faster than the Bugatti with a recorded speed of 255.83mph, just waiting for Guiness to confirm and its got the title.
-
fast fingers lol
I quite like the toon but that was great
-
Beautiful.....
I like the colour of the interior but not keen on the whole look of the car, I love the Gallardo and would buy one this minute if I could but hated the Countach and think this one is on the same sort of plane.
-
What can i buy for 180 quid?
Treat the car to a fluid change as has been said and then get it detailed.
-
I didn't know?
I will say GSF are very good and cheap, I have used them in the past. I heard they were doing Jap parts this year but my local dealer knew nothing about it.
