It's little more than sensationalist journalism

I'm all for a zero limit to drink driving but in the same way you wouldn't chastise someone or call them reckless for driving at 75mph in the UK I just think it's all too easy to blame alcohol when purely based on my drive down that road 30 minutes earlier then even I'd been teetotal all my life it was virtually impossible to keep the car straight with the crosswinds that were present

"reckless drunk drivers"

If he was in the UK he wouldn't have even come close to failing a breath test so isn't that a bit harsh Justin?

I drove down that road about 30 minutes earlier (yet another Ikea experience!) and the conditions were horrific. The crosswinds were blowing the car all over the place and when overtaking large vehicles it's always a bit of a gamble when you pop out the otherside or come close to it so I can totally understand how this could happen

A bit of a strange one but does anyone know of anything clubwise that hire motor circuits to drive on ? I know about these guys, www.trackdaysspain.com having seen their car driving around Riviera/Calahonda and I know about Ascari but I know there are other circuits scattered around the area and wondered if anyone knew where I could get my fix of trackdays that I'm missing since leaving the UK. Anything I find on Google just seems to mention bike trackdays but I like my fun on 4 wheels as it doesn't hurt so much if you come off !

Georgia,

Could you send me details of any lease deals you know of, we're currently doing long term hire through a car hire company but it's costing 550€ a month at the moment for a 5 door TDI Leon so it seems there are savings to be had. I searched high and low for a lease company but found nothing !

Any info greatly received

Andy
