very clever.

not sure about the 5.00 x 19 tyres, they look a bit big.

although the driving style was much like my own. eratic and mainly on the wrong side of the road Big Grin

loved it though.

Works on a PC, too. A fun game - and the details just get better and better.

From the test drive, it looks like it has about 70 BHP.  Maybe 5.00 x 19 Tyres aren't such a bad idea !

Clever but I'd rather have the smell, the cold & the sensations.
I also missed the feeling of water going up the trouser leg when hitting the ford.

It also appears to have an automatic gearbox as the driver doesn't take his hands off the wheel as the gears change.

The gear changes are also remarkably quick; it must have a seriously-lightened flywheel  Big Grin
