    Bad Drivers

    Bit of a random one this, but I fancied having a moan about the appalling quality of a lot of the driving on our roads. Sometimes it's so bad it actually scares me. I think my biggest pet hate, or one of them at least, is people who randomly brake for no reason. Not necessarily heavy braking...

    I have a swiss trophy and the previous owner removed the standard recaros to fit bucket seats.

However, the Swiss edition came...
