Wow! Even Bentley's new off road toy with its mahoosive Diesel engine doesn't have that much torque. Though I would probably want to try that with the Bentley if the opportunity were to present itself..

That seems to have taken ages to arrive after the previous episode, glad it's here now though.
Getting withdrawal symptoms already!
Wonder how much longer that is going to take them??
