Goodwood Revival 16th - 18th September

[DCPU]

I'm looking at this and starting to think that nobody at Ineos has a clue what to do with the exterior utility belt.

It looks like they sent the YTS kid to IKEA with a tenner and told him to do the best he could.

Right then, the front bumpers are different as the silver car is South African spec with steel bumpers and the other is UK with plastic bumpers.

Yes that’s right. But from nearly the same angle it looks not that bad at the dark one. Don’t you think so?

The proportions seem more pleasing on the silver one, but I must first see it in the flesh.

Technically, deeper bumpers have the advantage of a deeper crush zone. Less damage to the car upon minor accidents.

Thanks Steve.

I really like the camp table, especially the steel arms.

Am I correct in thinking the camp table was originally shown with wire straps??

I think so:

Note the sticker that says..."not exceed the load limit" - what is that limit I wonder?

It does seem a bit exasperating to refer to a Handbook, when the simple thing to do would be put the actual limit in!

agree emax - the silver car bumper looks about the perfect depth - deep enough to sit on but not so deep (the other car) that it looks disproportionate

Individual stickers with limits printed on them cost at least 0.00001 cent more per piece than generic ones due lower order quantities.

That would cause the entire calculation to collapse.

Who did the welding on those gas cans? At least the paint looks good.

Yes.

The stand does look great.

Is it one each of the Belstaff editions?

And I have to say your photos are miles better than the "official" Ineos FB feed...

I just noticed your 82nd SIG insignia. I was in 307th MED BN back in the day supporting 2nd BCT (325 AIR). AATW.

Bad craftsmen.
Or even worse programmed robots?

Yes it is.

Apologies for lack of words and short replies today. It was rammed on the stand and tried to get through as many questions as possible, sorry if I missed any but did my best in the time I had

 

[emax]

No worries. You're awsome!

What camera did you use? Is it just a mobile phone or something bigger?

Great work, thank you - I'm surprised you found time to deal with all those potential customers.
