I think your UK plates look fine. But having a Mini with a Union Jack on the roof is a bit, er, German. Or (whisper it) French!

Dear Doug,
Yeah, I think that’s the best way to do it next time.
If there was ever any doubt that you were a manager in a corporate environment, this article should abolish it.
Dammit!! I call shenanigans!!

This makes me want another Test Drive Unlimited game.
What you did there...
That would make for a fantastic year of columns, for sure.
Best idea ever
This is pure excellence. I just bought a used Golf TDI; this wrap will be the perfect complement to the Rawtek Perf exhaust and Malone tune I have planned. Thank you for the wonderful idea!
I’m thinking Doug vs Volkswagen....buy a TDI and battle it out with VW, the EPA, and the environmentalists....and please have the car wrapped like above, it will look great at the dealership when you go in for the recall.
I would tend to agree, however, Austin especially is pricing itself out of many things. SXSW and ACL are becoming overcrowded, overmedia’d jokes, and they’re killing the music scene.

But I do like to see an all-new Targa Florio, Mille Miglia and/or Carrera Panamericana(even a Lap of Isle of Man) that’s entered by nothing but the supercars and hypercars (as well as GT3/GTE, prototype, rally and World Time Attack cars) of the last 30 years. And I mean the full balls-out old format, not the kind run…
