Guy takes his Monaro to his local garage to have a radiator leak sorted..the following vid, bearing in mind it's GARAGE staff driving, is shocking :tosser: Top speed was something like 125mph iirc..

You got to admit though, thats one SEXY sounding engine lol

No doubt..but it opens your mind to what goes on when your car goes in for a service!

thats why i take notes on mileage and get managers to sign it

mate worked in mackie motors so i know first hand what goes on in the garages especialy when mackie himself bought a new 350z when they came out and mate took it for a TEST run when he was meant to be washing it for him hehe

Though I've not got a 5.7 litre, 170mph odd VX, I still worry about my car being left at the garage. Was so paranoid about it when the guy had to drive the 20 miles from East Kilbride to Paisley when the courtesy car packed up. I do trust them though, certainly a heck of a lot more than Arnold Clark.

I have to say, if I were handed the keys to a Monaro, I'd maybe be tempted to do something similar. Though I'd at least stick near the speed limit

after we had the clutch done in the coupe 20vt got it back from the garage with mud up to the rear window and we dropped it off after having it cleaned so no need to guess what happened when that car was dropped off
