French Car Show Videos

With only 38 days left until the Adrian Flux French Car Show 2008, at Rockingham on June 22nd, we're working flat out to help make sure that this year's show is the best yet.

For us that means taking an unprecedented number of Flux Babes, getting an even bigger and better Scalextric circuit, and sorting out free popcorn and candy floss, plus loads more besides.

So we thought now might be a good time to take a look back at last year's show, so here, for your entertainment, are some video interviews we did at the 2007 show, including some of the owners whose cars were good enough for the Meguiars show car enclosure, as well as some of the club members, whose cars ranged from the sublime to the Tigger.

Can't wait for the next one...

Practise Safe Sex - by modifying your car!

If, like Bernhard Stadlinger, you are feeling lucky after a night out on the town, and manage to get it on with a young lady you've met at the disco (well, he is German!), then you may well face the same problem as him.

After all one black VW Golf looks much like another, and if, like our 24 year old Bavarian chum and his unnamed lady friend, you choose the wrong one, you could be in trouble. When the middle aged owner of the car came back and found the windows a bit steamy, she called the police, and poor old Bernhard found himself with some explaining to do.

Now if only he had fitted a smart bodykit, mad exhaust, bling alloys, and some window tinting to his car he would have had no trouble finding it. You've got to wonder, though, how it was that, according to the press reports, his key fitted the locks on both cars.
