That was a fantastic video and great choice in music. Very fitting. Wow... I'd love to drive these roads.

Well done video! I want to go back and drive these or similar roads.
Two years ago I did a fun trip to Zuffenhausen and 6 years ago I rented this TT and drove some fun back roads in the Holland/Belgium/Germany region with my son. We stayed in Valkenburg (Valkenburg castle on the hill) and went to the F1 at Spa. Wish I had a GoPro back then.



The Video posted makes me want to go back soon and drive and drive!. I better start planning for 2013.......

What about any tickets handed out?

Do drivers keep right now in the UK or just Scotland as your video seems to display?

This is also the best viral marketing ever. No recent Porsche ad sells the cars as well as this video.
