I know you can’t say, but thinking out loud it reads as the one/ones that didn’t do the hard graft made the most money and ****ed off leaving a mess
Sure it's always the way

It did work out. You succeeded. You single handily put together an international live show from one of the greatest movie series of all time.
You put together the team, sourced the cars, re-engineered them to the balls then executed a perfectly choreographed show throughout the world.
You’ve achieved more than anyone else I know. And you’re not even finished yet.

This whole thing is why I lose a little more faith in humanity every day...
Especially considering how happy the show made people. I loved it and so did my gf and son. There was a wee boy sitting in front of us too heard him tell his daddy how awesome it was at the end.

Barry thank you very very much for your extremely kind words, man hug coming your way next time I see you !
Didn't do it alone but I guess the mechanics, and the choreographer and I and the drivers, we all done our jobs, shame a few others didn't really.
As for finished yet, hell no defo not I will never give up

Do a new arena show, call it The Quick and The Angry lol
In all seriousness though, best of luck for the future and thank you to yourself and all the team for a night we'll never forget

It was a real Murcielago when it was bought, one of two genuine ones from the movie. However it’s not much now and had plenty of wounds from the movie.
That’s the build price too not the ‘car price’ and it’s massive inflated

Sadly not Ben, it was tried but ultimately these guys knew what they were doing all along and have taken advantage of legal loopholes that they knew well.
It’s sad for many reasons but mostly because some small businesses have been forced to close their doors over it due to their losses

I see that most of the build costs are massively inflated, there's no way on God's green earth that the Supra cost over £100,000 to build.

Wasn’t far off actually from memory around 75k plus the price of the donor car
I remember your posts at the start about this and it seemed to be a great venture from a group of like minded petrol heads, who were excited about bringing the movie franchise we'd all grown up with to reality. Its unreal that a few people obviously had an ulterior motive from the offset .
Was this what you got the M3's for too or was that something else?

Out of interest where did they end up if you know?
Onwards and upwards Chris, you know our thoughts on the matter. Regardless of the way it ended, you have gained some invaluable experience and expertise in putting a show of this magnitude together and I'm sure it's only a matter of time till you can apply those skills to something else equally exciting for you.

Bryan all the pick up points are moved and everything is custom on them, ie you couldn’t revert them back to useable again. Be much cheaper just to import another Police car

It pains me reading how screwed over you and all the other people in the show got, but I have to say it was the best live action show I've ever been to!
Never forget that without you that show wouldn't have come to fruition and people all over the world wouldn't have those wonderful memories to share.
I wouldn't have this awesome picture either
