Grant broke a 2005 record of 69 donuts set by Dale Morrison, using his road-going Sagaris fitted with standard Yokohama tyres. He performed for the Guinness World Records TV show in Madrid, Spain. "I"m a bit dizzy now," he joked afterwards.
Finding the greenest...
Finding the greenest used cars will be made easier, if a new scheme from HPI is a success. The vehicle history data company has introduced its own eco-sheets, containing environmental information about used models. They’re free to dealers, and follow a similar design to those for new cars to help second-hand buyers see CO2 emissions more easily.
Owners of older Land Rovers can now go green, too, as the firm’s ground-breaking carbon offset programme has been expanded to include older cars. By visiting the Climate Care website at http://climatecar.org.uk/landrover buyers can use the CO2 calculator.
