Brands 6th September

Just been looking on the Racecarsdirect.com website and came across an advert for Matt Neal's old 99 Nissan for sale and a Honda Accord Touring Car.

It also says that Yvan Muller will be driving these two cars at Brands on the 6th September, does anyone know what event is on at Brands on that date?

Here is the link to the advert:

Oh I thought it was a Sunday!!

Does anyone know why Muller will be driving the two cars? As the cars are for sale I cannot see the reason why Muller would drive them for the day or what benefit it will have to the people who own them.

If people see the cars being hurtled around a track at race speed, they will be mroe keen to buy them, which would push the price up - good enws for the seller.

If its not during a proper race meeting, do you think that many people will be there?

It will be a test session. Most likely Muller will be there as part of a magazine article or similar.

Well I bet it brings back good memories for him from the good old days of Super Touring!!

Wonder if he's forgot how much faster the Super Tourers are compared to the new BTCC cars!

My understanding is that Yvan Muller is testing various touring cars back from a Lotus Cortina upto the Astra, and on the way a couple of supertourers, for a well known magazine.

Yes it is, i bought it. Was quite a good write up but the article doesn't include the two super touring cars (Primera and Accord) which I thought is was going by the advert i seen on racecarsdirect.com!!
