14 March 2007

Welcome to Auto Trader’s Videos of the Week. Over the past seven days, we’ve brought you some classic motoring clips from the web, from the funny to the plain unbelievable.

Adrian Hearn rounds up the footage you loved the most.

Driving School Uncut – from The Weird World of Wheels

Maureen Rees became a celebrity in the mid-Nineties, showcasing her hapless driving skills in the BBC series Driving School.

But when 80-year-old Therese Smith re-took her test in Florida, she made Maureen look like a pro.

Alex Eckford came across this accidental ram raid for his Weird World of Wheels column.

 

Airborne in Melbourne – from Trackside

The first Grand Prix of the season kicks off this Sunday with 22-year-old Brit Lewis Hamilton making his F1 debut.

He’ll be hoping he doesn’t start the season like Ralf Schumacher did in 2002.

Trackside’s Keith Collantine delved into the archives for this classic footage.

 

Fruit? This Opel’s all meat – from Look at the Wheels on That

The Opel GTC was one of the hottest concepts at last week’s Geneva Motor Show.

With its 2.8-litre V6 producing 300bhp, this hot rocket is set to be a bona fide muscle car.

Jet-setting Stuart Milne fell for the GTC when he visited the Swiss show last week.

 

Bonus Video: Aston Thriller

Aston Martin is back in British hands after Prodrive’s David Richards led a £450 million consortium to secure the brand this week.

In this clip a race-bred Aston takes off after losing control, flying 142 foot through the air – 22 foot further than the Wright Brothers’ flight in 1903.
