He has enjoyed years of success as a somewhat controversial talk show presenter for many radio stations and TV shows, including currently Kerrang 105.2 FM, where he hosts The Asylum Show, Sunday to Thursday evenings 10 pm to 1 am. This is currently the most listened to talk show in the UK.
You may recall Tim’s name all over the newspapers and TV news last year, due to his wife selling his pride and joy Lotus Esprit Turbo on Ebay for just 50 pence after a marital “disagreement “!! True story !
With the above Lotus issue in mind ,last year Tim asked Crest Automotive Tuningto help him with his new project, to get himself a replacement car, a supercharged BMW automatic no less, at a cost of just 50 P !! Well we managed this by enlisting the help of many of our top suppliers who all came forward with sponsorship by donating most of the top quality parts required to build the car. Crest Automotive Tuningthen managed the whole project, finding all the sponsors, supplying all the carbon fibre parts and most of the labour and installations.
At the time of writing, the car is being filmed for appearances on the TV motoring programmes "Pulling Power" and "Fifth Gear", and will feature in many public events and motoring magazines during 2007 / 2008.
We believe this is is the most powerful automatic 330 in the UK, if not then it is certainly in the top three.
The imgaes show the car in uncompleted form during the first phase of TV filming, we will post up better images of the completed car soon.
The specification ( so far) is as follows :
