    I'm the brains behind the outfit, Dave is the monkey! But a brilliant one at that in my eyes :) I'm not technically minded, but I do love to see how people modify their cars, and I have always dreamt of having my own some day. Once I met Dave, I knew straight away that dream would come true :)...
