u.k. geek driver wanted

Dear Hugh,

ITV are looking for a test driver for our car series Vroom Vroom, currently airing on Sky.

We are test driving a car next Friday, 2nd June, and are looking for someone who would consider themselves to be a bit of a geek to test drive the car. The person needs to be up for a bit of a laugh with our presenter as the piece will be a bit of a piss take. We need someone who would like to appear on TV and who already owns a car.

Filming will take place somewhere within the M25 and possibly in the Surrey direction.

Those who apply must hold a current valid UK driving licence and be available next Friday [2nd June]. As time is of the essence, I need any interested people to contact me immediately.

Many thanks,

Michael

Anybody interested in driving a car please either leave a shout-out in the comments or send me an e-mail and I'll pass it along. Thanks.
