7 travaux d'Amour
. 1st - for my kids
. 2nd - for my parents
. ... and finally for me!
Have you always had a dream car?
. a car that you’ve dreamed about as a kid and always wanted?
. a car that you swore that someday you would own?
Well, Caterham was the Dream car that Damien dreamt over and swore to have, one day.
… and that’s exactly what he has right now.
But this video isn’t about Damien’s Caterham.
It’s more about his Passion for:
. his family
. his parents
… and 7!
You see, Damien did finally purchase a Caterham but his Caterham came into the family after he created his childhood dream car for his kids, … and even after his parents purchased their Caterham.
… Amazing Story!
