Grazie, as always, great choice. I like the car just by itself, but they did a good job spinning the car.

It gives a whole new meaning to “bubble and squeak” ;-)

That is one awesome ride. (and a great video)

Just over the weekend some friends were talking about the chase scene in Bullit. The sound effects on Top Gear reminded me of that.

I've been waiting for them to release the DVD's in the US. It would be a perfect gift for my gearhead brother.

Agree, Grazie. Great show, lots of visuals to think about. Great car, too.

One of my favorite series on the show (multiple episodes) was when they tried to break an old, used, beat up Toyota pickup.

They dumped it in the ocean, dropped it from a crane, drove it through a house, set it on fire, I can't remember what else.

It still ran.
