the problem was the put the funniest one on first......they had a hell of a benchmark set after that......

The mincer was cool, made me chuckle.....the Avantine was a good example of someone not knowing where to start.....

Huge brakes need huge wheels, but you lose 0-60 if the wheels are too big, no one had taken the time to establish what the condition of the engine was like and it all went a little to pot after that....

I like the Renault, very different thinking

Would be nice if the Renault racing team offered to spend a day finishing it off.

I thought the show was the mutts nuts as usual. Captain Slow getting lessons on how to drive a car fast by Mikka Hakkinen was superb - JC will have to rename him Captain Quick now!! ;D As for the LS7 V8 blender......PMSL  ;D ;D only Clarkson is mad enough to think up something so barmy, but hilarious!

Would be good if he converts it into an LS7 battery power pack with attachments.
