On a slightly different but related subject, did anyone see Top Gear GTI on channel 564 (SKY) yesterday (Monday 18th) as it had Tiff Needel thrashing the MINI Cooper Works Challenge car around Thruxton, he was supposed to be racing against a classic cooper S circuit car with the elderly gentlemen who originally raced them (can't remenber his name) but it dropped a valve so couldn't continue, he was quite impressed with it and at the very end they had the road going Works car.

Just thought i'd let u know as they often repeat them several times, other items featured for identification purposes were:

Towing a Caravan
Citroen C5 estate
Scenic Vs something else etc
