Top Gear Ascari KZ1 Review

January 24, 2011

This car is simply staggering. Ascari make beautiful cars. The KZ1 is a prime example of that. Granted you’d need to be quite well off to be an owner (in excess of £235,000), however you get to race it on a track that’s exclusive to Ascari. Want one? Yes please. Enjoy the Top Gear video.

Top Gear Reviews The Westfield XTR

December 14, 2010

Clarkson immediately suggests it is awful. Normally I might add ‘need I say more’? But that’s a rather trite response to this particular car. Owners are well aware that it’s not for taking to the supermarket run, or for ferrying your kids to school and back. They do know it’s for track days and even [...]
