Ford has won two BBC Top Gear awards this year for two extraordinary cars. The first, the Ford Fiesta ECOnetic, is Ford’s lowest CO2 emitting model, producing only 98g/km, snapping up the “Green Car of the Year” Award. Of course, that’s not the only reason that it took the prize. It’s a nimble, attractive piece […]
Jools Holland is one of the celebs who has taken part in the Fastest Lap Times competition on Top Gear, in a Suzuki Liana. On a recent visit to the National Motor Museum, Beaulieu, Holland cheekily snatched his lap time to gain a more favourable position over the other celebs! See the famous Lap Times […]
There’s no doubt that this is one of the best Top Gear reviews ever. The Ariel Atom is simply a fantastic car (one which I should be driving on my next track day) and Clarkson is clearly enjoying the ride.
From the second most recent series of Top Gear, here’s the classic review of the new Ford Fiesta by Jeremy Clarkson. It’s bizzare but no doubt brought a smile to everyone’s face when they first saw it – there’s nothing like a couple of cars tearing around a mall/shopping centre on a Sunday evening to […]
Here, James May is driving one of my favourite cars of all time. It’s the Pagani Zonda F. Whilst the Veyron may have mullered it in a straight line, the Zonda demonstrates the advantage of having a lightweight car around a track – managing an ultimately faster time. Laugh whilst May spins the car, but […]
Racing legend Mika Hakkinen teaches Captain Slow to drive. Naturally, he shows off exactly what Finnish car control is, whilst James May actually does manage to come up good when he does a bit of racing. Well, better than he normally does anyway…

I was actually going to post the article about the British GT that I attended at Knockhill. Instead, I’ve decided to have a quick look at the first episode of the new series of Top Gear that was shown on BBC2 tonight – not least because I’m sure that if you’re here then you probably […]
If you’re reading this blog then you probably have watched Top Gear before, even if you’re not an avid watcher like me. You may well then be happy to know that the series, after a nice break, has returned back to our televisions tonight to appear on BBC 2 at 8PM. Get it bookmarked/Sky +’ed […]
Apparently, Top Gear has been one of the most successful long running television programmes for a long time now. That isn’t just because it is loved by car nuts like myself, but it’s also top quality entertainment. Even if you don’t necessarily want to hear about ‘trick diffs’ on the latest Evo, you’re sure to […]
