He was quite good value.

The Brera: pretty but unfortunately useless. If your going to buy an impractical car (and all of those are) you might as well have one that's fun to drive. And that means rear wheel drive. And power.

Again unfortunately I've driven an RX8 around some roads I know quite fast and it was very disappointing. The engine killed it for me. And the terrible, cheap, tacky interior.


I wouldn't have that Brera!!!

I'd have this one! 4 wheel drive 348bhp!!!

Does it come with real suspension too? Watching it go round the track is like watching something from the 70s!

And seriously 4wd is no good for me either. Especially front-biased 4wd like you get on that...

5 secs, erm. But they are using the 2lt JTS so...



I LOVE ALFAS so I don't care!!!!!
 
4WD, 50/50 weight distribution, 30/70 power distribution, mid-engined. ;)

Best. Car. Layout. Possible. :D

That sounds fine. I'd rather have 0/100 until the car detects that I've run out of talent and switches the power to the front wheels...
 
Oh, so you want a Skyline GTR V-SpecII then;)

I've thought about that sort of thing yes. To be honest the MX-5, whilst massively underpowered, is so controllable I'd never want the front wheels driven.

A supercharger and it could be the best car ever!

Fit one then?

I'm considering it. I don't have the £3000 (rough estimate) sitting around with no other purpose right now. Maybe later in the year. That would take me to around 200bhp at the rear wheels so around 210-220 rated in 1100kg car which would be plenty :)
 
The best part was talking about the Bentley and Clarkson had a jibe at the northerners. He-larry-ous
 
I seem to be enjoying this series more than last years, watching "Captain Slow" break 250 mph was actually exciting :eek: (kept thinking he would run out of road). What I would give to just drive a Veyron let alone own one.

Did they let the Stig take the Bugatti around the track? And just answer yes or no, if they did, I don't want anyone to spoil it with lap times and whatnot :p

I'm hardly getting any seeds on the damn torrent.
 
No, Bugatti would not let them (Him The Stig)

Damn....you'd think they would want their car to take the fastest lap time on the worlds most watched car show....


Although I think the Koenigsegg CCX (currently the fastest I think?) would put up a fight. It is 200hp less than the Veyron, but it also weighs like 2,000 lbs less.....
