Ah, Dave Clark 5. Now there was a group. Surprised he's allowed to drive still. He must be my age...

Someone told me Damon Hill had a big moment testing a Aston Martin Vanquish. Surely enough on last nights Top Gear Stig spins a Vanquish @ 140mph

Qed as they used to say in trignometry lessons

I have worked with the Stig, and he 'aint French. He has a french accent, until he can't be bothered to keep it up, or there's a real frenchman around. Also, who said there was only one Stig...

(BTW I don't know who it/they are, but one of them may have the same first name as me)

Is this the third definite Stig we've had? I seem to remember it's definetly Julian Bailey and Nicolas Mannison(sp).

One of the guys I work with does loads of photography for Motorshows / events and knows quite a few people in the industry. He's been reliably informed it's Alain Menu.
