I think this months Sprint is the best I have read, not just because there were lots of S articles, there were some great quotes by Derek!

In the article about the Top Gear DVD shoot, where the S was represented by MrSheen, he talks of the TVR cars and says

"The paintwork gleamed on all of them and Andy Hills SV8 seemed cleaner under the bonnet than the cleanest thing you could think of after being cleaned by those two odd women on the TV who go round cleaning hings. An engine bay lacking in oil stains shows a sick mind...!"

Classic, he has a point there though.....?

When describing the sound of the McLaren Merc SLR blasting around the track he says

"It sounded great, rather like, according to Andy Hills, the pod racers from Star Wars Phantom Menace (Go polish your engine)"

Classic, I do look forward to seeign the DVD though although I am told the S doesnt get the coverage it deserved!

Later

Blinding edition of Sprint - have to agree.

Glad Andy has a good sense of humour - I know he has a cleaning fetish, but let's face it we'd all like our cars to look that good, so long as we didn't have to do the work! Thought he didn't deserve every dig in the article - poor chap
