I suspect they will bring out all the old 'jokes'. The Russian car, Interior smells like a glue factory... etc.

What makes me laugh when they have these challanges is how cheap they get them compared to everyone else. I suspect the TVR only cost them £200.

Is the yellow one an old Elan?

Does your mate not know to get pictures of the CARS not the wallies in them???

I did specifically ask them not to drop one on it!

£200???? Cost them significantly more than that!

Bizarrely I've often thought the opposite. Their 1500 quid Porsches (928 excepted) and 1500 quid coupes were all proper stters compared to what you can get for that money if you buy sensibly.

my mate spotted them in lytham st annes on the promenade. had some garden furniture on the roofs of their cars apparently
