The other thread suggests it may be a press car! Anyone know what he actually has in his fleet? I know he's got 599, used to have a 360 and a masser 3200 i think.

If it is product placement....... he has a nerve!

I hope one of his lambs gets slaughtered!!!!

(he was driving it a bit funny don't you think, or was it because he was talking to the camera?)

Wasn't he in Fife? If so then he is unlikely to have driven from London in his own car which suggests it was either "placed" or hired.

I think he has a Q7 Audi....but then he was driving that when they were just being launched wink

He lives very close to a pal of mine, so I'll keep my eyes peeled when I'm up that way.

Hi there,

Pretty sure that this car is a press/demo car, I think when I saw it on the F Word tonight it had Italian plates on it. If that is the case then I think it is the same car that was on the London to Silverstone Supercar run last month. This was Italian registered but Right Hand Drive: -





Regards

Tim

he used to drive a 456 i think. it was involved in a court case after some woman vandalised it in a drunken rage.

ive not been overly impressed by his restaurants on the few occasions ive been lucky enough to go to them (except for Aubergine back at the beginning which was pretty much perfection) but i think hes a decent bloke having met him briefly

Audi have a deal with the series producers to place their products on the Ramsey shows.

Remember in the 'Hells Kitchen' series he was always in some sort of Audi whenever he went to visit the restaurants he was trying to save.

I interviewed the girl that works in the VIP Team for Audi recently, so got the full lowdown.

I think he owns a RR Sport cos it was in the last series and this one.

He is a lucky sod though, still he works hard so probably deserves it.

Wasn't this G Spider used in a magazine report? I think it was either Evo or Top Gear. They drove it around Scotland/Isle of Skye.

He has a silver RRS Supercharged, it was parked outside Petrus the other night and he got in it and drove it off.

As said above, Audi has a deal to product place their cars on his shows.
