Chim on New Top Gear

[Tyre Tread]

I've just seen a trailer for the upcoming series of Top Gear with Flintoff earing a wet suit while sitting on a Chim between a yellow Ferrari and a red car I couldn't see enough of to identify.

The Chim reg is something like C7 ?RO but you only get a glimpse.

Anyone know what they are up to and where and when it was filmed?

When is this on? I'd like to record it so that I can watch the TVR bits whilst fast forwarding the rest

They haven't released transmission dates yet, just a "coming soon" teaser.

I hope its not a "Go and buy a V8 sportscar for under 8K...." and that they bought rough ones as then every man and his dog will want to buy the best of them for £8k (or whatever).

That's a 355 isn't it? If you can get them for under £10k I'll have a few

Ooh, wonder if it's a Mr2 with a kit.

its a fake

I can just about tolerate Flintoff and Harris is OK but Paddy is almost as bad as Chris Evans for being "Look at me, I can shout!"

Nice to see that some more promo video came out today 🙂
She looks like she held her own and Freddie seems like he's having fun

Well at least they didn't rubbish it as was expected.
