Look to Japan when it’s time, most of them ended up there.

A heavily reworked Qvale Mangusta. MG Rover’s attempt to take on TVR. The headlights are from the Fiat Punto and the engine is a Ford V8.

Just makes me wonder, does that dealership really need hold such a large inventory on site? Excuse me whilst I use this story share a somewhat relegated story of my own.

I looked that plate up on the DVLA website that allows to check if it has valid Road Tax (Misnomer it’s really called Vehicle Excise Duty). And it’s showing as just untaxed not even SORN (a declaration that it’s not in use). It’s also coming back as having no MOT (Certificate of being road worthy), all cars are exempt…

I had a look at the BaT listing that showed all the documents related to vehicle. Including the V5C that states the registered keeper. I noticed it was intact, it should have had a blue section missing. There are sections that get sent off to the DVLA (UK equivalent of DMV) when a car is sold, junked or exported. The…

Probably.....

No doubt this has already been covered but this probably worked at a small airport. The conversion was probably done by a firm called Carmichael who also did the same thing to Range Rovers.

I watched this yesterday it’s worth checking out not just for the Jeep and Fred but also the scenery which is fabulous.

Also think of the merchandise potential of The Stig. The BBC and their money making counterpart BBC Worldwide wouldn’t walk away from all that easy money.

He’s just wants to cherish any physical interaction with Mr. LeBlanc.

Did I see Seasick Steve (gentleman with a beard) in that?

Maybe when/if GM revisit the Hy-Wire concept they can call it the Bolt On.

Not just supercars that fall victim to this fakery. An everyday example is the Ford Transit Sport (last generation). Ford in their infinite wisdom offered a sport pack for the Transit that consisted of a mild body kit, alloy wheels, racing stripes and a chrome tipped twin exit exhaust. Only it wasn’t even an exhaust…

Folt - As in its your fault I’m trying to come up with _olt names.

I need one.

I see that you’ve reached out to the BBC for comment on this. Have you contacted the people apparently making the comments on Facebook to verify the story?

That’s a Holden Astra not a Vauxhall Astra, ok if you want to be really pedantic it’s an Opel badged as Holden for the Australian market.

Yeah I guess that’s cool. But that guy needs to stop shouting, I get it he’s enthusiastic about the project but the shouting is oh so annoying. And I couldn’t help but think he should have had some sort of mesh basket over the front blades. Not just for safety but to prevent damaging the blades.

“Mercedeses” - That was painful to read.

The Sun is not a newspaper it’s another cog in the Murdoch Machine. It’s sole agenda to manipulate the impressionable to believe whatever lies they’re selling in the hope folks will vote for the flavour of the month political party come general election / Brexit referendum.
