Another great episode. They left just enough time in the middle for me to do the washing up too. Also reminded me that I would like a Sagaris lots.

I nearly cried when they blew that Gsi up.
I seriously doubt they blew the actual gsi up. Did anyone else notice that as the stig got in "James'" car, it had a different reg?

Can't believe there are still plugs and molds just sitting about there. Remember someone went there and took some pics a few years back and there were bodyshells lying about unloved

Anything remotely car shaped. It's a produced TV show, they will have borrowed the cars and stuck to and script.

A mk 3 astra in the same colour? It was quite far away when it blew up, probably so you couldn't tell it wasn't the gsi. Not that i'm a conspiracy theorist Hopefully they blew the Venoms up though, they might as well do the world a favour while they're at it.

Next someone will be coming out with thinking the stig was actually in that ax when it went under the lorry

Makes me mad really, all those cars on those airfields, as said, are perfectly driveable (because they had to be to get to the showroom to swap am I correct in saying?) yet they are sitting there rotting away.
They cant resell them, but cant they remove all the bits that are still good and sell them back cheap as spares to people looking to keep an older car on the road?

Mk3 Astra GSi is probably the worst hot hatch ever, there proper shit to drive! Plus there only 1500 quid for a shitter, pennies to the BBC.

I loved the few subtle pops they had at the pakis in Birmingham tbh, I would be expecting a few letters of complaint there
end bit was great when they had the old british sports cars in the TVR factory

but in the real world the indicators and wipers on the wheel work really well,
if you have the wheel upside down you will already be turning so should already be indiacting
oh and the light switch is on the dash, like a corsa, its the full/flash beam thats on the wheel
