Top Gear - again...!!

Best television viewing in a few months - Top Gear last night....a race between a Bugatti Veyron and a Cessna 182 from Turin to London....Clarkson in the Bugatti (of course) and James May (piloting) in the Cessna with the ever impatient Hamster in the seat behind...

Just great viewing...Clarkson's constant refrain that he would not be beaten by a 'washing machine' was just classic, along with his references to the Wright Brothers being constantly behind him in the race...

Unfortunately May does not have his night rating yet, so as night falls over Northern France, they have to ditch the plane in Lille and catch the train..

At a cool 850,000 pounds sterling...the Bugatti is not a car to be trifled with (apparently 5 were sold at the Dubai Motor Show), however, it is still a car that I wouldn't mind getting behind the wheel of!!!
