She was a bit sharp around Top Gear's test track. If she wasn't such a skinny bint, I would.

Ok, I would anyway.

Went to see the cars this afternoon, some nice stuff there but it was packed. Got some pics, but didn't see any SLRs

Apparantly the start was delayed by half an hour for the police to clear the road

Knoxvilles car began life at one of my customers

That car is owned by ESmotorsport in Stoke Poges, its a specially tuned 550LM

Spec is as follows:

5.5l 48v
600bhp

over 600lb/ft
Carbon air intakes and engine cover
AP racing 16" brakes
Carbon wing
Carbon rear diffuser
Carbon LM bodykit
Carbon interior
Lightweight carbon buckets
Lightweight steering wheel with F1 style shift lights
Upgraded brakes lines, pipes and ducting
19" OZ Multispokes
Michelin F1 grade tyres

Its been for sale on their forecourt for the past 6 months or so, was i think £190k or thereabouts.

Original colour was Miami red which in some lights almost looked pink :cry:

Was repainted a week or so ago so guessed it was for something like Gumball

Said car with its racing stablemate



Pauls prolly seen it before

What car would you do the Gumball in if you had to choose from any car?
