And you know what...................He was so right !!!!!
Have still got the original Top Gear programme recorded but feel they didn't do the car justice, putting it up against 2 young climbers ??, and why they didn't show us the Stig driving it on a timed on track lap, i'll never understand.
Never mind, all us owners know we've got a very special car in our possession and I for one, am going to keep it on the road for as long as possible, and don't even want to contemplate what i'm going to replace it with, want to keep her on the road no matter how much i'm going to have to spend

I have that clip permanently recorded onto my PVR and watch it from time to time.

However, when he made the quote about best engine ever, I suspect they didnt know much about the carbon problem then!

I've had mine from new in July 2006, and still love every second I spend driving it - something no previous car has even come close to making me say.

Perhaps you should re-watch it again - he actually says hes sitting FOUR feet from the engine!

Just watched it and forgot about the race with the climbers.....Epic footage of a great car and also those guys climbing that cliff face were super human

Are you as tall as JC ?

And if you want to split hairs, your post should read " Perhaps you should re watch it" or "Perhaps you should watch it again" and it's he's not hes

agree on all the above.

JC never had a negative thing to say about the car during the whole film.... must be a record !
