That was my favorite bit 👍TVR&Ferrari_Fan
BTW, What was so ''British'' about the Ascari?? If i remember correctly its built here right? But that makes no difference on how fast it goes! It could have been built in Egypt and still would have been as fast! Thats not a British car and i wouldnt call it a super car either even though it proved to be quite fast.

The fact that it's built in Britain by a British company makes it British. They never said where it was built had anything to do with how fast it would go, only that they'd been waiting for a British car to get in the top ranks of the power lap board.

True, but imo its not a British car which set that time so i wont acknowledge it as a British car in the top ranks. Thats my opinion though, yours may differ...

Exactley and if your going to split hairs that not all the parts are built in Britain then you can pretty much count any British car out of being British and the same goes for many other manufacturers. It's like saying Noble is African.

If Britain played a bigger part in the car other than constructing it then maybe i would agree with you guys.. but i just dont think its British. It doesnt even look British.
Like i said, thats my opinion, i maybe wrong...
EDIT:
I think you guys are taking this too seriously. I didnt say i was right, its just my opinion.

Ian Wright to be on this Sunday's Top Gear, as this week's Star in a Reasonably Priced Car.
Other Highlights
Jeremy finds out what is faster, a rock climber or the new Audi RS4?
Not to be outdone, Richard and James buy a pair of scruffy old barges and have them converted to be driven by a radio controller. To their horror they discover they are pitted in a contest against a remote-control racing champion, who's also a 13-year-old girl.
Meanwhile, the dazzling Porsche Cayman is put through its its paces folks.

This weeks episode was v-good indeed, I love the look of the RS4 and i would easily buy it over the BMW M5. Yes that Cayman is a foul looking car but it looked good when driven, but im definatly not keen on it at all. i would give this week a 4/5.

I found this episode a bit lacking in actual car footage.
Good verdict on the Audi however I cant wait for it to be tested against the upcoming new M3. I think BMW will have to up the power of their V8 to atleast 430hp to keep up with the current trend of the german horsepower war.
