    It was on at 8pm, in case anyone missed it.

    I thought it was quite good. No silly races or challenges, just a decent
    feature on the new Atom, an item on a car that people might actually
    buy, and a Beetle being treated as God clearly intended.

    Thumbs up.

    The BMW was much quicker than I'd previously realised - and John Bishop
    was a bit of a surprise, too.

    *And* it had egregious stereotyping of Scousers, so it's all good.

  7. A we talking about a race between a car and a bike here?

    This means monochrome is ginger coloured these days I suppose.

    Is this the £120,000 for a bit of open space frame Atom? which is somewhat
    outside of what "people might actually buy", most of, as a track day toy.

    Is the Beemer going to be raced at the IoM this year?

    Ste Brogan was asked to take his race bike, top gear wouldnt let him use it
    after they saw how fast it was, so they made him do it on a roadbike.

    The Atom V8 is nearly as fast as a full on race car shirly? and they are
    faster round a full track than bikes
