Not yet, this review is from the special Clarkson and May did called "The Worst Car In the History of the World." Top Gear UK is scheduled to be back in January.

Edit: if you were asking if the special was out for download, it is. I tried posting it last night but it was taken down since its against forum rules to post links to torrents. PM me if you want the site I got it from, but it does require you to sign up for a free membership, but this site is gold for anyone that likes watching motorsports.

"That would be legal on residential roads......... probably....." I think I might blame it on Clarkson if I get pulled over doing that lol....... just kidding btw I would never do such a thing on residential roads.

I was actually just saying that so nobody would rag on me... tends to be quite a few Debbie Downers on here when it comes to that on res streets even if you're being responsible about it. In fact I do this with my G5 (heavy ebrake) at low speeds in snow while I wait for my FR-S .
