Good read that. Some of the comments were quite strong.  :laugh:

I can't help feeling that Chris Harris (EVO writer) may have burnt his prancing horse bridges.

TBH I'm not surprised by Ferrari's antics. I wonder what kind of deal they have with Top Gear.  :laugh:

The GTI isn't just a machine. It's very much a living, breathing thing.

My mate used to work for Honda in the department that prepared press cars.

Basically blueprinted engines and extra soundproofing so the road testers loved them. If you have ever been in an Accord Type-R you will understand why.  :wink:

they do go over the top, my dad had to sign countless documents saying he would not sell his 458 spyder on when he gets it, they also took satellite pictures of his house to see what other cars he owns  :stupid:

I'm guessing the sarcasm in my question was undetectable then? I reckon it'd be cheaper them to send a man round his house to peek through the fence than to rent a satellite off the CIA for the weekend, don't you?
