Keep in mind topgear is as much about satire and witt as it is about reviews. | |

It had to be for sure!... I watched that video and noticed its 3 minutes from where I live... the guy in the Z3 went into a deserted area where there was no way out... that area must be looked for because it's tucked away. If he was REALLY trying to get away he would not have followed a dirt road when there is a 2 lane main road right there.

The owner of the store actually seemed concerned for them, and then when she noticed they were basically mocking her city she became offended. Of course the video doesn't really show that, but it's more likely what happened. | |
