Very nice video!

Tiff should return to Top Gear....that`d be awesome!

He`s such a cool and entertaining guy and he`s a extraordinarily good driver!


I can`t stand those 2 monkeys in the Fifth gear Studio..

I am bonkers for that car, I love the fact that you've got a huge engine in small car hence the car in my garage ( SLK with the 5.4L V8 )

That looks like an absolute blast to drive! I love watching Tiff but I pretty much can't stand anyone else on Fifth Gear right now.

I like Tiff and Jason Plato, they are truly great drivers and really go all out with the cars in their tests. The rest is just worthless though. I was so pissed when the 997 GT3 was tested by Vicki...

Is that the color you ordered?

I saw a gorgeous woman driving a frost white DB9 coupe up by Selfridges the other day, it's a fantastic color in person.

I am really liking the V12 - i think it's overpriced at 130k though - i'd rather spend half of that on a used exotic.

Yes, that exact colour with a different interior.
