Jeremy takes on American cars. Everything from a Z06 to a Roush Mustang and a '94 Buick Park Avenue. His ascerbic humor keeps me in stitches, no matter how much he bad mouths the U.S.

The video is 1 hour and 20 mins. so if you have some time to kill I highly recommend it. His comments about the big red Viper are classic, "It really is a mother of violence, this. A big, red, V-10 axe murderer."

"Just the base" to improve on.

Why not tell us how the lotus (used to compare to the Roush) is on normal roads?
Edit: Ohh and old Stig is a former F1 driver why not find a better match.

Wasn't it the new Stig (white) that featured in this film? The new Stig character is played by more than one person, depending on task. At least that's the grapevine.
