Last night's top gear out of the blue had a black 08 victory edition chasing a ford fiesta in a Shopping centre! The Vette was taking some abuse from driving into things, Looking by the reg it looked like a GM press car? Unless somebody now owns it?

Nigel is right. It's the GM press car on long term loan to Top Gear magazine. It's an 08 Victory Edition.....

As posted ages ago by me on the Top Gear Magazine thread.

Geesh, Guru, I would have thought you would have time to read every new post on here... wink
Nice write up in this month's mag too.

The other day I walked through where the car chase was filmed and saw thick black skidmarks on the marble floor. Nearby was one of these blue cherry picker thingy's. As I carried on walking I kept looking back at the skidmarks and then the cherry picker - then shaking my head. biggrin

It was parked outside my girlfriend's house a few weeks ago - her neighbour works for the mag so presumably they've borrowed it smile
