I wonder if we'll see Sabine as co-presenter sometime?

I'd rather hoped they'd try the Stig out in the Transit too... unless of course Sabine IS/will be the Stig...

Loved the idea of those Porker owners (and bikers) being overtaken by a van - driven by a girl

I'd love to be 'a member of the general public in a reasonably priced car'

After all 'cheap' IS my middle name

Eh? I thought it was "Hotride" by The Prodigy. Or was there a bit of music before it that I missed?

Judas here

You may be right, but the Underworld track was in the programme at some point - which is close enough for me

One of the tracks tonight was Boards of Canada - from the Geogaddi album but can't remember the track name.

I've been wondering about a song as well.

On the 5th Gear episode of the 9th of May, VBH drove a Superformance Shelby Le Mans Coupe. They played a song all thoughout the feature. I've been trying to find it for ages. Can anybody help me with the title and artist?

Cheers!

No it isn't. The advert is just shorter and uses two cuts from different parts of the track spliced together

The BMW advert is from the same album, but the track is called "You will be under my wheels"

Both tracks are from the album "Always outnumbered, Never outgunned"

Whilst we're all asking 'what's the song' questions, here's my own:

On the last episode of Top Gear (the one with the SLR v. boats race) they kept playing bits of a track right throughout the 'race' segment. Most notable part was when Jeremy was driving the SLR over a big fancy-looking bridge somewhere, with panoramic camera angles of the car wizzing by.

The track is instrumental rather than vocal (the bits played, at least) and sounds a bit sort of Mike Oldfield-ish. Just wondered if anyone knew what that track was, as I luuuuuuurved it?!

Cheers,

Adam
