    Jonny - the Stig used to be Perry McCarthy, an Ex-F1 driver (if you can call failing to qualify for a couple of races in the early 90s an F1 driver). But the story goes he totalled a car > 100k and so was given the boot for the new stig.

    Interesting amount of BHP off a couple of diesels though.

    Shame about the acceleration of the damn thing.

    And I want those buggys!!!!

    Thats what I heard - didn't mention the name to kind of "keep the mystery" but it appears everyone already knows.... ah well.

    Shame it's the end of the series now (last one next week), might have had some more F1 drivers on now there's no races till sept.

    (do you think they'd do an "I am the stig" t-shirt in pink for me?! he he)
    Kittens were when he was explaining the turbos in the BMW

    Didn't realise next week was the last
