I intentionally put some spaces in the below url and ub code so you can see what it should look like.

[YOUTUBE] http://www.you -tube.com/ watch?v= aFdBcYN3sNw[/YOUTUBE]

On the Youtube page, if the url has you.be, you leave that part(s) off. That .be is for mobile devices or some crap--I forget which.

I was cracking up watching that. I love Top Gear.

I'm thinking some of us Super-sized Americans would have a hard time fitting in it. OTOH, we seem to fit very well on the scooters a Walmart.

You have not seen those scooters from the back, have you?

Now that is a scary sight, you know those Mart Carts do have weight limits posted right on them.

I find certain parts of this thread incredibly ironic, including the title.

DONT say "England" and "Cars" in the same sentace, unless (and highly recomended) the 3rd words are either "shoot it" or "blow it up"



<edit>

And never-ever-ever, under any circumstances (well, onless you want to see a grown man in the fetal position crying and sucking his thumb) say the words "Lucas Electrics"

I have a British Leyland behind the house. Something is wrong with the synchromesh transmission, but I may get around to reassembling it someday.

I actually have that 45. What's really cool is that on the B side, the label is a a reverse image of the A label.

From Wikipedia:

Continuing the theme of insanity, the flip or B-side of the single was simply the A-side played in reverse, and given the title "!aaaH-aH ,yawA eM ekaT oT gnimoC er'yehT" (or "!AAAH-AH ،YAWA ƎM ƎʞAT OT ʚИIMOƆ ƎЯ'YƎHT") and the performer billed as "VIX ИOƎ⅃OꟼAИ". Most of the label affixed to the B-side was a mirror image of the front label (as opposed to simply being spelled backward), including the letters in the "WB" shield logo. Only the label name, disclaimer, and record and recording master numbers were kept frontward.

In his Book of Rock Lists, rock music critic Dave Marsh calls "!aaaH-aH ,yawA eM ekaT oT gnimoC er'yehT" the "most obnoxious song ever to appear in a jukebox", saying the recording once "cleared out a diner of forty patrons in three minutes flat."

Yeah, the Brits really suck at the car thing

They don't call Joseph Lucas the Prince of Darkness for no good reason.

I had an MG Midget once. That was enough.

Didn't Lotuses ( Loti? ) come from the factory with a net to catch parts as they fell off?

Yes, and they put them into Fiero suspensions....hence the suspension designed by Lotus of the 88's

But to keep from paying Lotus GM designed the Fiero to catch fire?

Like they have the market on unique vehicles...
