Top Gear's Stig, Ben Collins, Gets Court Approval For Autobiography

The drama has been unfolding involving Top Gear's infamous The Stig.  Now that it's been revealed it was famed racecar driver Ben Collins, BBC (producers of Top Gear) has been chasing after Collins and his publishing company, HarperCollins to do their best in halting the actual publishing of Ben's autobiography.  Now it looks like the court has ruled in HarperCollins' favor, stating that BBC cannot stop the publishing of the book.

We personally don't see what the big deal is now that the identity of The Stig has been ousted.  Top Gear already has a new man in mystery behind the wheel, and we strongly doubt much of their viewership has dropped off.  If anything, this press has probably turned some new viewers to Top Gear to see what all the hype is about behind The Stig.

Top Gear Tests Bentley Continental Supersports

Having had the luxury to experience Bentley's Continental Supersports myself, I have to say the vehicle is an entirely different experience than one would expect from a luxury vehicle manufacturer.  Sure the Continental is naturally powerful, but the Supersports is a truly exhilarating experience.  Performance you'd expect out of a Porsche with all the luxury from a Bentley.  Make sure you check out the video of Top Gear putting it to the test.

Bugatti Veyron F1

The world's most expensive Bugatti Veyron, complete with F1 number plate, will be a star attraction at this year's MPH Show featuring Top Gear Live at London's Earls Court between 5-8 November.

If ever the phrase ‘if you need to ask the price, you can't afford it' was appropriate it's now.  But at the right price the car could be up for sale, according to owner Afzal Kahn.

He's hoping his soft white 253mph supercar could be the perfect choice for newly crowned Formula One champion Jenson Button since it features the most expensive number plate sold in the UK .
