Sabine in the Ford Transit at the Green Hell

[markseven]

I just watched the Top Gear with Sabine in a ford panel van trying to best Clarkson's 9:59 in a Jag XJS (or something). She managed a 10:08, which is awesome... she wasn't wearing a helmet or a driving suite...

This is prolly old, but by one of my fav segments on TG.

Great video, Underworld - Dark and Long at the 1:29 mark.

That was a great episode. 10 minutes in a van! wow.

You just NOW watched it? LOL

Good video though :)

That was great, I hadn't seen it. Thanks!

what does the average E30 do it in? I bet it's more than 10 minutes. I've seen the van video before though, pretty entertaining.

Errr, uh... haven't had anything above basic cable for a long...

Okay! I admit it! I was unaware of the brilliance that is TG. I didn't watch it cause I hated Clarkson's writing in the UK car mags.

I've been DVR'ing the episodes and catching up.

With the average driver, maybe 12-13 minutes.

With Sabine, easily under 10 minutes.

Brakes where gone on the second lap, I bet she could have come closer if they had done the weight savings and drafting bit with a fresh van.
