I saw that this morning and while it is a short teaser of what's to come, at least our collective anxiety of what will come after Binky has been addressed. I am looking forward to seeing more of the Peugeot rally car from the opening sequence. I also would like to see more videos of Nik driving rally style. Dude's got skills outside of making brackets, negative jig-thingys and over engineered blower housings.
What's Nik's muttering at the end?
"None's really interested in a rear wheel drive something classic Ford something"?
In reply to wheelsmithy :
I heard "six litre" in there.
My assumption is Jaguar engine. Possibly BMW.
That MG thing looks like it might be a daunting task.
In reply to Streetwiseguy :
Depends how original they want to go. It sounds like they are just looking to get a hold of some very chassis specific items then they're going to fabricate to fit the rest.
Still daunting however. OTOH they're 4 years into Binky now.
Didn't Top Gear test one of them when they were new?
In reply to The0retical :
Daunting like, 'It costs HOW MUCH to make a windshield for this thing?!?!!?"
In reply to EastCoastMojo :
You just want more Rex Hamilton. Admit it.
In reply to Streetwiseguy :
I guess they did say it needs glass....
That would be a non starter for me.

When rover went down I remember the finished cars selling for pennies in classic and sports car ads. There was always one for sale with no miles at all and a ton of spares which is what it looks like they have there.
They started the video with one of my favorite British idioms "vinegar strokes" which endeared them to me even more
And then it just dawned on me that Binky was named after one of the characters from Terry Pratchet's discworld series which was a nice throwback to reading a ton of those books when I was a cook at a fish'n'chips shop in the mid 90's.
