Look who I met the other day...
Yup - i bumped into Stig at the Top Gear Stand at the British Motoshow.
Needless to say... conversation extended to nodding and shaking of his head.

Well - the show is over 200 miles from me. But if a JWer in London went to the show (it's on until Sunday) and got him to sign them, that would have been cool.
But i'm not too sure that he was doing autographs, as Some say... the Stig cannot read or write. However, he knows how to drive - and fast!

It was the model right? That exact frame was there when I was there but it never moved! Although I know there was someone walking about at some points but I seriously doubt it was the real Stig! Wrong shape.
.. ahh just seen the other topic!

This was a real person underneath - obviously not the real Stig - but he was just walking about so i thought i'd take his picture

Definitely - it's just a funny PR exercise. 
@ Pimp Racer - the guy was about my height, so 6 feet tall. :bah:
