Very interesting although I think I would rather have the
upcoming Audi RS3 8) which should cost you about the
same amount of money.
It was a joy to read, as is the case with anything written
by Jeremy Clarkson.

As I wrote earlier:
Clarkie's columns are a must read for me each week again.
This week is no exception.
One thing struck me in his column though. Near the end he writes:
qte...
The car I drove belonged to a 22-year-old
...unqte
So now Clarkie asks private owners to come forward when he wants to review 'special' cars which manufacturers are refusing to lend to him and his team for a review :shock:

Well, that's not so rare  and even evo often uses privateer cars  especially when it's about tuned ones or super rare  so it doesn't really sound so strange. Especially consdiering there are for sure not many complete Autodelta 147 around and not sure there in an official press car around in the UK

THis was the case with the Ferrari issue where all four cars were borrowed from friends of the magazine, or private (independent) dealers

Yes and for instance Lichfield motorsport (for sure spelled wrong but to lazy to check, you get the idea anyway  ) always supplies lot of cars to them  (also the Type 25 Impreza in the last issue I think)
edit - maybe Lichfrield import? LOL
