... Just about enough time to google my total ignorance about cars half a millimeter off the ground! I only recognized the Marina because of the piano on top...(Steve said it was a Marina which helped)

hmmm a tasty little collection of Italian exotica.
Especially the 037 and Stratos.
1. Clarkson - Marina Hammond the Lancia
2. Marina I suspect they will drop it roof first onto the piano. Lancia dunno.

.... Thanks for the hint... an Italian car I should have known !
According to Clarkson no one knows if the Lancia Beta was the worst car ever made because it never lasted long enough for anyone to find out... I think he’s finally found a Lancia Beta in one piece and we’re going to find out.
Anyway my guess is:
1. Morris Marina - May (he won the snow race so this is payback time!)
2. Lancia - Clarkson (he’s finally found one in one piece... )
I suspect that Hammond will be in the Careless Airways whirlybird with the kettle drums on the principle that the scenario could do with a rhythm section.....
Yep! I wasted Sunday morning catching up with TG on YouTube instead of doing something usefull! Now I'm going to have make up for it.... 8)

Isn't this done yet? [I honestly don't know as I'd rather eat my own eyes than watch Jeremy Clarkson

].
I've got a grand billion competion planned and it would be nice to clear the decks first.

I've not entered so I have no interest (other than having a forum loose end tied up) but do we have an answer & winner yet?
