When Alonso won the championship in 2005 the car was rigged to "play" We Are the Champions after it had stopped in parc ferme after the race. Unfortunately the engine went a little haywire and started burning, and Flav had to go turn it off

Nice, much better than Topgear's effort at getting engines to 'sing'

It's not particularly difficult thought! Match the required RPM to the frequency and bob's your uncle

Goodwood Festival Of Speed is one of the best days out that I can think of. For anyone that hasn't been I can't recommend it enough, if you like cars you will love it!!

We were there last year and were a fair way away from the Renault stand when the car started playing God Save The Queen, everyone loved it

Here's a compliation I put together after the 2005 FOS:
