and she drives a Ferrari
she cant even handle the lap car.

she is fit though

A 1.44 is a good time so clearly she could handle the car.

Some staged event will happen meaning he will win (they get on the wrong train duh lol).

Surprisingly not

Maybe it's not as staged as I'd assumed.

GTR like driving a big plastic box.

She is not wrong though

She's lovely, shame about the accent though.

Jeremy's face when 50 Shades was playing was absolutely priceless and sums it up perfectly

Amy Macdonald..............wow!

Yeah cos that's the most important thing about a car - and why that car was conceived - a 0-60 beast....

If you're really bothered about it you can slap on one of the numerous turbo kits available which will knock anything between 1-2s off that. IMO it doesn't need it, it felt frisky enough and was great fun to drive even at legal speeds.

Didn't know who the girl was, but she was fun.

Loved that Mustang - wouldn't buy one, but if someone wanted to give on to me, I wouldn't say no!

Quite liked her accent, not to Scottish but just enough to make her sound interesting.
Can't say i've ever seen or heard of her until top gear tonight.

looks naturally fit

Really enjoyed this episode. Shame that the Mustang lost though

50 shades of grey part was pretty funny

Quite

I don't usually pay any attention to the star in a reasonably priced car bit, but I made an exception tonight.

Agreed, not heard anything from her in last couple of years, will google now... as I might've missed things.

EDIT: Missed her latest album, just ordered to complete the set :-)

Quite surprised a lot of you havn't heard of her before.

Her accent annoys me, and I'm scottish.

Classic song IMHO... superb mix of folk and pop... superb.

Yeah really terrible that.. Why do people continue to so miss the point of the gt86?

Normally Clarkson would be the first to bang on about power and speed, He didn't at all.

Fantastic car tbh.

Amy was great.

pugheaven · 10 Feb 2013 at 21:54

Good episode overall and series is panning out well... did love that Shelby, wasn't expecting it to be 600+bhp though... that's rapid... and a lot of car for the money... seriously... shame it['s build out of lego, but still... that engine :-)

Freefaller · 10 Feb 2013 at 21:54

Oh I think I have heard that song before, or at least it seems familiar. However I would never have known it was her.

Her new album is also very good, Pride is my particular favourite:

Amy is hot beyond hot and the Scottish accent is lurrrrvly!

Show was very average tonight.
