Did a search but found no mention of a owner.

Does anyone on here own it? The one that piled round the track against the mini?

Good question........ I wonder where it is and who owns it now....

The same car fifth gear used as well?

yeah saw it last night on tv clarkson looked quite shocked at what the vrs was capable of.

I may be wrong but I understand that it has a female owner, if it is the same press car that Auto Express etc had. I'll do a search...

Well, the plate is GD04 BYN - this is from the Top Gear footage anyway.

Bet someone has put a private plate on it now :confused:

it's not mine, although mine was a press car in it's early days. I have a DVD somewhere of it being spanked round Anglessey by a bunch of journo's

I like to think of at a Race Pedigree

?? That was the fifth gear one I was on about: GN03 KLC ??

My sources tell me it isn't insured on the road as GD04 BYN at the moment so either it's SORNed, written off or has a private plate now .

Well youre all wrong! Its GD04 BYH, the guy was a member on here as I parked next to it early this year!

Its pretty low!

Could well be a H now I've seen the footage back again. Looks like some coilies have gone on it since Jezza's been in the driving seat.

Errrrrrr................. nope!!! My original plate was GN03 KLJ. Close but no cigar

Do we know if the Top Gear car was "standard" because I've read in the past the press cars were played with?.

I hope it was standard, as it didn't really gain much on the straights. A remapped one would have really pulled away hard.

Despite the Hammond "I'm giving it all I've got" - rollox! You let it past, I can tell by your knee position you were off the gas a bit!

What DVD is that from? Is it available to buy in shops?

Wicked.. just checked back after starting this thread.

Thought I was gunna get "it's been done, use the search".. but seems it's not been asked before.

Thanks for all the replies!

Was??? Where is he now? Where is IT now?

Does this count as the most famous Fabia?

I'd say the most famous fabia is Jasons. Noone will remember the top gear fabia apart from us saddos People who have seen jasons on youtube and in real life will certainly remember

Wasn't the Auto Express one GN54 CYL??
