Top Gear builds, launches Space Shuttle car - Engadget

As if the folks at Top Gear didn't already have the best job in the world, they recently went and completely outdid themselves, building their own Space Shuttle out of a Reliant Robin, roughly the British equivalent of a Pinto or a Gremlin (minus a wheel). As you can see, it all came together quite nicely, complete with an external fuel tank, solid rocket boosters, and a spot-on paint job
Wow. I love Top Gear. |

Agreed. I wish we could purchase old seasons on DVD. Just have to suffice with Google video. Favorites: The Bugatti Veyron episode where they raced a plane vs. a car across Europe. The Pagoni Zonda test drive. The jet car crash. Replacing clays with cars for target practice (that episode was insane.) And the Ariel Atom test drive, watching Jeremy wig out in an open air car was priceless. |
