Hammerhead I-eagle thrust!!!!?? Wonder if someone has bought it to re-use the TVR chassis in a TVR :p

That numberplate is still registered as "TVR TV CHIMAERA 2DR"

Was just writing a post along the same lines. Also, how can Geoff have kept the same registration as the TVR?

Allegedly, all vehicles use on Top Gear are crushed.

The Hammerhead Eagle I Thrust or whatever is a real shed. It's a pity that they used the IVA loophole by not changing the chassis because it's not really roadworthy.

Some of the Top Gear left overs are at http://www.beaulieu.co.uk/attractions/world-of-top-gear.

Nope, they're at Beaulieu

that were drowned/cut in half/fired into space by Jeremy, James and Richard in the good name of Top Gear?

Since not even the dodgiest used car dealers would buy them, we’ve collected all the battered, modified and generally
ruined cars from the world’s biggest car show and gathered them together in… the Top Gear Enormodrome!
