GAME OF THE MONTH
BOV • Is it time to rethink our speed camera policy, asks Jethro
PINKS • How important is age in F1? Natalie asks if it matters at all
The 400 club • Four TG icons that each define 100 issues of the magazine, embark on four 100 mile roadtrips to all four corners of the UK… ready for a drive down memory lane?
START YOUR ENGINES • TG magazine first fired up in October 1993… standout car from the opening 100 issues? Has to be the one Clarkson said was “like a quail’s egg dipped in celery salt and served in Julia Roberts’ belly button”
BLACK DOVE • The rorty CLK 63 Black harks to a more innocent time, hen ignorance really was bliss. Can it take us back there?
FIESTA FOREVER • In a world of Goliaths, the Fiesta ST was the David we all needed… time to revisit one of the all-time hot hatch greats
ONE MORE FOR THE ROAD • The Porsche 911 has long straddled the gap between the old world and the new by (mostly) keeping it simple. A few more miles won’t hurt, will they?
STELVIO • Happy 200th birthday to an Alpine icon, but what do you get the Swiss mountain pass that has everything? Hans-Joachim Stuck in his dad’s Audi, perhaps
WAR HORSE • Ford’s Mustang GTD is made for destroying lap times (and tyres) and has the 911 GT3 RS firmly in its crosshairs. Can it handle both road and track?
FAST COMPANY • Three bosses, the TopGear track, and the chance to sample each other’s wares. Who’s feeling brave?
BACK TO THE FUTURE • The Lamborghini Diablo has been improved for the modern age… better drive the original too, just to be sure
HEADLINER THEORY OF EVOLUTION • We first got wind of of it a year ago, now we've been let loose in it. This is HWA's V6 engined tribute to the Mercedes-Benz 190E Evo II
