Stig Lap: Alpine A110S – £60k Supercar Slayer? | Top Gear

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mzOdGKBtUp8

This is the Alpine A110S and it's all the Ss: sharper, stiffer, swifter and stoppier. The Stig isn’t the biggest fan of the standard A110. Too soft and squidgy said the sad slope of his shoulders when, back in 2018, it put in a 1:22.9 lap. Which made it faster than a Toyota Supra, and matched a Ferrari F430. So how much faster is the little Alpine with stiffer suspension, uprated brakes, wider, stickier tyres, a wing and an extra 40bhp? Answer: 0.6 seconds. On a very HOT day, the A110S put in a 1:22.3. Not a massive improvement, but it remains a giant slayer (as quick as a Ferrari 360 Challenge Stradale or Audi R8 V10 Spyder) not to mention any race team would kill for a 0.6sec improvement… Chapters

FIRST LOOK: Praga Bohema – £1.1m, GT-R Engined Lightweight | Top Gear

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XApudSOTLDE

Europe’s supercars are mainly Italian, German, and British… but another nation is in on the action. From the land that brought you Skoda, meet Czechia’s fastest export: the Praga Bohema. It’s not mucking about, is it? The all-carbon fibre two-seater is not a road-going version of Praga’s R1R racing car. Oh no. The R1R makes do a with a willing Renault engine good for 365bhp. The Bohema doesn’t share components with the racer. And courtesy of a Nissan GT-R engine, it’s got 700bhp. The engineers say they’re simply not interested in an irrelevant big top speed number, when all the fun is had getting the Bohema through the corners as quickly as physics allows. Over 900kg of downforce ought to help there. That insectile body is fully carbon fibre and obsessed with channelling air. There’s no active aero though: an airbrake or adjustable flaps would need a heavy hydraulic system, which offends the sub-1000kg Praga’s weight-shedding ethos. There is, however, full air-con and a state of the art touchscreen inside. Sort of. Breathe in, and join Top Gear magazine’s Ollie Kew in the Bohema’s teeny cockpit for an in-depth tour of what this newest pretender to the hypercar crown has to offer, in return for its £1.1million price tag.

Stig Lap: ULTRA RARE £1.65m Bizzarrini 5300 GT Corsa Revival | Top Gear

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7xXYIg_5hm0

This, folks of the internet, is the Bizzarrini 5300 GT Corsa Revival, a modern continuation of the car that won its class at the 24 Hours of Le Mans in 1965. Bizzarrini was established in the 1960s by Giotto Bizzarrini, a former Ferrari engineer who’d worked on the 250 GTO and later went on to help develop the V12 used in Lamborghini’s first production car, the 350 GT.  What you see here then is the brand’s first effort in its new form. Hand-built in the UK, the firm has gone to great lengths to make this revival as true to the original as possible, albeit with a few modifications to meet today’s safety standards. Just after the first 5300 GT Corsa Revival was delivered to its very lucky owner, one of the 24 examples rolled up to the Top Gear Test Track for a debut hotlap with The Stig. Despite it arriving with a ‘quieter’ exhaust setup, the noise the 5.3-litre V8 made wasn’t exactly subtle. On an extremely hot day at Dunsfold it managed a 1:28.3, but you’re not buying one of these for lap times, are you? Mind you, the noise has got to be worth the price alone. Now, about that quiet exhaust setup… Subscribe to Top Gear for more videos: http://bit.ly/SubscribeToTopGear MORE ABOUT TOP GEAR:
