Breaking An Electric Ferrari Lap Record | Top Gear

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=J9kSzik0u9k

Ferrari’s official factory test track celebrates its 50th birthday this year. In that half-century, it’s welcomed F1 champions, racing car royalty and been the boot camp for the 288 GTO, F40, F50, Enzo and beyond. But in all those years, there’s never been an electric lap record at Fiorano. Not until TopGear decided to set one… Since there’s no electric Ferrari road cars (yet) TopGear magazine’s Ollie Kew enlisted the help of Oxfordshire’s Little Car Company, which hand-builds scaled-down replicas of iconic classic for wealthy children – and big kids. Its fastest creation yet is this 75% model of a 250 Testa Rossa, complete with Brembo brakes, Borrani wheels, Eibach suspension and a mighty 16bhp. Plenty, when there’s no seatbelt. It’s probably the ultimate toy car – and the most expensive, at £100,000 – but is it capable of setting a lap time on Ferrari’s hallowed tarmac that Enzo himself would be proud of?

Driving The Ultimate School Bus Up An Active Volcano | Top Gear

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Bn8NgdiHfgg

This behemoth is the Torsus Praetorian – the Mad Max of coaches. It came to life after the husband and wife team of Pulsar Expo realised that companies needed a more efficient way to move people on-site than a fleet of pick-ups and SUVs. What spawned was a 35-seater off-road bus which can handle pretty much any terrain you can think of. Its 6.9-litre straight-six diesel engine produces 290bhp which might not sound like much considering a basic Praetorian weighs 13,400kgs – until you find out it also has 848lb-ft torque. Where else better to test the ultimate off-road bus than Mount Etna, the highest active volcano in Europe hanging out at just under 11,000 ft. Allow Top Gear Magazine's Tom Ford to be your guide.

FIRST DRIVE: NEW Ferrari Daytona SP3 – £2m, 828bhp N/A V12 Hypercar | Top Gear

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

It has the richest back catalogue of all, but Ferrari will never do a ‘continuation’ car. That doesn’t mean heritage is off-limits, though, which is where the Icona series comes in. Meet the Daytona SP3, a limited series, carbon fibre-bodied and mid-engined V12 two-seater fuelled by memories of the spectacular late Sixties/early Seventies Sport Prototipo era, and the 1-2-3 result in 1967’s Daytona 24 Hours race in particular. Allow Top Gear Magazine's Jack Rix to be your guide on this one-of-599, 828bhp Ferrari that's worth £2m. Subscribe to Top Gear for more videos: http://bit.ly/SubscribeToTopGear MORE ABOUT TOP GEAR:

Driving The Blackest Rolls-Royce EVER! | Top Gear

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

Back in 2016 Rolls-Royce launched ‘Black Badge’. Wanting a new, slightly rebellious strand to youth things up a bit, Black Badge offers Rollers (it’s been available on everything apart from Phantom so far) more performance and luxury but in a contemporary darkened aesthetic. Now there’s a new one: the 2022 Ghost Black Badge. So Top Gear decided to spec the blackest Rolls-Royce ever, then take it on a journey through darkness. As there’s more to black than being the opposite of white. As Top Gear Magazine’s Head of Content, Rowan Horncastle, will explain. Chapters:
00:00 Intro
00:45 What Is Black Badge?
01:33 The First Black Rolls-Royce’s
04:26 The Blackest Rolls-Royce Ever
06:24 Is The Ghost Good To Drive?

Skoda Enyaq Review: Interior, Range, Price, 0-60mph, & More | Top Gear Tested

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aBs4GfgkRAw

There was a time when Skodas used to be the punchlines to all car jokes. Well, not anymore, thanks to a bunch of Volkswagen bits and some common sense pricing. Enter the Enyaq: Skoda's first purpose-built EV in the form of a boxy five-seater SUV. It's based on the same platform as the VW ID.4 and the Audi Q4 e-tron, but is the cheapest of the lot, starting at just £32,000. Can the Enyaq really out-do its rivals with a smaller price tag? Here is Top Gear Magazine's Serious Car Tester, Ollie Kew, to find out… Subscribe to Top Gear for more videos: http://bit.ly/SubscribeToTopGear MORE ABOUT TOP GEAR:
