We really ought to write these guys into Fenspace, because you know they'll be out there poking at all the 'waved cars and asking about their performance.
Alright, so I'm biased - I've been a Top Gear fan for a very long time. But it makes so, so much sense.
That, and if the Reliant Robin episode was in the Fenspace timeline (it almost would, this is from the current season, filmed last year) ... they probably actually made it into space.
Which would be, y'know, an amazing amount of notoriety. And a whole lot of public criticism; what was the BBC thinking, letting these loons blast off on TV?
(Clarkson: "Oh, they knew it was perfectly safe. Hammond wasn't driving." Hammond: "Well thank you very much!" Clarkson: "Everyone knows what happened the last time we let you near a rocket car.")
And consider the possibilities later on in Fenspace.
(Top Gear's 10 Worst 'Waved Cars - May: "Now, take this one. The owner's given it a very nice paint job...and an interesting vectored thrust system. You can see the nozzles right here..." *points* "There's only two problems with it. One, it's a Ford Pinto..." *slams door shut, faint wheezing sound* "...and two, it leaks.")
