I remember Jock S telling me he did the ring taxi prior to driving it himself in his left-hook Carrera. He says "This guy told me that the turn in point for the carousel is marked by a tall tree...  oh yes - as if trees were a novelty".

That was after telling me about his rally navigator with a stammer...

Sabine is the girl who drives the ring.

Details of the ring-taxi (BMW M5) are here http://tinyurl.com/7s23k, in German only.

Costs €175 for 3 people apparently...

Sabine driving the transit on Top Gear  (10th July) was a top gear highlight, I wonder how much better she would have been if it had uprated brakes? Another highlight was the Diesel Jag previously (lowlights include that ridiculous car football a few months back).

Sabine needs to feature more regularly.

I'd love to book the ring taxi, looks a lot safer (and cheaper) than putting your own car in the armco.

maybe next year..

Indeed. Not only is she a much better driver than any of the Top Gear trio she's a lot easier on the eye too....

And she speaka da lingo better than Clarkson et al too.

And far easier on the eye... She was formally offered a job on camera, so if she doesn't show up shall we all sue the producers?

Why do pace notes sound so much more exiting in Italian?

"Sinistra due!!"

"cresta!!"

"stringe!!!!"

If any of the old fashioned non-believers like Harper M (aka backward looking dumb-asses) ever needed a demonstration of why four wheel drive is so utterly superior when maximum traction on poor road surfaces is required, then this is Exhibit A. The way that baby grabs the grit and shoots off down the next straight is awsome. I rest my case.

Got any more awsome clips GF?
