    I've a little soft spot for the Sprite, I got to admit. The Ami always seemed to be cool & very French. I will be interesting to see what happens on the 'show'.

    They better not do anything to the frogeye, or I swear to God I'll personally run them over !!!! Hopefully they're just doing it for a review or something, as long as they're the same as they were when they were bought. Wrecking caravans is one thing, vintage cars is another !!!

    Maybe they are going to do an affordable classics challange - the challange being that they withstand the impact of a piano at terminal velocity :p;)

    I would mind seeing a capri bashed up, they're being broken everyday for pintos and axels and shocks etc. also, i think clarkson would do a much better job than this lot:
