Summary
Jonny explains how he once jumped a Ford Sierra Sapphire in honour of the Dukes of Hazzard. Plus, having a wee with Jason Plato and almost getting banned from Millbrook proving ground. The two things are related. Also in this show, memories of Bruntingthorpe, doing a 360 degree skid in a lorry, scary noises at a 1980s USAF base, fat Stig testing a dumper truck, the 50th anniversary of the Range Rover, and the only acceptable designs of three spoke alloy wheels.
