After the Top
Gear BL special shown on November 25th this website had an extra
80,000 hits the following day, with an extra 15,000 actual visitors. Quite a
record! A shame that the cars were quite badly treated, including being
filled with water, but as it turned out the Princess came through with the
most points and was declared the best car British Leyland ever built. Can’t
argue with that!

2007,
A new series of
Top Gear starts on BBC2 this Sunday (October 7th) at 8.00pm and
among a host of features in the new series there will be a BL special which
will pit a Princess 2200HL, a Rover 3500 SD1 and a Triumph Dolomite Sprint
