Top Gear #137 - Enzo vs MC12 *poor quality*
 

Well, a lot of people have been asking for this particular review so here it is. I have a subscription to TG magazine so i get it through my door before it is available on the shelves, and have a very large collection. I have all the magazines from episode 72 of September 1999 through to the current date.

And yes that is me stood next to them - the stack is waist high!

HOWEVER i don't currently have a scanner, so i have taken phots of the review with the enzo and mc12, so quality is anything from brilliant - i am not sure how much scanners cost, and to be quite honest i have things to buy with my limited cash that are more important.

**I am perfectly willing to photo any review you want from the episodes i have - just name the car (or the episode if possible, which will help me loads)**

Anyway, here is the review: *56K BEWARE*

This is the scan/pics I've been waiting for!!!!!

Thank you! I've gotta take 10 mins to read them :D

thanks, but nice car looks aston martin not like those 2 superfuture race titans,
BTW nice collection of TG mags, i had big collection of autocar and speed but they are in bad conditions, i love reading mags in bath :D

You beat me to it tom :)

A quick tip... don't use the flash... i don't think you did, but use plenty of natural light (ther's not much around atm, i know)

Also.. does your cam have a close-up button, that will allow it to focus better on the page... it's a little flower symbol, and will give better results, cos i'm struggling to read some of it. The photography looks great, the pictures are amazing, and that lucky-as-fuck Tom Ford is driving an Enzo :shock:

thanks for the tips - i never use the flash, but as you say there isnt much light around - and if i had put direct lights on, there would have been a big sillhoutte of me holding a cam :D - i dont have a close up function - it just auto focuses itself, but it is not brilliant - if i was further away, and just zoomed into the picture - would that help?

Hmm.. i'm no expert... my Canon does pretty much everything by itself too :oops:

LOL - just noticed you called the topic "Top Gear episode 137" :wink:

do you think episode is the wrong word to use? :?

*EDIT* problem solved :D

Good review , perfect cars , i would have preferred that CLarkson reviewed em and the stig puts the mc12 to the track , then i would have been perfect !!

Thankx a lot !

thanks Tom. Appreciate the effort, despite the low quality :D

maybe trying issue :idea:

lol... "episode" sounds more like a Jabba-post :P

ohh shit - yeah, i thought it sounded a little bit wierd!

Thanks a lot mate; I think I will try to buy this issue. Usually, I find TG crappy but for this test I will make an exception :wink:

coooool!! I have issues 61, 68 and then 72 onwards right up until 137 - the most recent. my earliest (61) i think is october 1998

You will get better quality when I will receive this issue :D

After reading the article, I'm surprised. I was defenitely expecting the MC12 to be the more hard-edged car, considering it was developed solely for racing homologation. What you think?
