Ultimate Scale model builder?!?
It's old but sure need to be posted here in the right place.
Anyone now from when/where Jeremy Clarkson did this?

Impress me...
When someone builds a working scale model of an Alfa Bimotore then I'll be impressed.

I could be wrong, but if I remember rightly that was part of the Jeremy Clarkson/BBC series "Motorworld", which aired sometime in the late 90's (97 maybe?). I know a highlight video was released by the BBC but I've no idea if it was rereleased on DVD at all.
An amazing achievement though. I'd love to see a scale Mk.III or Mk.IV GT40, just to hear the scale V8!

That's an absolutely amazing car. He was really dedicated to getting that thing right. Ferarri should buy it from it him so it can be given a proper display.
I mentioned this in the other thread, but that car's displacement is not to scale. That's why the sound is so surprisingly good.
