Not from watching it on YouTube you can't as the quality suffers from the video compression. Watch it on a big screen and get ready with the pause button and you'll see it clearly.
This might be a re-post, given that this episode of TopGear is a few years old now, but here goes anyway: In the episode where Clarkson drives the S-Type Jaguar around the Nurburgring, a blue Clio with a huge ClioSport sticker on the rear window is just about visible (if you pause the picture)...
Hi all
For a while now I have experienced problems with the handbrake on my 1.4 S. After I clean the car, or drive in the wet, the handbrake sticks.
Sometimes it's minor with the brake discs remaining locked once the handbrake is released, and then releasing when you pull away. This sounds...

Contemplating the purchase of a Meg's G220, so I might thrown in the extra cash for the wax. Actually, I also need a new wash mitt as my old one's ripped; new drying towel, polishing cloth, bah ... this is getting an expensive hobby.
