Reply to "Pantera on Top Gear"

For you guys interested in this car, that was made for Jeremy Clarksons video "top 100 cars" Look closely and you will see the harder driving is done not by Clarkson, its actually Phil Stebbings, founder of the Detomaso Drivers Club UK. The car belonged to one of the members when crashed previously by Quentin Wilson during filming for an early Top Gear. The BBC did indeed write a cheque for 50k sterling for the owner although he did not pay that much to have it rebuilt. During the rebuild the motor was also done, and dynos at 550hp, the car is a 1985 GT5, and today according to Phil Stebbings is one of the quickest Panteras he has ever driven, and he has driven dozens.
