You could see that one coming as Steve Curtis walked past a 225 on the back of a Cougar with a 2.3 over his shoulder!

James May's driving a Triumph Herald.... with a sailing rig!

Can't believe that Toyota is working, No Doubt Honda are sponsouring this event!!!

Well that is one trashed Honda 225 Vetec

[laser]

omg that was sooo amusing, shame he trashed a perfectly good honda outboard!!!! still worth the amusment value

[Gray]

that was brilliant! wasn't quite the 40 knots! Would have loved to see the Hilux do 40 knots!

so are we going to see a honda 225 pop up on ebay soon at a very good price.

I reckon if he had made the front of his Hi-Lux more water friendly he would have done a whole lot better. Plus if he'd have stuck some Tubes on it then he deifinitely would have succeeded

They wrecked a 2.3hp too, when the dampervan sunk! Was a good Top Gear though, that Hilux would not be alot more slippery in its underwater profile to plane!
