LOL @ fender bender -- if someone did that to my car and called it a "fender bender" there would be blood

Much as I enjoy Top Gear for its entertainment value, this is not a totally unsurprising result if Jeremy and the lads drove that car hard on the Isle of Man -- would require somewhat more precise skills than than powersliding around the 50yd-wide runways that comprise most of the Top Gear test track.
