I hope this isn't a double post, but even so, it's a worthy cause. images/smilies/smile.gif

Some say he's very generous...we agree. The Stig has offered this unique prize as a one-off for BBC Children in Need!

This is a fantastic, once in a lifetime opportunity to experience a lap around the Top Gear track with none other than the infamous Stig at the wheel!

Not only will you get to experience something unique that usually only celebrity guests on the show get to experience, but you will also be helping to support disadvantaged children and young people across the UK. So get bidding now!

If you decide to make an offer, you will need to dig deep into your pockets as the current bidding stands at £4,350.00!

Sorry, I thought bidding only started yesterday, so I didn't look back any further than that. Current bid stands at £4,550.00 by the way. That's another £200 in less than 30 minutes. I have a feeling that for the money Stig is going to generate you could buy yourself a very reasonably priced car. images/smilies/biggrin.gif

And a Stig costume and the hire of a racing driver to wear said Stig costume and the hire of the track for an hour or so as well. images/smilies/smile.gif

"And for those who can't afford a Stig or find they have sold out in the run up to Christmas, you can find out how to make your very own Stig from common household items on Blue Peter on Thursday at 5 o'clock here on BBC1"

Non UK members don't worry - it's a British thing that would just take forever to explain.

Shame there is no mention as to what Stig will be driving images/smilies/sad.gif

I'm feeling flush this month...........but not that flush.

5,100 would be fine for a trip in a Veyron, but if he pulled up in a Panda I'd sic the boy scouts on him.

LindenChase · November 12th, 2008, 3:31 PM

£8,099.00 and counting..... images/smilies/cool.gif

Cobol74 · November 12th, 2008, 3:38 PM

It will be the Korean thing obviously.

LindenChase · November 20th, 2008, 5:06 PM

1 hour and 53 minutes to go, so you'll need to hurry if you want to start bidding images/smilies/smile.gif

And you'll need some serious cash. The price now stands at £15,203.00. images/smilies/cool.gif

Goose+ · November 20th, 2008, 5:11 PM

You could buy a decent car for that sort of money.
