Through the sharpest part of Hammerhead. Sharp left, wind off the lock, a touch of throttle, sharp right. And stop. Red light. Move away, avoid the bus coming in from the left.

Big pothole now.You might argue that taking a bunch of diesel saloons and sending them around our famous figure-of-eight test track is about the most pointless thing we could have done to vehicles whose purpose in life is mostly business travel and family life.

About 140:1.Images: Mark RiccioniThis feature originally appeared in the May 2017 issue of Top Gear magazine.
