That’s the One-77. Being cleaned, by a nice man from Aston. White’s a bugger to keep clean. And unstolen.
And that’s the inside of the One-77. Leather comes from cows fed solely on foie gras and Kinder Eggs. Not really.

Mmm, venty.
Mmm, personalised number plate-y. The One-77 gets ready to hit the streets of London, but what’s in the following party?
A whole load of supercars – headed by TopGear’s very black, very evil DBS Carbon Edition. In case you’re wondering, it’s a DBS fed with vast quantities of antimatter.
Pop quiz, punk: name those cars.
Did you get ‘em all? That’s a Ferrari 328 on the left, an F50 on the right and a De Tomaso Pantera in the middle. A hypothetical lollipop for you if you scored three out of three.

That’s a pair of legs. And a Gallardo behind. And a man’s bottom.
A chromey Audi R8, perhaps luckily obscured by a bicycle. We are not sure chrome is a good idea on an R8. In fact, we’re not sure chrome is a good idea ever.

"But the invite said ‘wear appropriate driving shoes’…"
"Clearly I couldn’t possibly condone such flagrant graffiti, but you have to admire the young gentleman’s steady hand…"
Police outrider. And perhaps the coolest man in the universe. Apart from Tony Stark. Actually, Tony Stark doesn’t have an Excellent Moustache. Definitely cooler than Tony Stark.
Phil Mitchell arrives in patriotic mood.
"Honk your horns if you’ve never shopped at Morrisons!" The supercar convoy causes a racket through Central London.
TopGear halts convoy on Park Lane, jumps out to admire DBS in the dappled morning light. Watches DBS roll backwards towards expensive row of cars behind. Remembers that fly handbrakes are sometimes tricky to operate.
TG does best impression of wealthly, sophisticated, unflappable supercar owner. Fails miserably.
The view through the rear window. This is a good view.
"Look! A £1.2 million, 700bhp, ultra-limited Aston Martin directly ahead! No, of course I’m not reading this from a card!"
The riff-raff follows.
Every One-77 will come with a three-man police security team. Not true.
"I am arresting you, sir, on suspicion of possession of a non-corporeal form…"
Lambo spots saucy little 365 GTC across the car park. Becomes suddenly aroused.
Straight in at Number Two on TG’s Big List of People Not To Be Messed With: these guys.
... while these two are hotly tipped to reach the final of this year’s Britain’s Got Talent. Is there a Britain’s Got Talent this year? Does anyone care?
The supercars lined up at Silverstone behind the One-77. To see what happened next, take a look at this video.
