Title: Melbourne Ariel Atom Post by: roy-nexus-6 on October 20, 2010, 03:45:59 PM Hi Guys,
meant to post this ages ago. Some lucky sod in Melbourne owns an Ariel Atom. The sound is unbelievable - the whole car is one big Termi. Apologies for the quality of the video - it was the best I could manage at the time, and I nearly had to run my car off the road to get it.

Do you remember Jeremy driving it on Top Gear.

Do you remember Jeremy driving it on Top Gear. I remember Jeremy having his face torn off by an Ariel. The guy I saw was in no danger of that happening - he was in full motorcycle leathers & helmet.

A very cautious biker at heart - I was able to 'chase' him down in a 25 year old car because he never got above 50 km/hr. :-[ Still sounded awesome, though. ;D I didn't even know it was possible to import them into the country.

But as they are the kind of car that they are, a track day special I imagine there are not many takers. |
