Article Revised
[edit]Several issues were demonstrated in the creation of this article, that required a revision of it. These are as follows:
- Lead - Contained more info than was needed. The cars used by the presenters could be just mentioned in the Summary, while info about filming shouldn't be in here.
- Infobox - Setup for detailing an episode, despite the fact it is a special edition of the show. Revised it to the format used on other specials.
- Vehicles - Section was unnecessary, as it hardly had much justification for being created. The cars used by the presenters, and their fate, can be easily mentioned in the Summary for the episode.
- Filming - This did not detail out filming, and what was in the article is not much. What was in here discussed the controversial issues that occurred, which suit the Controversy section of the article, not this section. This section itself is in HIDDEN TXT, until editors can research the filming angle of the episode, and cite the sources they used, without mentioning the Controversies faced during filming.
- Release and Reception - This hardly had much information on release; there was just a single sentence discussing the special's trailer. This was deleted, while the info was rewritten, and the section focused on the special's reception with viewers and critics.
- Controversy - This basically copied one paragraph of information on this subject from another article. This has been expanded as a result.

"H982 FKL" was a random number plate chosen by the manufacturer.
[edit]What a load of complete and utter rubbish. The chances of 982 FKL being chosen at random are so minuscule as to be almost impossible. It's the Top Gear sense of humour, misfiring spectacularly. B. Fairbairn (talk) 15:51, 17 August 2024 (UTC)
