Last year was our boldest, most costly, most opulent Top Gear Awards ever. But that was nothing compared to what we've got planned for this year.

We're celebrating the Top Gear Awards 2006 on an unprecedented scale - 12 of the year's greatest cars shot at an awesome location and revealed to you on-by-one, via exclusive video teaser clips right here at TopGear.com.

Check out our PREVIEW VIDEO for a taster, then log on from Monday December 4 to be part of the winners' countdown.

Every day there'll be a brand-new video giving you a sneak preview of each of the category winners. It's a bit like an advent calendar, but without the rubbish chocolate.

Then, we'll announce the overall Top Gear Awards 2006 winner just as our special Awards issue of Top Gear magazine hits the shops on December 13 - with all the results in full, glossy detail.
