Ride with the Stig
Unless you’re (a) very famous or (b) a bit famous and it’s been a quiet week, the chances of you getting a ride round the Top Gear test track with The Stig are, well, non-existent.
Until now. Our tame racing driving has teamed up with Comic Relief (we saw ‘teamed up with’ – they’ve actually lured him into a big box with half an antelope carcass and refused to let him out) to give you a passenger ride around our illustrious test track. All for charidee.
It’ll be wild. It’ll be sideways. It might very well smell slightly of cinnamon. But if you want to be in that car alongside Baron Stiggington himself, you’d better get on over to our auction page and put in a bid.
There are a few conditions about travel, timings and not wearing tartan (it sends Stiggy into a wild rage, see) on the auction page, so make sure you have a good look through them before placing your improbably generous bid. Of course, all the proceeds go straight to Comic Relief.
Best of luck bidding, y’all.

Nice! But now you either need to be a) famous, b) kind of famous, or c) wealthy.

The prize is brilliant but the auction is a stupid idea! Only a wealthy person will have a chance to win. It would have been much better to have people donate £5 and be entered into a draw. That way you get at least 10,000 people donating £5 instead of one rich person winning with a £5,000 bid. I suppose Top Gear opted for the easy way and did not want to go down the route of a competition in fear of competition fix claims!

The lap will either be in a Lambo, or an Ariel Atom for a face-bending experience. Current bit is 3.5k but we all know everyone who's got money is 'sniping' - waiting until the last second before bidding. Either way Comic Relief will be getting quite a bit of money from this.
