You’ve got to the brits with their understated irony. In this hilarious video we see Tiff Needell scare the living daylights out of his colleague Jason Plato, both Fifth Gear testing the Porsche 911 Turbo Cabriolet. Some of the funnier moments include quotes such as “corner! corner! That was a fiesty one”, simply “Jesus Christ!” and “oh Crikey! Woo woo woo - let me tell the story”. This is one to combat the Monday blues. Enjoy! If you want to see the full test version without the behind scenes fun, see our post here on Fifth Gear’s 911 Turbo cabrio test.
