A team of talented students from Coventry University's Automotive Design course were commissioned to work on styling, whilst the aluminium bodywork was hand crafted by the people who make the fabulous Petersen Bentley. Showing extraordinary attention to detail, the P45 was painted with blue twin stripes, paying homage to legendary AC Cobra creator, Carroll Shelby. Fortunately for Shelby, that was where the similarities between the two cars ended.

Ever the professional, Jeremy embarked on an extensive road test of the vehicle, which saw him driving at top speeds of around 30mph on the A3, taking the vehicle onboard a coach to London - to demonstrate how easy it is to get onboard a train - and then driving it through Westfield Shopping Centre and the British Library. Despite its many shortcomings, including a microscopic fuel tank, high risk of nose-smashing and inability to get through a car wash without jamming the machinery and soaking the driver's suit, Jeremy then entered the Dragon's Den, seeking investment from the dragons for mass production ? their verdict was a unanimous and resounding 'I'm out'. Throughout the test drive, Jeremy was singing its praises, describing the car simply as 'completely excellent'. Richard and James, however, were a little less enthusiastic, preferring to call it 'utterly ridiculous' and 'a complete death trap'. The P45 is now on display at Beaulieu's World of Top Gear exhibition, where visitors can make a thorough inspection of the car and decide for themselves whether it is ingenious - or just plain insane.
