Top Gear has slipped a Mitsubishi Evo Lancer engine, capable of producing 400 cubic-horsepower, into the chassis of a classic black London cab. Thanks to the enhanced Mitsubishi engine, the taxi can hit 0 - 60 mph in 3.8 seconds, and has a 'selectable centre differential,' allowing you to do very fast drifting or donuts.

Piloted by The Stig, this car will be a main attraction at Top Gear Live 2011.

Starting this November, the ongoing spectacle lets fans meet with hosts, and see real world testing of luxury vehicles. They can even hop into a vehicle and be taken around during a speedy test drive.

"The all-new live show format has an indoor track where you'll see much supercar hoonage, stars being shoved into reasonably priced cars, Jeremy, James and Richard blowing things up and, of course, more Stigcab idiocy."¹

Get your tickets now if you're headed over to the UK - Top Gear Live opens November 11th and ends the 13th.
