#  620R TAKES ON TOP GEAR’S TUNNEL RUN

“It’s over ten years old… and still the featherweight champion of the world”,
according to the team at Top Gear. Our insane 620R, which some of you may know
as LEGO CAT, is the latest vehicle to take on Catesby Tunnel in Top Gear’s (UK) web series.

Described as a ‘leaky old tunnel turned into a high-tech test centre’, Catesby is the latest automotive facility designed for vehicle manufacturers to push cars to their absolute limits. It houses a 2.7km purpose-built straight road test track, in a sealed working environment, allowing for an extensive range of vehicle assessment studies in repeatable conditions. Lots of lovely science-y stuff.

Usually, we’d be banging on about how a 620R can hit 62 mph in just 2.7s, or how it’s faster around Knockhill than most McLarens – but that’s not why we’re here. No, this time it's all about noise, and LEGO CAT brings it by the bucket-load.

**So, pop your headphones on, pump up the volume, sit back and enjoy. This is one's for the petrolheads.**

Unfortunately, this soundtrack isn’t available on Spotify or other leading music providers!
