Jeremy Clarkson hands over the driving seat to Michael Schumacher, who pushes the new Ford Mustang to the limit round Silverstone. Ford don't think it will sell in Britain. Jeremy begs to differ. He thinks it's one of a growing number of cars that would find eager buyers if only their manufacturers' marketing "boffins" would let them into the country.

But their new British-designed bike, the Skorpion, is set to change all that.
