If you happen to be in London, take a Black Cab, you might just end up being The Stig’s passenger. This morning, Top Gear’s racing driver offered TV and radio presenter, Chris Evans, the ride of his life, offering him a quick tour of ExCel London, the capital’s venue for the Top Gear Live 2011.
The taxi ride included negotiating service ramps, the underground car park, power-sliding through the show halls and across the central boulevard, with the Stig flying across the enormous venue.

The publicity stunt was pulled to announce Evan’s appearance at this year’s Top Gear Live, which will visit London, between November 24-27th at the aforementioned location, as well as the NEC in Birmingham between11 – 13 November.
