I also scored 100% which was easy.

Need to buy another fast car to be a real petrol head.

Not hard to get high scores.

Just imagine you are 14 years old, and still longing for the day your Dad lets you have a go at starting/stopping in the driveway. Answer the questions accordingly, you will score highly.

Makes me wonder if BBC Top Gear may be involved?

100% for me - I may not always be able to afford fast cars but I always enjoy driving them. Had no idea what a HO/RT1 was though

73% for me answering truthfully. Knew some of my answers weren't right but were living in times where to be a petrol head you need a good bank balance.

HORT1 is the producer form you're given when you get pulled over and don't have license/insurance docs etc. on you.

I got 100% while answering completely truthfully, hehehe.
