libs Posted January 20, 2009 Report Share Posted January 20, 2009 I still belive they have several. One that excels in each field of driving, and one for studio appearences. That way we appear to see a man who is amazing at every aspect of driving with no flaws. Except he is terrified of girl guides. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Imperfection Posted January 20, 2009 Report Share Posted January 20, 2009 It was always rumoured that Ben Collins is the Stig and he always participated in the football cars,motorhome racing etc so does make sense. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fishman307 Posted January 21, 2009 Report Share Posted January 21, 2009 (edited) The stig , (or whoever) is not employed by top gear, They hire from an agency who have maybe eight or nine people available depending on time of year, There can be very busy spells with race car development wich comes first and is what pays the wages, Wether Ben Collins has worked for them i do not know, But if you want a real clue one of the most used is an American!
