EXTENDED: Chris Harris vs the Ariel Atom 4 | Top Gear: Series 28

Back in January, Chris Harris took to the Top Gear track in, what looked like, an old Ariel Atom. Except it wasn’t an old Ariel Atom. It was the all-new Ariel Atom 4. So here he is, finding out just how ‘new’ said Ariel Atom 4 really is.

Did people complain about the understeer in the originals?
I don't have a photographic memory but I don't recall any reviewer complaining about it.

I bet the whine of the supercharger was deafening, but it kinda made the car in my experience..

We also need a fresh young crew those guys (JJR) were getting too old to be driving like how Chris Harris drives. NICE ONE TOP GEAR. You guys got me back to liking TG. More realistic too and more informative

Here's a little comparison on track between the Atom 4 & Atom 3! [https://youtu.be/LsPXS0DYFtw%5D. Who's fastest you think?

I wonder which is actually better, the K20c in this car or the K24z7 with a turbo in the Atom 3s?

Who the hell cares what people think about you based on what you drive… or anything for that matter? And why is it always a "mid-life crisis?" Can't someone just love driving and think this is badass? Which it is. That Type R motor is a beast in the CTR, and now in this… sheesh! I want one.

Uh, given how quick it goes, even as a track toy, I'd rather have paddle shifters on that thing… This way you can concentrate more on steering the beast! And have an auto mode to drive to and back from the track too :p

Enclose the driver. Put the Honda Insight engine and batteries inside. Bam: 100+ MPGs…
