‘Top Gear’ crew forced to flee over Falkands War car

The cast and crew of BBC’s Top Gear had to abandon their cars at the roadside and flee Argentina after being pelted with stones by an angry crowd.

The attack happened after it emerged they were using a vehicle with a number plate apparently referring to the Falklands War.

That vehicle — a Porsche with the registration number H982 FKL, which some people suggested could refer to the Falklands conflict of 1982 — was among those abandoned.
