What's in our Car Town garage today?

1981 Volkswagen DamperVan

In the Top Gear Car Boats challenge, Richard Hammond chose a 1981 Volkswagen T25 for the basis of converting this second-hand minibus into a boat, which is the basis for the challenged. The campervan has turned into a DamperVan but just at the start of the challenge, Hammond's DamperVan got submerged just before he had a chance to move!

2012 Subaru XV Crosstrek

The XV was designed to be a sport utility crossover variant of the Subaru Impreza and shortly after the Subaru Impreza's 2011 full model change, the XV made its debut at the 2012 New York International Auto Show and slot below the Legacy-based Subaru Outback. It has Subaru's newly-developed FB20 engine developing 150PS of power and 196Nm of torque, while mated with Subaru's Lineartronic CVT. The Symmetrical AWD makes the Subaru XV travel wherever it goes, making it a perfect adventure buddy.
