Win double tickets to this year’s Top Gear Festival in Durban

Power your way to victory in the best Top Gear competition… in the world. Some say it’s the most amazing motoring show in existence. All we know is that we’re giving away a set of two classic tickets to this year’s Top Gear Festival in Durban, South Africa to one Gearburn reader.

The two-day motoring craziness with the crew from Top Gear takes place on 15 and 16 June at the Moses Mabhida Stadium, and includes a live stadium show, a street circuit packed with stunts and iconic cars, as well as an exhibition of gadgets and some of the rarest, most expensive vehicles ever to touch tarmac.

And on that bombshell, it’s time to enter.

What you have to do:

1. Head along to the Top Gear Festival website and find out which Top Gear presenter almost didn’t make it to this year’s event.
2. Give some thought to this question: ‘What does The Stig eat for breakfast?’
3. Tweet us the answers to both these questions along with the hashtag #TopGearburn.
