Top Gear Appearances
He had appeared in Top Gear series 10 episode 6 driving a nimble Toyota motorhome. In series 12 episode 5 he raced a single tier bus against other touring car drivers - winning it. As a result, he questionably proved that the single tier bus is most suited to the urban environment.
Reid was involved in an attempt to speed up airport transport on Top Gear, driving a catering truck against other various Touring Car colleagues. The race culminated with Reid being the only racing driver left against Hammond, however the vehicle became unbalanced (after Reid ejected his crockery to lose some weight). The truck listed to one side and eventually fell over, allowing Hammond to win.

How she stood at the top of that long marble stair
Amazed, and then with a sleepy pirouette
Went dancing slowly down to the fountain-quieted square;”
