Microsoft and the BBC have announced a collaboration between the Forza racing series and the BBC's hit show Top Gear.

According to Microsoft, the Top Gear brand will be integrated into future Forza products which they say will "give fans of both Forza Motorsport and Top Gear a unique opportunity to engage in both brands".

The deal comes into play with the release of the Forza Motorsport 3 Ultimate Collection where 90 minutes of specially edited Top Gear TV content plus access to the ‘Stig’s Garage Car Pack’ will be part of the new release which will be available on 29 October.

The Ultmate collection will include the Top Gear content as well as all previously released content and includes an Xbox LIVE downloadable content card giving players access to three new cars, The Koenigsegg CCX, LEXUS LFA, and Mercedes Benz SLS-AMG which are part of ‘Stig’s Garage Car Pack’.
