The speed camera Osama Bin Laden bit was comedy :D And the mini-cabbing made me larf. Clarksons quality overtaking in that Merc will no doubt get a few complaints....



That Dutch Spyker C8 thing was pretty cool as well, from a looks point of view. 525bhp version should be cooler...



I did wanna see that Merc go round the track tho, although it was quite handy in that drag race...

"Due to the unique way that the BBC is funded", they decided to moonlight with a couple of test models to pay the production bill for the show, then dared to claim it was a condensed "Hard life" test. Bloody cheek, we should all refuse to pay our license fees.

The last over take into the path of the Wagon was a little dodgy from a "more fuel for Brinstrom" point of view.

Something about that interior (like a 1940 New Orleans Bordellon crossed with a missipi Steamboat) that really struck a cord with me. I loved it. One for the yes please list, and so what if it designed to look good at

40 or slower, I use the M62, the 3rd lane is like that everyday.

Yeah, would have been interesting if it actually handled.

Brilliant overtaking.

However - Lionel Ritchie, he IS the man. Entertaining and can actually drive!

For someone of his "status" he seemed a genuine kinda of bloke too.
