Episode Guide

Review: Subsequently destroying the disappointing Maserati Biturbo and lauding the Maserati 250F for its operation in the hands of Juan Manuel Fangio in the 1957 German language Grand Prix, Clarkson announces the £412,000 Maserati MC12, saying information technology is "An Enzo in Drag". Fastest car of 1:18.nine. He is impressed with its speed, just, similar the Biturbo, doesn't consider it to be a proper Maserati.

News: The recently-released Honda FR-V, with its distinctive "3+three" seating arrangement, is discussed. The upcoming Saab 9-iii SportWagon, Hummer H3, tertiary-generation Mazda MX-5, 8th-generation Honda Civic, and Ferrari 575M Superamerica, a convertible version of the 575M Maranello, are discussed. Clarkson disputes Ferrari's claim that the Superamerica is the "earth's fastest convertible", naming several other convertible supercars (such as the Porsche Carrera GT) which are faster.

Claiming: The team was asked to purchase a 2-door coupé that wasn't a Porsche for under £1,500, mirroring a contest they had in series five where they each had to spend £1,500 to buy a Porsche. May bought a Jaguar XJS, Hammond a BMW 635CSi, while Clarkson went for a turbocharged Mitsubishi Starion. They were then sent to the Millbrook Proving Ground in Bedfordshire for a series of challenges to see who had got the all-time bargain, scoring points for each challenge. The challenges included trying to get to 140 mph (225 km/h), having to drive at thirty mph (48 km/h) over Belgian cobbles with a bucket of water on their lap. They and so had to bulldoze to Oxford and see upwards at the QI Gild. Clarkson arrived first, followed 47 minutes later on past Hammond. May never made it; his Jag broke down five times en road. Finally, the team were allowed to spend the remainder of their £1,500 on upgrading their cars prior to an endurance race in a farm's field. The overall winner turned out to be May, followed by Hammond, merely with Clarkson out of the running. May, however, offered to requite the title to Clarkson if he admitted "I'1000 a clot and I ruined my automobile", because he had installed a highly uprated turbocharger (said to exist from Pentti Airikkala's Group A Rally car), without whatsoever change to the cooling arrangement. (and besides because Clarkson well-nigh tricked him into saying that the best 2-door coupé for less than £ane,500 was "a V12 car made by communists") The issue was that during the endurance race, the engine coolant boiled repeatedly, destroying power and putting Clarkson out of the running. Clarkson instantly said, "I'm a clot and I ruined my auto," and so celebrated his "victory".
