From the mag, things in this series James vs The Volcano : James goes Iceland to see a volcano, which then erupts grounding every plane in Europe. James pleads innocence. Affordable sports saloons: £5000 to buy a 4 door car which can also handle the track Four Door Supercars : Aston Rapide vs Mazerati Quattroporte vs Porsche Panamera Motorhomes : Think the amphibious cars but with more beds Touareg vs Snowmobile : Hammond races a snowbike Jeremy Test drives a robin reliant - what could possibly go wrong? British Sports Cars : were they ever any good? The gang find out by each buying one for £5000 and competing in challenges. Cars on the test track : Bentley conti supersports, Audi r8 v10 spider, Ferrari 458 Italia, Merc E63 AMG, 911 turbo cabrio plus 'something very exciting with a new Bugatti' A 'viking burial' for the Lacetti : by the look of it, they drop a building on it.

Well, naming the car for a start. We don't drive around in Focus Fords, or Astra Vauxhalls, do we?

I could probably live witthout the football. Watching cricket is an excuse for sitting around in the afternoon in the sun with a beer - if you need one

I did too. You see, I think they realised that people were getting wise to their set-ups and so went for something obviously set up but very funny also. That was pure genius! Laughed most of the way through it

Agreed - it was hilarious. However the volcano one was pointless and crap
