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.

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 :lol:
