Of the three, the Ferrari looked best.

I had no idea either. But then, I don't watch broadcast television very often. I'd struggle to choose between the Benz and the Ferrari and I hate that I'm leaning more towards the yobbo pube-head's favourite, but there it is.

I understood Hammond's point about James and Jezza driving their chosen cars for the benfit of others, whilst he was driving the RS for himself.

Thing is, Supercars should be shown off for the benefit of others. Small boys and 40-somethings alike.

Not a barrel of laughs but consistently interesting and with some fantastic images along the way. Maybe not the best Top Gear, but I'd say pushing for the best 'road trip' episode. Better than the Vietnam one and the Jungle one, maybe as good as the one that ended in New Orleans?

I am quite surprised that the BMW did so badly. Amazing countryside though especially the mountain road north of Arbil.

Disappointing. Sex in the City 2, only with more tits. Also at 1 hour 15 mins it is 25% more painful than a normal episode.
