There will be some top scraping action in Ep3 which is the next one up.

Highlights for Ep3

This week, the boys wanted to celebrate the single greatest supercar of today, but couldn't agree what that was. Eventually, they decided to take one each on a massive road test to find out.

The result? A Ferrari F430, Ford GT and Pagani Zonda flat-out through France. Prepare for one of the most stunning items Top Gear has ever made. And the shock of James May driving like his brogues are on fire.

Back in the studio, Ford brings its stunning Iosis concept - the car that gives us a clue to the new Mondeo. Well, sort of.

The Ford Focus ST takes to the track - and Jeremy nicknames it the Focus 'ASBO'. Chavtastic...

The Top Gear guest this week is transport secretary Stephen Ladyman - which should make for a pretty explosive interview, they reckon.
 
Oh I'm looking forward to seeing Jeremy and Ladymantogether :lol:.


The supercar's in France sounds like it'll be great viewing, France is great for driving through, fantastic scenery and better maintained roads.

Sound's like a pretty good episode on Sunday.
 
There wasn't as much car footage as normal but the humour was superb, I still liked last weeks episode.
 
Clarkson is on Talking with Jonathan Rose, and Rose goes when is Top Gear Back on. Clakson told him he made a fool of himself, but Rose got annoyed with him.

And said Clarkson cheated so he could be on of the slowest in the lap times, but Clarkson told him. He got lost which is true.

@Young_Warrior: I would like to see some British cars like the TVR Sagaris, with the new Radcal. And the DB9 again.
 
The Sagaris was done last series, so was the DB9 coupe and volante, the new Radical would be a cool feature though. This season we might get the TVR Typhon if they get hold of one before all the filming is done.

I was hoping for the Cerbera Speed 12 but talks haven't been concluded yet or at least they hadn't a week ago which was the last time I heared from the owner.
 
Ye I would like to see the typhoon aswell.Gnerally I think that the ferrari and gt are kind of boring cars as their rivals go. I would have prefered to see like a murcelago and a typhoon instead.
 
I cannot remember the Sargaris getting a full review, next ep is still yet to come. But they already showen off the Ford GT, still need to do more for the Brits.

And its Typhon.
 
It's called the Typhon, not Typhoon. Typhoon is like a hurricane, Typhon is the name of an ancient greek monster so powerful it chased the god's away.

I still love how TVR use monster names and other names of things from Stories. Typhoon is also the Euro Fighter jet, people should know this.

The TVR Cerbera is named after Cerberus monster dog which had three heads.

Download and install Realplayer.
don't! its rubbish...

get media player classic and download the realplayer-alternative codec. that enables you to watch realmedia files without installing another player. there is also a quicktime alternative codec to watch quicktime files. so you only need one player for everything. both codecs are also included in some codec packs. with MPC and a decent codec pack you can watch everything, including dvds if you have a dvd drive and MPC works far better than the windows media player...

Yep they have done a test on the Sagaris, I'm sure it was in the last series as it was shown in the recent best of re-runs.

Lap time is at the Top Gear website

The Stigs times
