Episode Summary & Review

Summary

Jeremy road tests the new Smart Roadster and introduces the Cool Wall. Richard destroys a Nissan Sunny and a caravan with the flames from a dragster, while New guy James May makes a film about his old Bentley. We take a look at the best offroad vehicle – the Bowler, and we see how tough guy Vinnie Jones performs in the Reasonably Priced Car.

Our Take

Very good, not the series’ peak, but an hour that reminds you why Top Gear works.
