[edit] In this Episode
Review: Clarkson reviewed the Citroën Berlingo, which he said was an affordable small car with character and great storage space.
Review: He also compared the Pagani Zonda C12 S 7.3 and Lamborghini Murciélago. He loved the Zonda and called it the king of supercars. Clarkson then introduces The Stig, whose sole purpose is to post lap times. The Zonda achieved a 1:23 around the track while the Murciélago had a 1:29.
Review: Hammond reviewed a Mazda 6, Mazda's attempt at a sports sedan. It was surprisingly tight, but still not an amazing sports sedan.
News: Ford GT40 Concept, Fiat Stilo Estate, new Nissan Micra, Smart Roadster, Bentley Continental GT, and Clarkson's opinions on Formula 1.
Challenge: The Stig had to drive fast enough to be undetected by a speed camera. After attempts in a Honda Civic Type-R (126 mph) and a Mercedes CL55 AMG (148 mph), he finally did it at 170 mph in a TVR Tuscan S.
Star in a Reasonably Priced Car: Harry Enfield, who sets a very slow lap of 2:01 in the Suzuki Liana.
Challenge: Clarkson looks into biodiesel, and tests the usage of biodiesel with a Volvo 740.
