[edit] In this Episode

Main Review: Having decided not to waste the show's taxpayer-funded budget on international airfares, Jeremy travels to Detroit to test the new Ford GT, calling it "the first proper supercar ever made in America." After Ford's failure to recreate the magic of the original GT40 with the later GT70 and the "horrid" GT90, Ford has looked to the past for their new offering.

Studio Segment: Richard looks at the Ford Visos concept car.

Review: James tries out the new BMW 5-Series, which, although better than the old 5-Series on paper, with lots of new technology, has a controversial new look.

Star in a Reasonably Priced Car: Despite having been killed in a car crash, Martin Kemp talks about his love of Porsche 911's and posts a time of 1:54.0.

Review: To find out if all diesel cars are now ok, Jeremy does one lap of the M25 in a Volkswagen Lupo diesel, and ends up with a Golden Cock.

News: Women complaining about their men's love of cars; Extending your central locking range using your head; Insane Saudis.

Review: Richard extolls the virtues of the Porsche 911 GT3, even though it has its engine at the wrong end, and The Stig takes it around a wet track in 1:27.2.

Stig Challenge: The Stig joins the Royal Navy, and attempts to reach 100mph on the 200m deck of the HMS Invincible in the nitrous-injected Top Gear Jag.
