After 1 year hope it's worth the wait!

And Hammond can't see over the windscreen of the Huayra

Anyone catch the MSRP of the P-45?

[IntelligentOperator]

8000 £

Hope not spoilers again

The last group of "guests" with the P-45 were great. I saw a lot of them when I lived there, which made the connection even better.

Do you mean dragon's den?

All in all it did look a bit forced, though.

Guess the mechanics are a bit rusty after so long.

Can't wait for the Egypt one and the multipla for pensioners

That's with the 10 day/100K feet warranty, right?

Yes, didn't want to spoil it for anyone.

Got caught up. Pretty good episode.

I have to disagree with Hammond though - I think the Zonda (weird as it is) looks much better than the Huayra. There's something about the very snub nose of the Huayra that just seems awkward. The active aero bits also look a bit strange when deployed - I'm sure they work wonders aerodynamically but they're not pleasing to the eye.

All the best,
Andrew.

I think Huayra will get better with time, when they'll change the front and the key and I expected the flaps to be a bit more independent left to right.
The part with the dragons was a bit cringeworthy and the whole episode was good but at no point memorable as usual with the first. I bet the last will be fantastic.

Completely agree. I much prefer the Zonda (especially the F and up versions, with the 760RS top of the tree!) as it's a much rawer car. Harry Metcalfe put it perfectly; think of the Zonda as a GT3 version and the Huayra as a Turbo...

I couldn't believe how fast it is though.

The P45 part was utterly hilarious, especially the last bit ''sorry I can't understand what you're saying''...that had me in tears . (Q: ''Why are your sleeves wet?'' A: ''Because they've water on them...'')

I wonder if anyone will end up buying that Bentley - one careful owner!!!

Never was so bored in all my life.

Really puts into perspective how good Chris Harris, Jay Leno, Harry Metcalfe are.

Old jokes rehashed .......... The minute I saw Jeremy's car I knew he would be driving it in a building .....again. For about 30 minutes. 30 minutes during which you could watch some original comedy.

This isn't a show for enthusiasts. It formula TV for the masses. They are talented, but they are just churning it out. Total Mush.

At least on the iPlayer you can flick through and see if there is anything worth watching in it.
