The Toyota Aygo takes on the VW Fox, not on the road, but on the football pitch. Jeremy takes the new Citron C6 racing at Towcester and the Prodrive P2 supercar gets a thrash around the track.



Captain Slow is given a lesson in fast driving by three-time Formula 1 world champion, Sir Jackie Stewart (who apparently isn't a woman) and Sir Michael Gambon is the Star in a Reasonably Priced Car.

Top Gear Show Summary

BBC's hit motoring show is more than just a show to review new cars. Top Gear is essential viewing. Not just for petrol heads, it also has a huge following amongst people with little or no interest in cars - both male and female. This is due to the show's irreverent approach to motoring, the humour and the priceless chemistry between the show's presenters - Jeremy Clarkson, Richard Hammond and James May, with special appearances from the tame racing driver, The Stig.

Don't be fooled, this is not another boring technical car programme, there is carnage, mayhem and fun, with less stuffy mundane car reviews. The boys have races and do crazy things with cars - anything from driving them into swimming pools to setting them on fire!
