images/smilies/dancing_mouse.gif Yey, welcome back Top Gear!!! images/smilies/dancing_mouse.gif

TBH I'm a bit frustrated they yet again have to feature an XK (even if it is the R mode) and I'm sure Jeremy will just love it, but I would have preferred something TG haven't tested yet like the new GT3 for example.

The petrol bit will be interesting, I mean - "How hard could it be?" images/smilies/wink.gif

Oh God it'll be good to finally to see some NEW TG - I've been killing myself watching old eps images/smilies/lol.gif

Jamie Oliver once again ? he already came to the show in the 2nd or 3rd series if I remember well. Though that was good having gambon once again so it's maybe it's going to be a good one as well images/smilies/wink.gif

Looks like they opted to just make it part of an episode which is best IMO. I mean, hard to fill a whole hour with just crash footage...
