Jeremy finds a touch of the night in the new Porsche 911 Turbo, The Stig tears up the track in an insanely-tuned Mercedes SL, and Richard and James make one small stumble for man as they attempt to build a working space shuttle out of a Reliant Robin. Plus, Hot Fuzz actor Simon Pegg is the Star In A Reasonably Priced Car.

Sounds good images/smilies/wink.gif

upyourego · February 9th, 2007, 09:19 AM

I'm looking forward to this one - I think it's going to be as good as the Aqua Cars episode (hopefully).

SL65 · February 9th, 2007, 09:48 AM

Finally we get to see the 911 Turbo on TG!! Its too late, now I want to see the GT3 images/smilies/tongue.gif

Stiggy in the Brabus SL should be insane images/smilies/burnrubber.gif

No lambo yet... images/smilies/sad.gif

Oh well, 911 turbo atleast!

'CruiserMan · February 9th, 2007, 11:08 AM

Talk of the 911 turbo has got me thinking... if Porsche was to make a new 911 GT2, where on the powerboard do you think it'd get?

Donington · February 9th, 2007, 01:31 PM

I think this may well be the best of the series

Expe · February 9th, 2007, 10:26 PM

Jeremy and Porsche reviews are always interesting! Should be great.

Dsemaj · February 9th, 2007, 11:17 PM

This sounds great- especially with Simon Pegg.

kennyzm · February 10th, 2007, 12:02 PM

This sounds like a great episode. The Porsche 911 turbo is an great car, and I hope Clarkson finds this just as god as Jason on fifth gear.

Hope the track is dry, so we get a fast lap. It should be in the range of 1:22 - 1:23 in Stigs hands, maby faster...

But why is Top Gear so late out whit this test, fifth gear did this test a long time ago...

david_gavin · February 10th, 2007, 02:11 PM

Simon Pegg again! images/smilies/clap.gif

(sort of)

dophoto · February 10th, 2007, 02:37 PM

They would of had it out b4 or just after Fifth Gear. But cause of the accident all their reviews are late, compared to the current market. Plus they would of filmed it ages ago as well.
Like if u look at the road work thing they did in the first episode the date on the board was like September.

The Stig is going to review a car? how is the Stig going to do that? Through a series of nods and obsene hand gestures?
Like this?

Atmikes · February 11th, 2007, 02:29 PM

a car review by The Stig?

"Some say his blood is more flammable than methanol and his left foot is made of radioactive material!"

Looks like a fun episode (at last!)

Oh, I just though of another wonderful 25 page flame fest argument.

What if the 911 Turbo posts a slower lap time then the Corvette Z06? images/smilies/mrgreen.gif

nomix · February 11th, 2007, 05:51 PM

This sounds awsome, to be honest. Really look forward to the SL, and the Reliant.

Love it.

Bubs360 · February 11th, 2007, 06:04 PM

I look foward espeically to the Reliant Robin launch, but the whole episode sounds like a good watch.

Loomy · February 11th, 2007, 08:10 PM

Sounds like a good blend between cocking about and serious(ish) car reviews images/smilies/thumbsup.gif

I imagine they would argue that the alignment of the stars hurt the performance of the turbo while the z06 had been fitted with illegal tires made of dark matter and that it was altogethor irrelevent and the z06 "doesn't work on the road"

Or heads might just explode images/smilies/lol.gif
