THIS EPISODE AIRS AN HOUR LATE AT 9PM GMT!!

Quote:
Motoring magazine show. Jeremy, Richard and James enter a 24 hour endurance race in what turns out to be one of their toughest challenges to date. James tries the new Fiat 500 on the mean streets of Budapest and the Ferrari 430 Scuderia hammers around the test track.

This is the one I've been waiting for! images/smilies/biggrin.gif Woohoooooo!

Britcar 24, plus Scuderia, PLUS James testing a small car around a European city! Sounds awesome!


EDIT> Also, RadioTimes suggests it's 9pm-10pm, which is slightly strange. Maybe there's some post-watershed type stuff in there! images/smilies/lol.gif

Where exactly in Budapest will he be testing the 500? Maybe I can recognize some places from when I went to the Hungaroring...

Very much looking forward for the review of the Fiat, can't be bothered wit the review of another special version of the Ferrari F430 which - let's face it - essentially will be a little bit faster and much more expensive in the end.

I can't wait to see the fellas' faces in the middle of the night at the Britcar 24h... That segment will surely take up more than half of the program, and I won't mind it, because 24h races have a certain something about them. Especially if you finish them, which, of course, they managed to do. I wonder... have they used up all ofthe harvested biodiesel?

If you want to see car-unfriendly towns, come in the cities in Romania's south region. Especially in Bucharest. Now THAT'S a car-unfriendly city. Every day in the news there are jams, angry drivers, stupid drivers as well... Thankfully, I live in a city that is a bit more forgiving to the car.
