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.
