Motoring news and views. The team try to find the perfect car for 17-year-olds, negotiating insurance companies, accident repairs and a music festival car park.
Jeremy Clarkson, Richard Hammond and James May attempt to find the perfect car for 17-year-olds, negotiating insurance companies, accident repairs and a very muddy music festival car park in the process.
Plus Richard goes to Abu Dhabi to test the new Lamborghini Murcielago SV and stages the world's first ever race between the 1000 horsepower Bugatti Veyron and the mighty McLaren F1.
Back in the studio, the Star in a Reasonably Priced Car is Stephen Fry.
