Motoring magazine. Jeremy Clarkson and James May play a rather unusual game of rugby and Richard Hammond goes to Mexico for a nervous road test.
Jeremy Clarkson subjects the new Kia Cee'd to a thorough road test involving eels, curry, a rock legend, an American cop and a rather unusual game of rugby involving James May.
Meanwhile, Richard Hammond is in Mexico for a nervous road test of the Mastretta sports car, a trio of hot hatchbacks tear it up on the test track and another top celebrity takes their turn as the star in the Reasonably Priced Car.
