Hadn't forgotten

But according to the TV Guide, it's episode 5/6 so next week will be the last in the series.

Last in the series? Geez.. it can't be. The series seems to be getting shorter and shorter.

Thanks for reminder - althought I hadn't forgotten

LOL it's episode 5 out of 6 Adam, so it's a swing and a miss on that one. But this week, you're quite correct its the Bugatti featuring tonight, lucky git Mr. Clarkson gets to drive it (wish I could have a go!) whilst Hammond and May try and beat him to the destination in a light aeroplane... piloted by May apparently! Had to laugh, the TV guide magazine that comes with the Daily Mail had, under the description of tonight's show, that the 'plane would be piloted by Captain Slow

This series does seem much shorter than previous ones though, only 6 episodes and I'm sure previous series have been more like 9 or 11? My guess is that they wanted to shorten the series and finish it before Christmas takes over the schedules

which is both a good idea and a real shame! I hope they make up for it by having 14 programmes (and more of the lovely Sabine) in the following run of shows! The only other thing I can think of is that Jezza injured his back last series so maybe they've not been able to film as much as they would normally?

Either way, it's sorely missed when it's not on, I have to go hunting around on UK People and UK Docs channels to get my fix on a Sunday morning/afternoon

Right, enough yammering... 5 minutes

What a great episode and a legend of a programe, I'd give anything to go round the track as a passenger with the Stig

And it's not next week because of the bloody snooker, or Billiards as they called it

it's the week after!

what a beatufill machine the bugati is.... wow-wee...

I found the insurance guy funny when he phone to get a quote....
"is it a rover" ha ha ha... fukin plonk...
Damn... Im sure insurance for me would be about half mill for that...

Also they cost 5m to make so theyre making a huge loss on these...
Anyone know how many theyre making...cant be many...

I can't believe that they cost Â£5,000,000 to build and they're selling them for Â£840,000 losing Â£4,160,000 on each one!

Great show again, the veyron has to be the coolest car ever, i love the way it started as probably a drunken idea of a 1000bhp car, then they designed the looks, made it look great, then tried to deal with the rest bit by bit as it went, just shows anything can be done if you have the money.

and 0-60 in 2 seconds is just CRAZY??? if you put your foot to the floor it'd probably turn your brains to a pool of mush at the back of your head lol.

p.s thought it was the last episode cause i checked next week and it wasn't on, plus at the start i remember seeing a stupid amount like 1 of 6, time flies when your drooling over zonda's, Veyrons and Ford GT's i guess?

mysteryboy · Post by **mysteryboy** » Mon Dec 12, 2005 12:31 am

Â£100 to fill up a full tank.... and then if you go flat out for 12mins its gonne... hahaha couldn't help but to go... "whaaaaaa"
hehe
