About

After years of speculation about the identity of our tame racing driver, the Stig finally removes his helmet in front of a studio audience. James and Richard find themselves racing Royal Mail as they attempt to drive from Penzance to the Orkneys faster than a letter, while Jeremy puts the new Lotus Evora to the test out on the track. Richard heads to Abu Dhabi to test the new Lamborghini Murcielago while Jeremy and James attempt to make Volkswagen advertisement, with rather predictable results! Plus, sprinting superstar Usain Bolt finally sets a time that matters.

Back in the studio the star in the reasonably priced car is Twittering national treasure Stephen Fry.

Jeremy Clarkson, Richard Hammond and James May immerse themselves in the world of classic cars to find out if they really are, as the anoraks claim, more fun than modern machinery. Armed with a budget of £3000 each they attempt to buy a pre-1982 car at auction. Then the trio are sent off to Majorca to take part in one very big challenge - a seemingly unfathomable classic car rally. Bona fide rock God Brian Johnson is the star in the Reasonably Priced Car.
