the MC12, F430, CCR, and all the new cars might be featured. Maybe clarkson can get a nice drive in the new F1 cars?

Those would be nice to see, plus TVR Sagaris, Lotus Elise or Exige. I don't think JC can fit in an F1:D

Normally it is 1 hour, but in some areas it is cutted to 30 minutes (also here in Germany).

Almost certainly a rip into Transport2000 after their recent drive to have Top Gear replaced with "Third Gear" :)

The Speed 12 is apparently going to make a TV appearance.

I hope it is TG rather than 5th Gear. 5th Gear would probably have Tom Ford saying "Its really fast" over and over, then drive it into a lamp-post.

Lol, Then drive it through a car wash with the windows open, ( atually does it have windows? :rolleyes: )

I think if the speed 12 were to go round the track it'd come close but not beat the enzo, i think there would be too much oversteer for the TG track.

The 650lb ft of torque may destroy part of Guildford aswell.

I see it on BBC World in Mexico and only get the half hour version :( Come to think of it, ALL of the programs on BBC World are a half hour long.
