Hammond likens it to the much-loved Monaro in terms of its way of marrying muscular American power to easily controllable handling, and also the TVR Sagaris - though when pushed, he admitted this was because it broke down several times. The Stig manages to take it to a time of 1:28.2. During the studio segment of the review, Clarkson "discovers" a tooth-whitening kit in the Marcos, to which Hammond's reply was: "IT'S A PLANT!!!". News: The group reviews stupid automotive accessories such as a tie with Skoda written on it, a cheap aftermarket, battery powered parking sensor and a alarm that goes off to remind you not to put the wrong type of fuel in your car, which goes off any time the alarm's sensor detects light. Star in a reasonably priced car: F1 and IndyCar champion Nigel Mansell takes the lead on the F1 lap board with a 1:44.6. Mansell's time proves a theory from The Stig that the Liana could garner a 1:44 lap time. Challenge: The Stig compared the drivetrains of RR layout vs. 4WD on the Porsche 997 on an indoor exhibition rally track of the World Rally Championship at Millennium Stadium to settle a debate by Porsche fans. The Carrera 4 was half a second faster, but according to James May the Stig said the 2WD Carrera was nicer to drive. Main Race: Hammond and May once again attempted to beat Clarkson in a race across Europe using transport other than a car. This time, as May had almost earned himself a pilot's licence, their chosen mode of transport was a Cessna 182 , hired from West London Aero Club. After an initial shaky start because of May's insistence on lengthy pre-flight checks and a circuitous route towards Nice, France to avoid mountains exceeding the plane's flight ceiling, they made good time on Jeremy, but were forced to make an early landing and travel the remainder of the journey by Eurostar as May was not licensed to fly after nightfall. Once again, Clarkson won, aided by his 1001 PS Bugatti Veyron supercar, reaching the top of the Natwest Tower before the other two. At the top of the tower he commented that his victory was hollow because he would have to live the rest of his life knowing he would never own the Veyron or experience its power again, but he soon forgot about it when he and Hammond started laughing at James's disgruntlement.. }
