Matches in DBpedia 2014 for { ?s ?p Review: Richard Hammond tests the new Lamborghini Murciélago LP670-4 SV on closed public roads in Abu Dhabi and has a drag race against a Mercedes-Benz SLR McLaren 722 Edition, the Mercedes being the winner. Then The Stig takes the Lamborghini around the track and sets a lap time of 1:19.0 exactly the same time as the Enzo Ferrari. Clarkson removes the time of the FXX from the board , as it had slick tyres for the lap and was therefore not road legal. Challenge: The three go out and buy cars that are perfect for 17 year-olds, their parents and the insurance companies with a budget of £2500 including insurance. Jeremy buys a Volvo 940 Turbo Estate, which he describes as "The perfect car for any 17 year-old." Richard buys a Hyundai Scoupe and James buys a Volkswagen Golf Mk III. The first challenge was to modify their cars accordingly in order to do what any 17 year-old would want to do — attract girls: Richard fits a body kit to his car, Jeremy fits a waterbed covered in animal skin in the back of his car, hand-paints "TURBO" on the sides of his Volvo and May buys a stereo, which Hammond and Clarkson sabotage by inserted Rock Music CD, setting the volume to full then gluing all the controls. The second challenge involved packing up a camp site and leaving it, which May and Hammond complete, but Clarkson can't get his Volvo up the steep hill out of the field . The third challenge was to get the cars up a driveway at 3am without alerting the owners inside: Hammond scores 50.4 decibels by quietly parking his Scoupe near the door. Clarkson scores 66.1 decibels after crashing his Volvo into a Summer house then attempting to reverse it out, further damaging the Summer house but oddly not waking up the owners. But on May's attempt, Clarkson turned on the Golf's full-volume stereo by remote, causing the owners of the house to wake up. May's resulting score is 98.7 decibels. The fourth challenge is mending their cars after they'd been overturned and a "speed" challenge which was judged by three teenage girls. As the points are totalled up, Clarkson takes away all of Hammond's points just because he crashed into the first obstacle in the speed challenge. Clarkson and May both reveal that the teenage girls awarded them 0 points for their attempted handbrake turns, to which Clarkson then asks female members of the audience why they are not turned on by handbrake turns. Clarkson is declared the winner after evaluating the scores, beating May by 3 points. News: They once again discuss about the new government scrappage system and the new V8-powered Ariel Atom 500. Star in a Reasonably Priced Car: Stephen Fry is the star in the reasonably priced car and sets a time of 1:51.0. Clarkson gives him a "Hot" adding that the people of Top Gear are responsible for that heat. Feature: A drag race on closed public roads between two of the fastest cars in the world, the McLaren F1 and the Bugatti Veyron , the Bugatti being the winner. In the series 17 Episode 4, it was revealed that the McLaren F1 used in this race was borrowed from Rowan Atkinson, which Clarkson and Atkinson discussed about this in the interview in Star in a Reasonably Priced Car session.. }
