- Top_Gear_(series_18) shortsummary "Challenge: A road trip through Lecce in Italy, attempting to find which mid-engined supercar is better than a Ferrari 458 Italia. Hammond chose a Noble M600, May a McLaren MP4-12C and Clarkson a Lamborghini Aventador. The team begin by trying to find out how fast they dare to go and the fuel consumption at such a speed by performing top speed runs at the Nardò Ring, which turned out that Hammond did 204.8 mph and Clarkson got 204.3 miles per hour and May for 201.6 mph. The trio then head to Rome to find a restaurant at the central of the city, a challenge that May won as Clarkson had to find a parking space and Hammond's car had failed during the drive at the Italian countryside. Finally, the trio had to take part in the time trial challenge, in which that all must set their fastest time around the Imola Grand Prix track, Autodromo Enzo e Dino Ferrari. Adding spice to their challenge, The Stig's "Italian cousin" had set a fast time in a Ferrari 458 that they must beat, a 1:56.6. After learning the track and having a brief contemplation of the dangers of the fast, narrow circuit as well as noting the Formula One drivers that had accidents or even died there, the trio began their time trial the next day. Through various mishaps and tumbles, the three all completed their fastest timed lap at the end of the day. Of the three,May was the slowest, posting a time of 2:06.4, Hammond was next, with 2:03.3 as his best, and Clarkson was the fastest, with a time of 1:59.1. News: The boys look at highlights of cars to expect in 2012. They also tell everyone what happened to the cars from the India Special. The trio then talk about a man who has failed the theory part of the British driving test 92 times, which causes Clarkson to pull out a book on said topic, quoting various trivial questions in it. Alfa Romeo and Maserati are both about to reveal their new cars. Clarkson then quotes a report stating that one's driving ability would diminish whilst suffering a flu, and driving whilst taking flu medication "is the same" as driving under the influence of cocaine. After rebuking claims that driving while doing something else is difficult to such a point that one cannot concentrate, the trio then trades off various quips about doing something else whilst driving, up to saying that a woman who has been pulled over for "causing herself to have pleasure" while driving. Star In A Reasonably Priced Car: Black Eyed Peas frontman will.i.am, who set a time of 1:49.4, with an automatic car, in the wet.".
- Top_Gear_(series_18) shortsummary "Feature: Hammond and Finnish world rally driver Toni Gardemeister race Yves Rossy, the world's first jet propelled man, in a Skoda Fabia S2000 around an eight-mile special Welsh Rally Stage. Yves wins the race by a matter of seconds. Note: This feature has been taken from Top Gear at the Movies. News: Jeremy discusses food at Little Chef. The trio discuss the new French law which states that drivers must have a breathalyser in their cars, show a photo of James's Fiat Panda parked in the loading bay at the BBC, and finally Jeremy and James show the footage of their "do-while-you-drive" race around the test track, in which Clarkson attempts to sew on a button while driving, May attempting to complete a lap whilst in a sleeping bag in a Suzuki Swift. Review: Clarkson tests the Mercedes-Benz C63 AMG Black Edition and the Maserati GranTurismo MC Stradale. He claims that whilst both cars are good fun on track, but on the day-to-day basis, the Maserati's gearbox is awful in auto mode, the racing harnesses are too tight 'as if it was taken from S&M Catalogue', while the abysmal ride of the Mercedes ruined the whole car. The Maserati set a time of 1.23.1 and the Mercedes C63 Black, despite its tendency to kick its tail out, set a faster lap time of 1.21.0 Feature: Clarkson and May pay a final tribute to Saab Automobile as a send-off to sixty years of production.

- Top_Gear_(series_18) shortsummary "Review: Hammond reviews the BMW M5 F10. He compares it to a BMW M1 and discusses the advances made between both models. Although not shown on screen, Clarkson informs the audience that it completed a lap of the test track in wet conditions in 1:29.2. News: Clarkson discusses a new Bentley 4x4 which he believes is ideal for the premiership footballer, the trio discuss the new Lamborghini Aventador J, which has no roof or windscreen, and Clarkson views his outrage on how loud emergency sirens can be. F1 Star in a Reasonably Priced Car: Kimi Räikkönen talks about his return to F1, and then completes a wet lap of the track in the Suzuki Liana in 1:46.1. Feature: May's childhood dreams come true when he is given the chance to drive a £5.6 million Ferrari 250 GT California, which is owned by radio DJ Chris Evans. He takes it for a drive in Windsor Park, and claims that after all the years he has waited, driving it was not a disappointment. Star in a Reasonably Priced Car: Ex-Guns N' Roses guitarist Slash completes a lap of the track in 1:49.8 . He is also present at the end of the show, standing on the Toyota Hilux plinth playing the series out with his version of the Top Gear theme song. Challenge: The trio attempt to prove you can go Rallycross motor racing for less than it costs to play golf. Clarkson invests in a BMW 328i, Hammond a Citroën Saxo VTS and May a Toyota MR2. Hammond is the most successful out of the three, coming third in two heats and coming second in his final. Clarkson finishes last and second last in his two heats, before winning the first final and being allowed to take part in Hammond's final, where he finished third after a battle with Hammond.

- Top_Gear_(series_18) shortsummary "Review: May reviews the Vauxhall Corsa Nürburgring Edition. He praises the handling of the Corsa, but then claims that the ride was awful and continued the rest of his review with the new Fiat Panda, much to Clarkson's dismay. The Corsa went round the track in 1.31.0 . Challenge: Clarkson and Hammond direct a movie chase for the remake of The Sweeney, with Ray Winstone and Plan B. In the process, Hammond resurrects the "car cannon" from the Car Darts challenge and wrecks a Ford Focus ST, and Clarkson, doing a power slide, blows up a caravan and damages one of the Jaguar XFR. However, their action has made director Nick Love so furious that he sprayed the word "Scum" on Hammond's Porsche 911 Carrera S and "Tosser" on Clarkson's Mercedes-Benz CLK63 AMG Black Series. Although the segment was a spoof, the Top Gear production team and presenters assisted with planning and filming the real car chase scene from the film. Clarkson, Hammond and May were credited in the film as stunt performers. Star In A Reasonably Priced Car: Ryan Reynolds does a 1:43.7, faster than Tom Cruise.".
