Episode Description

Jeremy does a very cheap review of the new BMW X6. Later in the show James reviews the Vauxhall Insignia VXR and brings along someone very important but rather unknown who helped design all of UK's motorway signs.

Episode Introduction

"Tonight, the stupidest car in the world. A Vauxhall you might actually like. And who has won what in the Top Gear awards ceremony?"

Stig Introduction

"Some say that he has to take his shoes off with an Allen key. And that his new year's resolution is to eat fewer mice. All we know is, he's called The Stig."
