If Clarkson tests it he'll have it understeering everywhere.

Episode was a return to form IMO, funny without being farcical. Flames out of the Aventador were
It has an LSD though so presumably he'd have to really go mad with it to get it understeering? The review on the Top Gear website was quite positive, so perhaps they might actually give it a proper review.

Surprising how intelligent will.i.am was...thought he would be another cunt like dappy.
I personally thought when they were speaking to the cars, it was fucking cringe worthy.

Liked it but I thought the 3 super cars all looked a bit crap the same colour. Mclaren for me.

Yeah that was probably the worst part of the whole episode. Just wanted it to end.

Dad put it on earlier so watched it again in HD

Will is surprisingly interesting, I thought. Fully expected him to be a massive Hollywood chav but seemed quite the opposite, apart from the clothes.

I personally though Will I am sounded a bit daft, like he had some money to throw at some things so he was just doing that.

The fact his car looks like a kit car replica of an 80s Aston doesn't help the business case. He'd be better talking about the infrastructure he'd put in place and the job opportunities for the people, and the markets he's looking to enter rather than just having a picture of a car that no one will buy.

If will I am wasn't in the studio and his car had popped up in the news, they would have all taken the piss out of it and had a good giggle and said its a monstrosity.

I liked the idea of him having his car company building his cars in the area he was from. Was a nice touch.

The Lamborghini made the McLaren and Noble look very ordinary. Sounded amazing. That's a proper supercar.

I agree with Matty G - I quite enjoyed it when Clarkson went a bit mad and was all "why don't we have LASERS to heat the water off the windscreen???"

Pete - This is Noble, so probably
