Lets see which bit of the lotus breaks this week then

I still have my bet on the gearbox unless they cheated and spent the last 6 months manufacturing a custom one
Looking forward to the DB9 Volante feature from Jason.

I look forward to see the NSX. Pretty cool car in my book and I like watching "old" cars getting tested.

I dunno how Plato can say anything good about the Volante since he drove the Zonda and also because not many journalist seem to like the way the Volante drives. But we will see.

I hope the DB9 Volante doesn't break down and "force" the 5th gear crew to stop filming like with CCR :roll:

If the previous show - with the CCR - couldn't shine, i don't see how this one will... I hope i'm wrong though

I doubt they will have the Lotus ready for Tiff to drive. They will probably stretch out the story over many episodes. Either way they'll never top last weeks episode after the sound of the Zonda F :violin:
