Top Gear - Season 8, Episode 6 - July 16th, 2006
In this episode:
Jeremy compares three hot saloon cars - the Ford Mondeo ST220, the Mazda 6 MPS, and the Vauxhall Vectra VXR followed by the Stig giving them all a lap time
The Top Gear crew go on a caravan (camper trailer) trip to try and figure out what the appeal of it is
Richard sees how fast a Formula 1 car can go indoors
SIARPC: Actor Brian Cox

great episode!

if i'm not mistaken, it's the one where clarkson sets the camper on fire and hamster gets harassed by an ogre!

Thanks, I've been wanting to see that episode again, ever since I bought the car. Faster than the Esprit, wow!

 

[Super Shredder]

so all Jeremy needs to do is buy a CF grille!

I like how it is faster than a CTS-V.

I take it the MPS europe version is slower than the mazdaspeed version?

Only 256 bhp when ours have 274 ?? Prob could have gotten a better lap time with the faster version.

The Stig is worth 20+ hp easy.
