1
00:00:01,480 --> 00:00:04,400
(orchestral music)
2
00:00:06,640 --> 00:00:09,640
(upbeat rock music)
3
00:00:17,680 --> 00:00:21,520
(upbeat rock music continues)
4
00:00:23,720 --> 00:00:26,920
(audience applauding)
5
00:00:34,280 --> 00:00:38,120
(audience applauding continues)
6
00:00:38,200 --> 00:00:40,040
- Hello, welcome to "Top Gear."
7
00:00:40,120 --> 00:00:42,520
We're back from our World Cup break.
8
00:00:42,600 --> 00:00:43,360
And, to be honest,
9
00:00:43,440 --> 00:00:45,480
we've found ourselves in
a little bit of a pickle.
10
00:00:45,560 --> 00:00:46,320
- See, the thing is,
11
00:00:46,400 --> 00:00:49,240
we have to record this week's
episode way in advance.
12
00:00:49,320 --> 00:00:51,160
So we've got no idea who's won.
13
00:00:51,240 --> 00:00:52,000
- Not a clue.
14
00:00:52,080 --> 00:00:54,040
So we're gonna read you our bets.
15
00:00:54,120 --> 00:00:56,400
First, let's go with the favourites.
16
00:00:56,480 --> 00:00:57,960
Congratulations, Brazil.
17
00:00:58,040 --> 00:00:59,000
Well done.
18
00:00:59,080 --> 00:01:00,520
(audience applauding)
19
00:01:00,600 --> 00:01:01,840
You've got it again.
20
00:01:01,920 --> 00:01:03,240
You've got it again.
(Freddie laughing)
21
00:01:03,320 --> 00:01:04,440
Who else?
22
00:01:04,520 --> 00:01:06,640
- Congratulations, Germany.
23
00:01:06,720 --> 00:01:08,640
(audience booing and laughing)
24
00:01:08,720 --> 00:01:09,800
- Ooh.
25
00:01:09,880 --> 00:01:10,640
No, no, no, no, no, no.
- Too soon?
26
00:01:10,720 --> 00:01:11,480
Presume penalties?
27
00:01:11,560 --> 00:01:12,440
(Freddie and Chris laughing)
28
00:01:12,520 --> 00:01:16,680
- And I guess, everyone,
there's always a chance.
29
00:01:16,760 --> 00:01:19,160
It might have happened.
30
00:01:19,240 --> 00:01:20,760
England!
31
00:01:20,840 --> 00:01:24,000
(audience cheering)
32
00:01:24,080 --> 00:01:25,480
- It's not, is it?
- It's not, it's not.
33
00:01:25,560 --> 00:01:26,320
- It's not, it's not.
- It is not.
34
00:01:26,400 --> 00:01:27,600
- Lads, don't forget Wales.
35
00:01:27,680 --> 00:01:28,680
- What?
- Don't forget Wales.
36
00:01:28,760 --> 00:01:29,720
- Let's not go mad.
37
00:01:29,800 --> 00:01:30,560
(audience laughing)
38
00:01:30,640 --> 00:01:31,800
Right, what we do know is,
39
00:01:31,880 --> 00:01:35,440
it's our last episode of the
series and it's a belter.
40
00:01:35,520 --> 00:01:36,720
Later on, we're gonna give you
41
00:01:36,800 --> 00:01:38,640
some useful car buying advice,
42
00:01:38,720 --> 00:01:42,280
but we kick off with the
best noise in the world.
43
00:01:43,160 --> 00:01:46,120
(gentle music)
44
00:01:46,200 --> 00:01:48,960
(engine zooming)
45
00:01:58,480 --> 00:02:01,800
(gentle music continues)
46
00:02:01,880 --> 00:02:04,640
(engine zooming)
47
00:02:08,880 --> 00:02:11,640
(engine roaring)
48
00:02:17,240 --> 00:02:20,160
That is the sound of a Ferrari V12.
49
00:02:23,680 --> 00:02:28,440
(exhales) That is the sound of Italy.
50
00:02:28,520 --> 00:02:30,520
And what sound it is.
51
00:02:31,160 --> 00:02:33,920
(engine roaring)
52
00:02:36,040 --> 00:02:38,600
A sound that lives in the heart
53
00:02:40,240 --> 00:02:42,240
of the Daytona SP3.
54
00:02:43,040 --> 00:02:43,800
(engine roaring)
55
00:02:43,880 --> 00:02:45,880
Oh, come on.
56
00:02:46,680 --> 00:02:47,440
(rock music)
57
00:02:47,520 --> 00:02:51,480
Born out of the Prancing
Horse's special project stable,
58
00:02:51,560 --> 00:02:56,360
Maranello's latest cost
1.8 million pounds.
59
00:02:56,440 --> 00:02:58,280
And its only purpose in life
60
00:02:58,360 --> 00:03:03,360
is to celebrate this glorious
marque's glorious history.
61
00:03:03,880 --> 00:03:07,080
The V12 is Ferrari.
62
00:03:07,160 --> 00:03:10,520
The first ever road car
they built some 75 years ago
63
00:03:10,600 --> 00:03:12,760
was powered by a V12,
64
00:03:12,840 --> 00:03:15,560
and they've been building them ever since.
65
00:03:16,720 --> 00:03:19,760
This one is the most powerful of the lot.
66
00:03:19,840 --> 00:03:23,080
829 horsepower.
67
00:03:24,680 --> 00:03:26,680
Don't mind if I do.
68
00:03:27,040 --> 00:03:31,240
(engine roaring)
(intense orchestral music)
69
00:03:31,320 --> 00:03:33,320
Whoa, whoa.
70
00:03:35,760 --> 00:03:37,760
Listen to that.
71
00:03:42,200 --> 00:03:46,520
As celebrations go, that is a good start.
72
00:03:46,600 --> 00:03:48,240
(gentle music)
73
00:03:48,320 --> 00:03:51,120
But where the real surprise comes
74
00:03:51,200 --> 00:03:53,480
is in the way they've
put this car together.
75
00:03:54,920 --> 00:03:57,960
There are no turbos,
batteries, or e-motors here.
76
00:03:59,080 --> 00:04:01,400
No four-wheel drive, either.
77
00:04:01,480 --> 00:04:05,880
Nor even the usual flappy
bits of active aero.
78
00:04:05,960 --> 00:04:10,560
No, the Daytona is unusually old school.
79
00:04:12,600 --> 00:04:14,880
(engine zooming)
(light orchestral music)
80
00:04:14,960 --> 00:04:18,040
This is Ferrari getting
a little bit nostalgic,
81
00:04:18,120 --> 00:04:21,000
which, to be honest, isn't very Ferrari.
82
00:04:21,080 --> 00:04:24,080
They're all about the
future and advancement
83
00:04:24,160 --> 00:04:26,640
and developing the next bit of tech.
84
00:04:26,720 --> 00:04:28,480
But just this once,
85
00:04:28,560 --> 00:04:31,320
they've took a little
trip down memory lane.
86
00:04:34,040 --> 00:04:36,720
Sure, 0 to 60 in less than three seconds,
87
00:04:36,800 --> 00:04:40,400
and a 211-mile-an-hour top speed
88
00:04:40,480 --> 00:04:42,480
are all very modern numbers.
89
00:04:43,560 --> 00:04:45,840
Dear me.
90
00:04:45,920 --> 00:04:48,760
But the attitude of the car
91
00:04:48,840 --> 00:04:51,600
is much more old-fashioned.
92
00:04:51,680 --> 00:04:53,080
The steering is a little bit weightier
93
00:04:53,160 --> 00:04:54,640
than the usual Ferrari
94
00:04:54,720 --> 00:04:57,360
and they've engineered a bit
of a thump on the gear change,
95
00:04:57,440 --> 00:05:00,200
that gives it a real old school feel.
96
00:05:01,960 --> 00:05:03,960
And check this out for retro.
97
00:05:05,120 --> 00:05:07,120
Pop-up headlights.
98
00:05:07,720 --> 00:05:09,240
(Paddy chuckles)
99
00:05:09,320 --> 00:05:10,720
I mean, it's close enough, isn't it?
100
00:05:10,800 --> 00:05:12,440
Come on.
101
00:05:12,520 --> 00:05:14,480
(engine zooming)
102
00:05:14,560 --> 00:05:17,160
And as for the rest of
the way the Daytona looks,
103
00:05:17,240 --> 00:05:20,400
that all comes from Ferrari's deep dive
104
00:05:20,480 --> 00:05:23,240
into the old family albums.
105
00:05:23,320 --> 00:05:26,280
(sweeping orchestral music)
106
00:05:26,360 --> 00:05:30,360
First, you've got that
futuristic slatted tail,
107
00:05:30,440 --> 00:05:35,640
borrowed from the 250 P5 concept of 1968.
108
00:05:35,720 --> 00:05:39,720
The bulging wings with those
side mirrors pushed on top,
109
00:05:39,800 --> 00:05:42,520
a pure historic endurance racer.
110
00:05:43,880 --> 00:05:48,880
In fact, the name, basic shape,
even bits of the interior,
111
00:05:49,320 --> 00:05:53,640
all lead back to the
legendary P330 series cars
112
00:05:53,720 --> 00:05:57,920
that, back in 1967, took
a one, two, three finish
113
00:05:58,000 --> 00:06:01,280
at the 24 Hours of Daytona.
114
00:06:03,920 --> 00:06:06,840
And look at that view over the bonnet.
115
00:06:06,920 --> 00:06:09,680
It makes you feel like
a proper racing driver
116
00:06:09,760 --> 00:06:11,360
from back in the day.
117
00:06:11,440 --> 00:06:14,520
Pop on a crash helmet, a pair of overalls,
118
00:06:14,600 --> 00:06:16,560
couple of laps of Italy,
119
00:06:16,640 --> 00:06:19,680
then back home to England
for tea and crumpets.
120
00:06:19,760 --> 00:06:22,520
(engine roaring)
121
00:06:23,880 --> 00:06:26,400
But while there's no denying
the sense of occasion
122
00:06:26,480 --> 00:06:30,520
the Daytona's stripped-back
retro racer vibes deliver,
123
00:06:30,600 --> 00:06:32,400
in a couple of places,
124
00:06:32,480 --> 00:06:36,160
they might have taken it a bit too far.
125
00:06:36,240 --> 00:06:38,960
For starters, take these seats.
126
00:06:39,040 --> 00:06:41,800
Now when you buy a Daytona,
Ferrari measure you up
127
00:06:41,880 --> 00:06:44,240
and then glue some cushions to the chassis
128
00:06:44,320 --> 00:06:46,680
in the exact right position.
129
00:06:46,760 --> 00:06:49,520
But what happens if your
partner or your mates
130
00:06:49,600 --> 00:06:53,480
doesn't have the exact
same size hips as you?
131
00:06:53,560 --> 00:06:56,080
It's gonna be a very uncomfortable ride.
132
00:06:56,160 --> 00:06:58,680
And then we've got the carbon fibre roof.
133
00:06:58,760 --> 00:07:01,720
Once that's off, it's off.
134
00:07:01,800 --> 00:07:04,040
So if the weather turns
and it starts to rain,
135
00:07:04,120 --> 00:07:05,240
you're gonna get wet,
136
00:07:05,320 --> 00:07:07,400
unless you pop this on,
137
00:07:09,840 --> 00:07:11,960
which isn't very Ferrari.
138
00:07:12,040 --> 00:07:14,800
It's more like you're
going on a camping trip.
139
00:07:14,880 --> 00:07:17,240
Doesn't scream 1.8 million quid, does it?
140
00:07:18,680 --> 00:07:20,360
If we're being honest, though,
141
00:07:20,440 --> 00:07:22,520
none of that actually matters.
142
00:07:22,600 --> 00:07:23,400
(light piano music)
143
00:07:23,480 --> 00:07:26,200
The Daytona's not meant to be practical
144
00:07:26,280 --> 00:07:28,920
in the same way it's not
meant to be the fastest
145
00:07:29,000 --> 00:07:31,320
or the most cutting-edge supercar going.
146
00:07:32,280 --> 00:07:35,320
Really, the best way to think of it
147
00:07:35,400 --> 00:07:39,720
is as a 1.8-million-pound work of art.
148
00:07:40,720 --> 00:07:43,320
It's a portal to another time.
149
00:07:43,400 --> 00:07:45,720
It makes people smile.
150
00:07:45,800 --> 00:07:47,960
And it certainly makes me smile.
151
00:07:49,640 --> 00:07:52,560
(Paddy laughs)
(engine roaring)
152
00:07:52,640 --> 00:07:54,680
But like so many works of art,
153
00:07:54,760 --> 00:07:57,240
the real sadness is that most people
154
00:07:57,320 --> 00:08:00,640
will never get to experience the Daytona.
155
00:08:00,720 --> 00:08:03,120
The 600-odd that Ferrari's building
156
00:08:03,200 --> 00:08:06,880
will all be locked away in
climate-controlled garages,
157
00:08:06,960 --> 00:08:10,160
doomed to be passed
around the 0.1-percenters
158
00:08:10,240 --> 00:08:14,680
as nothing more than investments.
159
00:08:14,760 --> 00:08:19,080
And that is an absolute travesty.
160
00:08:19,160 --> 00:08:21,560
So while I've still got the Daytona
161
00:08:21,640 --> 00:08:23,280
for another couple of hours,
162
00:08:23,360 --> 00:08:25,960
it's time to give a little bit back.
163
00:08:26,040 --> 00:08:29,200
It's time to let the people enjoy it.
164
00:08:29,280 --> 00:08:31,680
(folk music)
165
00:08:33,200 --> 00:08:34,400
Oh, yes.
166
00:08:34,480 --> 00:08:36,480
You can forget UberLUX.
167
00:08:37,120 --> 00:08:40,960
It's time to say ciao to Pad's Cabs.
168
00:08:42,800 --> 00:08:45,760
(sighs) Let's wait for a fare now.
169
00:08:45,840 --> 00:08:47,480
Ciao, ciao.
170
00:08:47,560 --> 00:08:49,560
Hello, yes, grazie.
171
00:08:51,280 --> 00:08:53,960
Well, could be my first
bit of business here.
172
00:08:54,040 --> 00:08:55,560
- Ciao.
- Ciao.
173
00:08:55,640 --> 00:08:57,240
Taxi?
- Grazie.
174
00:08:57,320 --> 00:08:59,280
- In you come, there you go.
175
00:08:59,360 --> 00:09:01,080
Ferrari Daytona.
176
00:09:01,160 --> 00:09:02,360
- Wow.
177
00:09:02,440 --> 00:09:03,280
(engine purrs)
178
00:09:03,360 --> 00:09:04,720
Okay, you ready?
179
00:09:04,800 --> 00:09:06,800
- Ready.
180
00:09:06,880 --> 00:09:09,000
Wow, wow!
(engine roaring)
181
00:09:09,080 --> 00:09:09,880
- Ooh. (laughs)
182
00:09:09,960 --> 00:09:13,600
(Paddy and passenger laughing)
183
00:09:13,680 --> 00:09:15,600
- Ooh, a man of the cloth.
184
00:09:15,680 --> 00:09:17,920
- Taxi?
- Si, Father.
185
00:09:18,000 --> 00:09:20,000
In, get in.
- Grazie.
186
00:09:20,760 --> 00:09:22,480
- Buongiorno.
- Buongiorno.
187
00:09:22,560 --> 00:09:23,840
- Here we go.
188
00:09:23,920 --> 00:09:25,920
(engine roaring)
189
00:09:26,000 --> 00:09:27,280
(Paddy laughs)
190
00:09:27,360 --> 00:09:30,480
So that's two happy
customers up and running.
191
00:09:30,560 --> 00:09:31,440
- Wow.
192
00:09:31,520 --> 00:09:33,000
- I love Ferrari.
193
00:09:33,080 --> 00:09:33,960
- Yeah?
- Yeah.
194
00:09:34,040 --> 00:09:35,600
- Ah.
195
00:09:35,680 --> 00:09:36,680
- The third, though...
196
00:09:36,760 --> 00:09:37,560
Taxi?
197
00:09:37,640 --> 00:09:38,560
(passenger speaking in Italian)
198
00:09:38,640 --> 00:09:40,640
- [Paddy] Will take a
bit more winning over.
199
00:09:40,720 --> 00:09:43,800
It's a bit of a squeeze to get in.
200
00:09:43,880 --> 00:09:45,480
Ah, way.
201
00:09:45,560 --> 00:09:46,560
Whoa. (chuckles)
202
00:09:52,920 --> 00:09:53,640
- Trolley?
203
00:09:53,720 --> 00:09:55,720
- Si, si, si, si, si.
204
00:09:59,240 --> 00:10:01,960
- Oh, god, that's not gonna...
205
00:10:02,040 --> 00:10:02,800
That's not...
206
00:10:02,880 --> 00:10:04,320
That's not gonna work.
207
00:10:04,400 --> 00:10:06,280
(passenger sighs)
208
00:10:06,360 --> 00:10:07,200
All right.
209
00:10:07,280 --> 00:10:12,280
Like all supercars, boot space
in the Daytona is an issue.
210
00:10:14,440 --> 00:10:19,120
But no nonna can resist the Ferrari V12.
211
00:10:20,240 --> 00:10:21,000
(engine purrs)
212
00:10:21,080 --> 00:10:22,120
Ooh.
213
00:10:25,160 --> 00:10:26,480
- Exactly.
214
00:10:26,560 --> 00:10:27,720
Hold on tight.
215
00:10:27,800 --> 00:10:31,000
(engine roaring)
- Ah!
216
00:10:32,360 --> 00:10:35,200
(Paddy chuckling)
217
00:10:36,400 --> 00:10:37,320
- But then, of course,
218
00:10:37,400 --> 00:10:40,080
driving a cab through
a town you don't know,
219
00:10:40,160 --> 00:10:43,200
in a country whose
language you don't speak,
220
00:10:43,280 --> 00:10:46,240
does present a few more challenges.
221
00:10:46,320 --> 00:10:48,080
Um, (speaks in Italian).
222
00:10:50,800 --> 00:10:51,880
- Uh...
223
00:10:51,960 --> 00:10:52,800
- The market.
224
00:10:52,880 --> 00:10:54,880
- Market, si.
225
00:10:55,680 --> 00:10:56,520
Directionie?
226
00:10:56,600 --> 00:10:57,800
- Piazza Duomo.
227
00:10:57,880 --> 00:10:59,720
- Piazza?
- Duomo.
228
00:10:59,800 --> 00:11:01,480
- Duomo.
- Duomo.
229
00:11:01,560 --> 00:11:03,080
- Duomo.
- Duomo.
230
00:11:03,160 --> 00:11:04,080
- Duomo. (chuckles)
231
00:11:07,480 --> 00:11:09,480
- San Bernadino, okay.
232
00:11:10,160 --> 00:11:12,000
Sono Paddy.
233
00:11:12,080 --> 00:11:13,320
- Paddy?
- Paddy.
234
00:11:13,400 --> 00:11:14,960
Sono Paddy.
235
00:11:15,040 --> 00:11:16,280
Name, my name.
- Oh.
236
00:11:16,360 --> 00:11:17,720
- Father, Paddy.
237
00:11:17,800 --> 00:11:19,800
My Italian's coming on a treat.
238
00:11:20,920 --> 00:11:23,600
This is kind of the point of it all,
239
00:11:23,680 --> 00:11:25,880
because with the Daytona,
240
00:11:25,960 --> 00:11:28,760
it really doesn't matter
where you're going.
241
00:11:28,840 --> 00:11:33,840
This car makes any
journey properly special.
242
00:11:34,880 --> 00:11:36,800
This car?
- Si.
243
00:11:36,880 --> 00:11:38,960
- [Paddy] 2 million euros.
244
00:11:39,040 --> 00:11:40,560
- Woo.
- Ooh.
245
00:11:40,640 --> 00:11:41,960
- Oh.
246
00:11:42,040 --> 00:11:43,080
very expense.
247
00:11:43,160 --> 00:11:44,960
- Oh, very. (whistles)
248
00:11:45,040 --> 00:11:49,280
- Too much for common people.
- Too much, too much.
249
00:11:49,360 --> 00:11:51,360
(Paddy and passenger laughing)
250
00:11:51,440 --> 00:11:54,640
0 to 60 miles per hour in
less than three seconds.
251
00:11:54,720 --> 00:11:56,440
- Wow.
- Yeah.
252
00:11:56,520 --> 00:11:57,760
(engine roaring)
253
00:11:57,840 --> 00:11:59,000
- Wow.
254
00:11:59,080 --> 00:12:00,880
Wow.
255
00:12:00,960 --> 00:12:03,120
Ah! (giggling)
256
00:12:03,200 --> 00:12:07,560
- Whoa. (laughing)
257
00:12:07,640 --> 00:12:10,280
- It's so crazy. (laughing)
258
00:12:10,360 --> 00:12:11,640
- [Paddy] It's quick.
259
00:12:11,720 --> 00:12:12,480
- It's a crazy taxi.
260
00:12:12,560 --> 00:12:15,080
- Yeah, it is a crazy taxi, yeah.
261
00:12:15,160 --> 00:12:17,640
(jazzy music)
262
00:12:18,520 --> 00:12:23,600
And this crazy taxi
gets a five-star rating.
263
00:12:23,680 --> 00:12:27,400
- To be in a Ferrari, it's a lovely dream.
264
00:12:27,480 --> 00:12:29,400
- It is beautiful.
265
00:12:29,480 --> 00:12:30,240
- Good to hear.
266
00:12:30,320 --> 00:12:31,800
- I love so much this car.
267
00:12:31,880 --> 00:12:32,960
I fall in love with this car.
268
00:12:33,040 --> 00:12:34,760
- Yeah, I love this car as well.
269
00:12:34,840 --> 00:12:38,160
And here we go.
270
00:12:38,240 --> 00:12:39,160
Fantastic.
271
00:12:39,240 --> 00:12:40,520
- Oh, oh.
- Car seat, here we go.
272
00:12:40,600 --> 00:12:42,360
That's the one.
273
00:12:42,440 --> 00:12:44,040
Oh, watch your head, watch your head.
274
00:12:44,120 --> 00:12:44,840
There we go.
275
00:12:44,920 --> 00:12:45,800
You got everything?
276
00:12:45,880 --> 00:12:47,760
Oh, uh, basket, shopping.
277
00:12:49,640 --> 00:12:52,600
- Si, two minutes.
278
00:12:52,680 --> 00:12:53,880
Okay, here we go.
279
00:12:53,960 --> 00:12:55,600
(engine roaring)
280
00:12:55,680 --> 00:12:58,280
(Paddy speaking in Italian)
281
00:12:58,360 --> 00:13:02,200
(sweeping orchestral music)
282
00:13:02,280 --> 00:13:03,520
There we go.
283
00:13:03,600 --> 00:13:04,760
Thank you very much.
- Thank you so much.
284
00:13:04,840 --> 00:13:06,280
- Oh, lovely.
- Bye-bye, thank you.
285
00:13:06,360 --> 00:13:08,400
- Bye-bye, bye-bye.
286
00:13:08,480 --> 00:13:11,200
(engine roaring)
287
00:13:20,040 --> 00:13:21,480
- It's okay?
- Grazie, grazie.
288
00:13:21,560 --> 00:13:24,360
Thank you, Father, thank you.
289
00:13:24,440 --> 00:13:27,600
So the good people of L'Aquila
290
00:13:27,680 --> 00:13:31,400
have experienced the joy of the Daytona.
291
00:13:32,800 --> 00:13:33,640
Here we go.
292
00:13:33,720 --> 00:13:35,800
- Grazie, grazie, grazie.
293
00:13:37,640 --> 00:13:38,920
Grazie.
294
00:13:39,000 --> 00:13:41,120
(uplifting orchestral music)
295
00:13:41,200 --> 00:13:44,600
And now, there's just one job left to do.
296
00:13:47,360 --> 00:13:49,200
And that's to take this work of art
297
00:13:49,280 --> 00:13:51,680
back to its climate-controlled garage
298
00:13:53,280 --> 00:13:55,640
300 miles away.
299
00:13:57,000 --> 00:14:00,400
Avanti.
300
00:14:00,480 --> 00:14:02,440
(audience applauding)
301
00:14:02,520 --> 00:14:04,880
- That's a lovely car.
- It's nice, that one.
302
00:14:05,920 --> 00:14:06,680
- Ooh.
303
00:14:06,760 --> 00:14:07,920
- Come on, I'm jealous.
- What a Ferrari.
304
00:14:08,000 --> 00:14:09,200
- Jealous, jealous.
- Beautiful car.
305
00:14:09,280 --> 00:14:10,400
Beautiful car.
306
00:14:10,480 --> 00:14:13,760
And honestly, the attention
it got was unbelievable.
307
00:14:13,840 --> 00:14:15,000
- But do you think the looks are enhanced
308
00:14:15,080 --> 00:14:17,760
by the plastic taxi triangle
that you slapped to the roof?
309
00:14:17,840 --> 00:14:18,560
(audience laughing)
310
00:14:18,640 --> 00:14:20,160
- That's just the cherry
on top of the cake, Chris.
311
00:14:20,240 --> 00:14:23,560
And let me tell you, Pads
Cabs did a roaring trade.
312
00:14:23,640 --> 00:14:24,920
You might not arrive with your luggage,
313
00:14:25,000 --> 00:14:26,920
but you'll get there very, very quickly.
314
00:14:27,000 --> 00:14:27,880
(audience laughing)
315
00:14:27,960 --> 00:14:30,320
- Well, Paddy, 1.8 million quid.
316
00:14:30,400 --> 00:14:31,720
I don't think cabbies
are gonna be going out
317
00:14:31,800 --> 00:14:33,280
ditching the Priuses just yet.
318
00:14:33,360 --> 00:14:35,280
- No, no, it is bonkers money,
319
00:14:35,360 --> 00:14:37,440
but, listen, everything's
bonkers money these days.
320
00:14:37,520 --> 00:14:39,080
Look at the price of a pint in London.
321
00:14:39,160 --> 00:14:41,120
He knows, he'll tell you.
(audience laughing)
322
00:14:41,200 --> 00:14:43,000
You need a drink after you've
paid for one, mate, don't you?
323
00:14:43,080 --> 00:14:43,840
(audience laughing)
You're right,
324
00:14:43,920 --> 00:14:47,040
but there's still one vehicle
that's doing a booming trade.
325
00:14:47,120 --> 00:14:49,320
And that's the humble van.
326
00:14:49,400 --> 00:14:51,360
Because thanks to the flourishing business
327
00:14:51,440 --> 00:14:52,680
of online deliveries,
328
00:14:52,760 --> 00:14:55,840
it's all happening in the
world of vans right now.
329
00:14:55,920 --> 00:14:56,840
You want a new one?
330
00:14:56,920 --> 00:14:58,120
You spoiled for choice.
331
00:14:58,200 --> 00:14:59,040
What have we got, lads?
332
00:14:59,120 --> 00:15:01,400
- I love this, the ID. Buzz Cargo.
333
00:15:01,480 --> 00:15:05,400
The van version of the
new electric VW love bus.
334
00:15:05,480 --> 00:15:06,240
I'll admit it.
335
00:15:06,320 --> 00:15:08,480
Not the cheapest, not the biggest.
336
00:15:08,560 --> 00:15:09,760
But look at it, it's far more interesting
337
00:15:09,840 --> 00:15:11,640
than a boring diesel box.
338
00:15:11,720 --> 00:15:13,200
- Lovely looking thing, yeah.
339
00:15:13,280 --> 00:15:14,520
- Crystals, what about you?
340
00:15:14,600 --> 00:15:15,960
- Mercedes eVito.
341
00:15:16,040 --> 00:15:19,240
Again, all electric, 160 miles of range.
342
00:15:19,320 --> 00:15:21,720
Much, much clever inside
than your average white van.
343
00:15:21,800 --> 00:15:22,520
- Yeah.
344
00:15:22,600 --> 00:15:23,880
And we've got, everyone,
345
00:15:23,960 --> 00:15:25,960
a Ford Transit Custom.
- There she is.
346
00:15:26,040 --> 00:15:27,200
- Come on, enjoy it.
347
00:15:27,280 --> 00:15:29,720
(audience applauding)
348
00:15:29,800 --> 00:15:33,840
Last year, this was the
best-selling vehicle in the UK.
349
00:15:33,920 --> 00:15:35,440
Not the best-selling van,
350
00:15:35,520 --> 00:15:37,080
the best-selling vehicle.
351
00:15:37,160 --> 00:15:41,040
It outsold Fiestas, Focuses,
Corsairs, Golfs, the lot.
352
00:15:41,120 --> 00:15:41,880
Amazing.
353
00:15:41,960 --> 00:15:43,200
- But here's the issue,
354
00:15:43,280 --> 00:15:45,600
because a shiny van like
this doesn't come cheap.
355
00:15:45,680 --> 00:15:48,120
Apparently, this one, 41 grand.
356
00:15:48,200 --> 00:15:49,160
- [Audience] Ooh.
357
00:15:49,240 --> 00:15:50,440
- I know, I know it is crazy,
358
00:15:50,520 --> 00:15:53,160
but what if you want to
get into the delivery game
359
00:15:53,240 --> 00:15:54,000
on a budget?
360
00:15:54,080 --> 00:15:54,800
- Well, to find out,
361
00:15:54,880 --> 00:15:56,880
the producers gave us each three grand
362
00:15:56,960 --> 00:15:58,840
and told us to buy ourselves a van,
363
00:15:58,920 --> 00:16:00,960
give it a proper delivery
company paint job,
364
00:16:01,040 --> 00:16:04,200
and prepare for some challenges.
365
00:16:04,280 --> 00:16:07,280
(suspenseful music)
366
00:16:08,440 --> 00:16:09,600
At the risk of making this piece
367
00:16:09,680 --> 00:16:12,160
of consumer testing rather brief,
368
00:16:12,240 --> 00:16:15,920
getting into the delivery
game on a budget is simple.
369
00:16:18,520 --> 00:16:21,640
When it comes to vans, you
can't beat the original.
370
00:16:21,720 --> 00:16:24,240
The best, the Ford Transit.
371
00:16:24,320 --> 00:16:27,880
Not only British-built, but
pretty much built Britain.
372
00:16:27,960 --> 00:16:28,800
(elegant orchestral music)
373
00:16:28,880 --> 00:16:31,640
It's part of the fabric of our nation.
374
00:16:31,720 --> 00:16:36,720
And I've got myself a minter
here, just 230,000 miles.
375
00:16:37,280 --> 00:16:38,560
It's barely run in.
376
00:16:38,640 --> 00:16:40,320
If you're going to deliver stuff,
377
00:16:40,400 --> 00:16:42,800
I don't know why you'd
deliver in anything else.
378
00:16:44,320 --> 00:16:48,360
- [Freddie] Unless, that is,
you want it delivered faster.
379
00:16:48,440 --> 00:16:50,840
(rock music)
380
00:16:51,840 --> 00:16:54,560
- Yeah, I really don't why
you'd choose anything...
381
00:16:55,560 --> 00:16:57,560
A sprightly entry?
382
00:16:58,000 --> 00:16:59,320
- Hello.
383
00:16:59,400 --> 00:17:00,880
- First of all, Fred-
- What?
384
00:17:00,960 --> 00:17:01,840
- No notes on the name.
385
00:17:01,920 --> 00:17:02,800
Absolutely superb, bang on.
386
00:17:02,880 --> 00:17:04,040
- Smashed it, I know.
- You have.
387
00:17:04,120 --> 00:17:05,040
- Smashed it.
- I can't complain.
388
00:17:05,120 --> 00:17:05,960
That's superb.
389
00:17:06,040 --> 00:17:06,840
One question.
390
00:17:06,920 --> 00:17:09,040
The brief said, "Buy a van."
391
00:17:09,120 --> 00:17:11,160
You bought a family estate
car with no windows.
392
00:17:11,240 --> 00:17:12,480
- This is an Astravan.
393
00:17:12,560 --> 00:17:15,600
In the cities, you wanna
be fast, get your parcels,
394
00:17:15,680 --> 00:17:18,480
you wanna be nimble,
you wanna park it easy.
395
00:17:18,560 --> 00:17:20,440
This does all that and looks great.
396
00:17:20,520 --> 00:17:21,360
- Okay, let's talk performance.
397
00:17:21,440 --> 00:17:22,240
Engine?
398
00:17:22,320 --> 00:17:23,880
- It's a 1.9.
- Yep.
399
00:17:23,960 --> 00:17:25,280
- Diesel.
- Yeah, cool.
400
00:17:25,360 --> 00:17:26,160
- [Freddie] I got some new rims.
401
00:17:26,240 --> 00:17:27,720
I've got a spoiler on the back.
402
00:17:27,800 --> 00:17:29,000
It looks the part, Chris.
403
00:17:29,080 --> 00:17:30,080
- Scenario.
- Yeah.
404
00:17:30,160 --> 00:17:33,240
- Hi, FredEX, I want to
deliver a sofa, please.
405
00:17:34,080 --> 00:17:36,240
- Yes, I will sort that out.
406
00:17:36,320 --> 00:17:37,240
Then I'll put the phone down.
407
00:17:37,320 --> 00:17:38,280
- Yep.
408
00:17:38,360 --> 00:17:39,080
- Hi, Chris.
409
00:17:39,160 --> 00:17:42,640
I hear you've got a Transit
van down at Purple Sector.
410
00:17:42,720 --> 00:17:44,560
(Chris and Freddie laughing)
411
00:17:44,640 --> 00:17:46,680
Could you deliver a couch for me?
412
00:17:46,760 --> 00:17:50,320
I started speaking and then
I saw the name. (laughing)
413
00:17:50,400 --> 00:17:51,280
The Purple Sector.
414
00:17:51,360 --> 00:17:54,080
- Let me talk you through
Purple Sector Delivery, okay?
415
00:17:54,160 --> 00:17:54,920
- Yeah.
416
00:17:55,000 --> 00:17:56,960
- If you want fast, accurate deliveries,
417
00:17:57,040 --> 00:17:58,480
Purple Sector is all about motorsport.
418
00:17:58,560 --> 00:18:00,800
'Cause when you go quickest
in a sector on a racetrack,
419
00:18:00,880 --> 00:18:02,280
you go purple.
420
00:18:02,360 --> 00:18:03,400
This is about speed.
421
00:18:03,480 --> 00:18:04,400
This is about being the quickest.
422
00:18:04,480 --> 00:18:05,240
- Speed?
423
00:18:05,320 --> 00:18:06,040
It's a Transit van.
424
00:18:06,120 --> 00:18:06,880
This is about speed.
425
00:18:06,960 --> 00:18:08,720
- I reckon, in a straight
line, that would toast that.
426
00:18:08,800 --> 00:18:09,600
- Shut up.
427
00:18:09,680 --> 00:18:10,440
- It would.
428
00:18:10,520 --> 00:18:11,400
- A Transit van?
429
00:18:11,480 --> 00:18:12,200
- It's a winner.
430
00:18:12,280 --> 00:18:13,040
Come on, it's a winner.
431
00:18:13,120 --> 00:18:14,320
- So are are you gonna be
432
00:18:14,400 --> 00:18:16,560
the quintessential Transit van driver?
433
00:18:16,640 --> 00:18:19,360
- I'm an aggressive little
man in a Transit van.
434
00:18:19,440 --> 00:18:20,520
- Wow.
435
00:18:20,600 --> 00:18:21,360
(upbeat music)
436
00:18:21,440 --> 00:18:22,720
- [Paddy] Come on.
437
00:18:22,800 --> 00:18:25,800
Do you want those cowboys
knocking at your door?
438
00:18:25,880 --> 00:18:29,560
Would you prefer a more reliable service?
439
00:18:29,640 --> 00:18:31,640
- [Chris] Oh my lord.
440
00:18:32,680 --> 00:18:34,440
- I can't wait for this.
441
00:18:34,520 --> 00:18:36,560
Come on then.
442
00:18:36,640 --> 00:18:38,920
(Freddie chuckling)
443
00:18:39,000 --> 00:18:40,320
- Good morning, gentlemen.
444
00:18:40,400 --> 00:18:43,000
- Good morning.
- How are we?
445
00:18:43,080 --> 00:18:45,280
- Is it Postman Pat or Postman Pad?
446
00:18:45,360 --> 00:18:47,160
- I'm going back to an era
447
00:18:47,240 --> 00:18:49,920
when the postal service was respected.
448
00:18:50,000 --> 00:18:50,720
(Freddie chuckling)
449
00:18:50,800 --> 00:18:53,040
You two look like you've come
off the set of "CBeebies."
450
00:18:53,120 --> 00:18:55,440
- What? (laughs)
- Coming from you? (laughs)
451
00:18:55,520 --> 00:18:57,240
- Right, there's a lot
to take in here, Pad.
452
00:18:57,320 --> 00:18:58,800
First of all-
- You start, Chris.
453
00:18:58,880 --> 00:19:01,720
- The choice of van, VW Caddy.
454
00:19:01,800 --> 00:19:02,640
Paddy in a Caddy.
455
00:19:02,720 --> 00:19:06,200
- Based on the old Volkswagen
Golf, handles fantastically.
456
00:19:06,280 --> 00:19:08,240
700 kilos in the back.
457
00:19:08,320 --> 00:19:09,200
Look at it.
458
00:19:09,280 --> 00:19:10,160
It's a beauty.
459
00:19:10,240 --> 00:19:12,680
Dunnit not make you smile,
a bright red van like that?
460
00:19:12,760 --> 00:19:14,320
- You got one thing missing, though.
461
00:19:14,400 --> 00:19:15,360
- What?
462
00:19:15,440 --> 00:19:16,160
- Where's Jess?
- Please.
463
00:19:16,240 --> 00:19:18,280
- Where's Jess? (chuckles)
- Wait.
464
00:19:18,360 --> 00:19:19,320
- He's not-
- I don't wanna know.
465
00:19:19,400 --> 00:19:20,960
- He's not got a cat in the back of there?
466
00:19:21,040 --> 00:19:22,640
- [Paddy] There she is.
467
00:19:22,720 --> 00:19:23,480
(Freddie laughing)
468
00:19:23,560 --> 00:19:25,600
- [Chris] Okay, that's not acceptable.
469
00:19:25,680 --> 00:19:27,160
- [Freddie] There's just nothing
right about that. (laughs)
470
00:19:27,240 --> 00:19:28,680
- I've gotta say, firstly-
471
00:19:28,760 --> 00:19:30,200
- No, look at that! (laughs)
472
00:19:30,280 --> 00:19:31,600
That's just staring at me.
473
00:19:31,680 --> 00:19:32,440
Thats not
474
00:19:32,520 --> 00:19:33,600
a real cat, is it?
- I can't deal with this.
475
00:19:33,680 --> 00:19:34,440
- Careful.
- Is it a real cat?
476
00:19:34,520 --> 00:19:35,880
- She's a bit funny with strangers.
477
00:19:35,960 --> 00:19:37,760
- No, that was someone's pet!
478
00:19:37,840 --> 00:19:38,720
- It still is, it's mine.
479
00:19:38,800 --> 00:19:42,760
(Chris and Freddie laughing)
480
00:19:42,840 --> 00:19:46,040
- [Chris] So this day had
gone weird unusually quickly.
481
00:19:47,160 --> 00:19:49,440
But nevertheless, we'd
been told it was time
482
00:19:49,520 --> 00:19:52,200
to put our delivery vans to the test
483
00:19:52,280 --> 00:19:54,280
at a nearby mystery location.
484
00:19:55,360 --> 00:19:58,680
A mystery location happily
located somewhere beyond the end
485
00:19:59,760 --> 00:20:01,400
of this runway.
486
00:20:01,480 --> 00:20:03,720
- [Paddy] Go on, Purple
Member, start us off.
487
00:20:04,920 --> 00:20:06,680
- Purple Sector.
488
00:20:06,760 --> 00:20:07,600
- Sorry.
489
00:20:07,680 --> 00:20:10,960
- Three, two, one, go.
490
00:20:11,040 --> 00:20:12,640
(brakes screeching)
491
00:20:12,720 --> 00:20:15,800
(upbeat rock music)
492
00:20:15,880 --> 00:20:19,120
- Oh, go on, the Astra man!
493
00:20:19,200 --> 00:20:19,960
- Oh, look at this.
494
00:20:20,040 --> 00:20:22,240
I'm being taken down by the Astra.
495
00:20:22,320 --> 00:20:23,360
- Ooh.
496
00:20:23,440 --> 00:20:25,160
- Go on, the Caddy!
497
00:20:25,240 --> 00:20:27,520
And the bloody Caddy as well.
498
00:20:27,600 --> 00:20:29,280
Oh.
499
00:20:29,360 --> 00:20:32,360
(upbeat rock music)
500
00:20:34,040 --> 00:20:35,720
I'm getting hammered here.
501
00:20:35,800 --> 00:20:38,040
- Harris said he was gonna have me.
502
00:20:38,120 --> 00:20:40,760
This is the future of deliveries.
503
00:20:45,960 --> 00:20:48,200
- I was quietly confident
that the rear-wheel drive,
504
00:20:48,280 --> 00:20:50,880
very lightweight, empty Transit
van would do quite well,
505
00:20:50,960 --> 00:20:52,960
but I was absolutely thumped there.
506
00:20:53,040 --> 00:20:55,200
(upbeat rock music)
507
00:20:55,280 --> 00:20:57,160
- Exactly.
508
00:20:57,240 --> 00:20:58,680
In the world of deliveries,
509
00:20:58,760 --> 00:21:02,240
most of the time, it's
not size that's important.
510
00:21:02,320 --> 00:21:04,320
It's speed.
511
00:21:05,440 --> 00:21:09,160
All these huge delivery
vans tooling around town,
512
00:21:09,240 --> 00:21:12,600
if you look at them,
they're never full of stuff.
513
00:21:12,680 --> 00:21:17,360
You know, people order socks,
charging cables, small things.
514
00:21:17,440 --> 00:21:19,560
This is all you need, one of these.
515
00:21:19,640 --> 00:21:22,280
I won't be late in this, I'll be there early.
516
00:21:23,360 --> 00:21:25,680
I'm bringing a bit of
sportiness to the van world.
517
00:21:28,480 --> 00:21:30,600
- Now this particular
generation of Transit
518
00:21:30,680 --> 00:21:33,720
was one of the last to be built in the UK.
519
00:21:33,800 --> 00:21:35,280
And being a Ford,
520
00:21:35,360 --> 00:21:37,800
it actually drives a lot
better than it needs to.
521
00:21:37,880 --> 00:21:40,200
The steering's good, the brakes are good,
522
00:21:40,280 --> 00:21:41,320
the gearshift is fine.
523
00:21:41,400 --> 00:21:43,880
And I tell you what, it is fun to drive.
524
00:21:45,320 --> 00:21:47,280
(upbeat rock music)
525
00:21:47,360 --> 00:21:48,200
And when you're spending
526
00:21:48,280 --> 00:21:51,160
your whole working week behind the wheel,
527
00:21:51,240 --> 00:21:53,640
that is frankly much more important
528
00:21:53,720 --> 00:21:55,720
than where you put your stuffed cat.
529
00:21:56,680 --> 00:21:58,680
- You cool enough, my love?
530
00:22:01,680 --> 00:22:03,280
You know, there's something lovely
531
00:22:03,360 --> 00:22:07,120
about seeing a bright red
van coming down the road.
532
00:22:07,200 --> 00:22:11,640
That little nod back to
happy, innocent times.
533
00:22:11,720 --> 00:22:14,000
There used to be a time when
people would look forward
534
00:22:14,080 --> 00:22:15,680
to seeing the postie.
535
00:22:15,760 --> 00:22:17,560
Any odd jobs you need
me to do while I'm here?
536
00:22:17,640 --> 00:22:18,400
No?
537
00:22:18,480 --> 00:22:19,800
Okay, I'll see you tomorrow morning.
538
00:22:19,880 --> 00:22:21,200
Lovely.
539
00:22:21,280 --> 00:22:24,840
Now it's all parcels
thrown into your bushes.
540
00:22:25,800 --> 00:22:28,080
I'm bringing back the personal touch
541
00:22:28,160 --> 00:22:30,160
in the bright red van.
542
00:22:30,560 --> 00:22:32,280
Royal Male.
543
00:22:32,360 --> 00:22:35,640
- [Chris] But it was time to
decide who'd really solved
544
00:22:35,720 --> 00:22:39,360
the great secondhand delivery van dilemma.
545
00:22:39,440 --> 00:22:42,120
Pulling up to the state-of-the-art
546
00:22:43,320 --> 00:22:45,560
"Top Gear" rapid parcel delivery
547
00:22:45,640 --> 00:22:47,640
assault course test facility
548
00:22:48,520 --> 00:22:50,400
centre.
549
00:22:50,480 --> 00:22:53,480
(suspenseful music)
550
00:22:56,800 --> 00:22:57,800
(Paddy clears throat)
551
00:22:57,880 --> 00:22:59,760
(Freddie chuckling)
552
00:22:59,840 --> 00:23:03,960
You will now tackle a
challenging handling circuit,
553
00:23:04,040 --> 00:23:07,160
delivering packages as you go.
554
00:23:07,240 --> 00:23:09,520
Fastest to complete the round wins.
555
00:23:09,600 --> 00:23:12,680
P.S. Beware of the dog.
556
00:23:12,760 --> 00:23:14,160
- I didn't even listen to the challenge.
557
00:23:14,240 --> 00:23:16,360
I was just looking at that cat.
558
00:23:16,440 --> 00:23:18,280
(suspenseful music)
559
00:23:18,360 --> 00:23:21,440
- [Chris] For Flintoff and
everyone else's benefit, then,
560
00:23:21,520 --> 00:23:24,080
this thorough test of
our delivery vehicles
561
00:23:24,160 --> 00:23:26,600
would now see us take
turns driving a course
562
00:23:26,680 --> 00:23:29,920
specifically designed to
include all the challenges
563
00:23:30,000 --> 00:23:34,520
a busy driver might encounter on a shift.
564
00:23:34,600 --> 00:23:37,120
(dog barking)
565
00:23:38,000 --> 00:23:38,720
- You all right, Jess?
566
00:23:38,800 --> 00:23:39,560
(imitates cat meowing) Shut up.
567
00:23:39,640 --> 00:23:41,320
(Freddie laughing)
568
00:23:41,400 --> 00:23:42,760
Let's deliver.
569
00:23:42,840 --> 00:23:46,000
- And as Postman Pad would now
demonstrate by going first...
570
00:23:46,080 --> 00:23:47,560
Three, two, one, go.
571
00:23:47,640 --> 00:23:48,800
- Oh, oh, hurry.
572
00:23:48,880 --> 00:23:51,240
- [Chris] Those challenges are varied.
573
00:23:51,320 --> 00:23:55,360
- Whoa, hey, hey, hey. (chuckles)
574
00:23:55,440 --> 00:23:57,120
- [Chris] With a handy
sat nav directing us
575
00:23:57,200 --> 00:23:59,880
to the full range of
typical delivery locations.
576
00:23:59,960 --> 00:24:03,040
- [Sat Nav] In 50 metres, turn left.
577
00:24:03,120 --> 00:24:07,440
- [Chris] The course begins
on tight urban streets.
578
00:24:07,520 --> 00:24:09,520
- Ooh, my god.
579
00:24:10,640 --> 00:24:12,800
Geez, these deliveries are everywhere.
580
00:24:12,880 --> 00:24:15,600
- And, of course, for
a delivery to count...
581
00:24:15,680 --> 00:24:16,440
This is quite nice.
582
00:24:16,520 --> 00:24:17,480
- He's going to do it properly, isn't he?
583
00:24:17,560 --> 00:24:20,360
- [Chris] It must be left
in the designated area.
584
00:24:20,440 --> 00:24:21,400
- Thank you.
585
00:24:21,480 --> 00:24:23,120
- [Sat Nav] (beeps) Delivery successful.
586
00:24:23,200 --> 00:24:23,960
- I like that.
- No, I do.
587
00:24:24,040 --> 00:24:26,040
- No, no, I like that.
588
00:24:26,600 --> 00:24:30,680
Next, the course throws up
the dreaded first-floor test.
589
00:24:31,600 --> 00:24:33,120
- Put the hat there.
590
00:24:33,200 --> 00:24:35,120
- [Chris] A sweaty dash upstairs
591
00:24:35,200 --> 00:24:37,200
to really get the blood pumping.
592
00:24:39,120 --> 00:24:41,120
- [Sat Nav] (beeps) Delivery successful.
593
00:24:42,480 --> 00:24:43,240
(engine roaring)
594
00:24:43,320 --> 00:24:44,440
- Woohoo!
595
00:24:44,520 --> 00:24:46,680
Go on! Are you all right down there, Jess?
596
00:24:46,760 --> 00:24:48,640
- [Freddie] He's keen, Pad, isn't he?
597
00:24:48,720 --> 00:24:50,760
- [Chris] As well he should be.
598
00:24:50,840 --> 00:24:53,880
Because it's time for the multi drop zone.
599
00:24:54,920 --> 00:24:58,080
Three addresses, just a few doors apart.
600
00:24:58,160 --> 00:24:59,320
- [Sat Nav] Drop three.
601
00:24:59,400 --> 00:25:02,160
- [Chris] Each one just
begging the question,
602
00:25:02,240 --> 00:25:03,880
do you drive between them?
603
00:25:03,960 --> 00:25:05,160
- [Sat Nav] (beeps) Delivery successful.
604
00:25:05,240 --> 00:25:07,200
- [Chris] Or attack them all on foot?
605
00:25:07,280 --> 00:25:08,440
- [Sat Nav] Drop four.
606
00:25:08,520 --> 00:25:09,600
- Oh, he's dropping them off-
607
00:25:09,680 --> 00:25:10,440
Oh, there he is.
608
00:25:10,520 --> 00:25:12,440
- Yes, he's gonna be tired after this.
609
00:25:12,520 --> 00:25:13,520
- [Paddy] Lovely stuff.
610
00:25:13,600 --> 00:25:15,480
(brakes screeching)
611
00:25:15,560 --> 00:25:18,840
- This is like a really weird
version of "Challenge Anneka."
612
00:25:18,920 --> 00:25:20,000
- [Paddy] Last one.
613
00:25:20,080 --> 00:25:21,760
Get on that.
614
00:25:21,840 --> 00:25:23,240
- Delivery successful.
- This is rigorous.
615
00:25:23,320 --> 00:25:25,320
I think he's got them all so far.
616
00:25:26,280 --> 00:25:28,240
With just two drops remaining,
617
00:25:28,320 --> 00:25:30,480
the course heads out of town,
618
00:25:30,560 --> 00:25:34,480
aiming to test our van's
rural capabilities.
619
00:25:34,560 --> 00:25:35,600
- Drop six.
- Not good.
620
00:25:35,680 --> 00:25:38,800
- Static caravan.
- Ouch, wrong way.
621
00:25:38,880 --> 00:25:40,880
(banana squeaks)
What the (beep)?
622
00:25:41,680 --> 00:25:42,880
- Whoa, whoa.
- Oh, that could have done it.
623
00:25:42,960 --> 00:25:44,640
That could have done it.
624
00:25:44,720 --> 00:25:46,480
- A freaking banana.
625
00:25:46,560 --> 00:25:48,000
- [Chris] Pulling up at the caravan,
626
00:25:48,080 --> 00:25:49,880
no run would be complete
627
00:25:49,960 --> 00:25:53,600
without the always awkward big screen TV.
628
00:25:53,680 --> 00:25:55,680
- [Paddy] One plasma coming up.
629
00:25:58,000 --> 00:25:58,760
- That's in the box.
630
00:25:58,840 --> 00:26:00,840
That's neat and tidy.
631
00:26:01,400 --> 00:26:04,600
And with this textbook run
now drawing to a close,
632
00:26:04,680 --> 00:26:08,160
all that remains is the final drop.
633
00:26:08,240 --> 00:26:09,480
- Come on.
634
00:26:09,560 --> 00:26:13,280
- [Chris] Complete with
every delivery driver's
635
00:26:13,360 --> 00:26:15,400
worst nightmare.
636
00:26:15,480 --> 00:26:16,920
- [Sat Nav] Drop seven.
637
00:26:17,000 --> 00:26:20,160
Warning: Untethered
animal loose on premises.
638
00:26:20,240 --> 00:26:21,480
(Paddy grunts)
639
00:26:21,560 --> 00:26:24,600
- [Paddy] Where's that bloody dog?
640
00:26:24,680 --> 00:26:27,080
Bloody hell, the weight of it.
641
00:26:27,160 --> 00:26:27,920
- Here he goes, here he goes.
642
00:26:28,000 --> 00:26:29,440
- Oh, you got it, Pad.
- Hat's on, hat's on.
643
00:26:29,520 --> 00:26:30,280
- [Freddie] Oh, he's having a go. (laughs)
644
00:26:30,360 --> 00:26:31,440
- [Chris] He's got Jess the cat with him.
645
00:26:32,360 --> 00:26:33,960
He's moving quite well there.
646
00:26:34,040 --> 00:26:36,320
- [Chris] Now, it's worth mentioning
647
00:26:36,400 --> 00:26:39,400
that any misdeliveries earn
a 20-second time penalty.
648
00:26:39,480 --> 00:26:40,720
(beep)
649
00:26:40,800 --> 00:26:44,520
(Chris and Freddie laughing)
650
00:26:44,600 --> 00:26:46,520
But that was of no concern to Postman Pad.
651
00:26:46,600 --> 00:26:48,520
(dog barking)
- God, there's the dog.
652
00:26:48,600 --> 00:26:51,040
Save yourself, Jess!
653
00:26:51,120 --> 00:26:52,120
(dog barks)
(Paddy gasps)
654
00:26:52,200 --> 00:26:53,040
(dog snarling)
(Paddy grunting)
655
00:26:53,120 --> 00:26:54,800
- Oh, he's dropped!
- He's straight down.
656
00:26:54,880 --> 00:26:56,680
(Chris and Freddie laughing)
657
00:26:56,760 --> 00:26:58,840
- [Chris] With a clean sweep of drops,
658
00:26:58,920 --> 00:27:01,560
McGuinness had posted
a very respectable time
659
00:27:01,640 --> 00:27:04,520
of five minutes, 51 seconds.
660
00:27:04,600 --> 00:27:06,240
- [Paddy] Royal Male, son.
661
00:27:06,320 --> 00:27:07,960
We always deliver.
662
00:27:08,040 --> 00:27:10,560
(upbeat music)
663
00:27:10,640 --> 00:27:12,360
- [Chris] A time that
I would now aim to beat
664
00:27:12,440 --> 00:27:14,760
in the Transit.
665
00:27:14,840 --> 00:27:16,920
- Okay, Purple Member,
666
00:27:17,000 --> 00:27:19,360
three, two, one, go.
667
00:27:19,440 --> 00:27:20,480
(brakes screeching)
668
00:27:20,560 --> 00:27:21,640
- Whoa.
- Whoa.
669
00:27:21,720 --> 00:27:23,720
- Whoa.
670
00:27:24,960 --> 00:27:27,840
- [Paddy] Hope there's
no glassware in there.
671
00:27:27,920 --> 00:27:29,520
- [Sat Nav] Drop number one.
672
00:27:29,600 --> 00:27:31,000
- [Paddy] Rear-wheel drive,
673
00:27:31,080 --> 00:27:33,360
that's where he's got
the advantage, you see.
674
00:27:33,440 --> 00:27:35,920
- [Freddie] But where he
didn't have the advantage...
675
00:27:36,000 --> 00:27:37,240
- [Chris] In you go.
676
00:27:37,320 --> 00:27:38,880
- [Sat Nav] Delivery successful.
677
00:27:38,960 --> 00:27:41,640
- [Freddie] Was when the going got tight.
678
00:27:41,720 --> 00:27:43,920
- Oh, that's two.
679
00:27:44,000 --> 00:27:44,720
Three?
680
00:27:44,800 --> 00:27:46,800
- The Transit is a bit bigger than theirs.
681
00:27:47,720 --> 00:27:48,480
There we go.
682
00:27:48,560 --> 00:27:51,080
- Ooh, is it the house?
- That's four.
683
00:27:51,160 --> 00:27:51,880
- It's the other way.
684
00:27:51,960 --> 00:27:53,520
Feel your way into it, Chris.
685
00:27:53,600 --> 00:27:55,080
- Why is it-
(Paddy and Freddie laughing)
686
00:27:55,160 --> 00:27:56,040
(brakes screeching)
687
00:27:56,120 --> 00:27:57,200
- Six-point turn.
688
00:27:57,280 --> 00:27:59,760
(suspenseful music)
689
00:27:59,840 --> 00:28:02,560
- [Freddie] And as for
the first floor test...
690
00:28:02,640 --> 00:28:03,400
- [Chris] Two.
691
00:28:03,480 --> 00:28:05,560
- [Freddie] That wasn't
much to look at either.
692
00:28:05,640 --> 00:28:07,800
(package crashes)
- Oh!
693
00:28:07,880 --> 00:28:08,920
- He's not got it on.
694
00:28:09,000 --> 00:28:10,920
- He's not throwing it, yeah.
- Oh, he's gone.
695
00:28:11,000 --> 00:28:11,920
He's attempted it, though,
696
00:28:12,000 --> 00:28:13,480
now I reckon you can place, huh.
697
00:28:13,560 --> 00:28:14,320
- [Freddie] You reckon?
698
00:28:14,400 --> 00:28:16,360
- I reckon you can just
give it one of them.
699
00:28:16,440 --> 00:28:17,200
(package crashes)
- Oh.
700
00:28:17,280 --> 00:28:19,160
- [Sat Nav] Delivery successful.
701
00:28:19,240 --> 00:28:19,960
- How's he gonna get out?
702
00:28:20,040 --> 00:28:21,000
He's gonna reverse it.
703
00:28:21,080 --> 00:28:22,800
(brakes screeching)
704
00:28:22,880 --> 00:28:26,360
- The Transit's good at going over curbs.
705
00:28:26,440 --> 00:28:27,560
- Oh.
- No, you can't do that.
706
00:28:27,640 --> 00:28:29,400
That'd be a letter to the company, that.
707
00:28:29,480 --> 00:28:30,880
(engine roaring)
708
00:28:30,960 --> 00:28:33,360
Where the old Purple Sector Delivery
709
00:28:33,440 --> 00:28:35,440
really dropped the ball, though,
710
00:28:36,080 --> 00:28:38,080
was in the multi drop zone.
711
00:28:38,840 --> 00:28:39,680
- Oh, he's missed.
712
00:28:39,760 --> 00:28:41,120
It's in the next guy's drive.
713
00:28:41,200 --> 00:28:43,120
- [Sat Nav] (beeps) Delivery unsuccessful.
714
00:28:43,200 --> 00:28:45,160
20-second penalty.
715
00:28:45,240 --> 00:28:47,120
- [Freddie] Oh, he's trying to lob it in.
716
00:28:47,200 --> 00:28:49,280
- Bollocks.
- Delivery unsuccessful.
717
00:28:49,360 --> 00:28:50,120
- Hell of a mess.
718
00:28:50,200 --> 00:28:52,000
- He's having an absolute nightmare.
719
00:28:52,080 --> 00:28:53,400
- [Sat Nav] Drop five.
720
00:28:53,480 --> 00:28:55,520
(beeps) Delivery unsuccessful.
721
00:28:55,600 --> 00:28:56,760
- Oh, he's missed another.
722
00:28:56,840 --> 00:28:58,160
(rock music)
723
00:28:58,240 --> 00:29:00,800
With the clock ticking away,
724
00:29:00,880 --> 00:29:03,320
Harris bounced out into the countryside,
725
00:29:04,880 --> 00:29:08,760
hoping to redeem himself with
the flat-screen telly drop.
726
00:29:08,840 --> 00:29:11,160
- Now you don't want this
dropping on the floor
727
00:29:11,240 --> 00:29:12,600
by your delivery driver.
728
00:29:12,680 --> 00:29:13,560
This is your plasma.
729
00:29:13,640 --> 00:29:15,000
You've saved up for this.
730
00:29:15,080 --> 00:29:16,360
4K, the lot.
731
00:29:16,440 --> 00:29:17,160
(TV crashes)
732
00:29:17,240 --> 00:29:18,000
Oh my God.
733
00:29:18,080 --> 00:29:20,080
Look at that.
- Oh, no.
734
00:29:20,160 --> 00:29:21,880
- [Sat Nav] (beeps) Delivery successful.
735
00:29:21,960 --> 00:29:23,960
- I'm blowing now.
736
00:29:25,520 --> 00:29:26,280
(Chris sighs)
737
00:29:26,360 --> 00:29:29,480
- [Freddie] To round off
this delivery disaster,
738
00:29:29,560 --> 00:29:33,000
it was just a case of waiting
for our canine friend...
739
00:29:33,080 --> 00:29:33,800
- Where's the dog?
740
00:29:33,880 --> 00:29:34,640
- [Freddie] To put him...
741
00:29:34,720 --> 00:29:35,720
- Where's the dog?
742
00:29:35,800 --> 00:29:36,560
- [Freddie] Out of his misery.
743
00:29:36,640 --> 00:29:37,800
- Where's the dog?
744
00:29:37,880 --> 00:29:39,840
Where's the dog?
- Look how he's running.
745
00:29:39,920 --> 00:29:41,120
- [Freddie] He's got his
shoelaces tied together.
746
00:29:41,200 --> 00:29:44,120
- He's literally running
like he's pooed himself.
747
00:29:44,200 --> 00:29:46,240
- [Freddie] Don't think
about the dog, Chris.
748
00:29:46,320 --> 00:29:47,520
- [Sat Nav] (beeps) Delivery successful.
749
00:29:47,600 --> 00:29:49,080
- Ooh, ooh.
750
00:29:49,160 --> 00:29:51,160
Oh, he's terrified.
751
00:29:51,720 --> 00:29:52,480
(dog barking)
752
00:29:52,560 --> 00:29:53,320
Oh my god, we got it, Chris.
753
00:29:53,400 --> 00:29:54,520
Come on, Harris.
- Finish it.
754
00:29:54,600 --> 00:29:56,600
- He's gonna pull you down.
- Oh no, he got his-
755
00:29:57,920 --> 00:29:58,680
- Ouch.
756
00:29:58,760 --> 00:30:01,240
(dog snarling)
(Chris whimpering)
757
00:30:01,320 --> 00:30:03,120
- Oh.
- Look at his face!
758
00:30:03,200 --> 00:30:04,160
- Do you want a bone?
759
00:30:04,240 --> 00:30:05,040
Would you like a Boneo?
760
00:30:05,120 --> 00:30:05,840
Boneo?
761
00:30:05,920 --> 00:30:07,920
- What we've got here from Chris Harris
762
00:30:08,000 --> 00:30:10,040
is a second-class delivery.
763
00:30:10,120 --> 00:30:11,520
(dog snarling)
764
00:30:11,600 --> 00:30:13,320
- [Chris] How about a steak?
765
00:30:13,400 --> 00:30:15,760
Okay, with three missed deliveries
766
00:30:15,840 --> 00:30:19,200
resulting in a seven
minute, 26 second run,
767
00:30:19,280 --> 00:30:23,240
it'd be fair to say I hadn't
gone purple in every sector.
768
00:30:24,560 --> 00:30:27,320
(upbeat music)
769
00:30:27,400 --> 00:30:30,960
So with Paddy in his Caddy
still the team to beat,
770
00:30:31,040 --> 00:30:34,560
could FredEx in his sporty
Astra deliver the goods?
771
00:30:34,640 --> 00:30:35,960
(suspenseful music)
772
00:30:36,040 --> 00:30:38,760
- Now, remember, that is a plasma.
773
00:30:38,840 --> 00:30:40,160
- The way it's
ratchet-strapped to the roof,
774
00:30:40,240 --> 00:30:41,720
it's now three plasmas.
775
00:30:41,800 --> 00:30:43,120
- Are you ready?
- Yeah.
776
00:30:43,200 --> 00:30:44,640
- FredEx.
(vehicle roaring)
777
00:30:44,720 --> 00:30:46,720
Three, two, one, deliver.
778
00:30:47,720 --> 00:30:49,760
- Go, Fred.
- FredEx, hey.
779
00:30:49,840 --> 00:30:51,840
Oh, oh.
780
00:30:52,200 --> 00:30:53,600
(brakes screeching)
781
00:30:53,680 --> 00:30:54,440
- Ooh, no, this is done.
- Here we go.
782
00:30:54,520 --> 00:30:56,520
- This is it.
- Is he gonna give it some?
783
00:30:57,880 --> 00:30:58,640
- Ooh, it's tight.
784
00:30:58,720 --> 00:31:00,520
blooming hell, look at this street.
785
00:31:00,600 --> 00:31:03,280
Some dodgy parking 'round here.
786
00:31:03,360 --> 00:31:04,360
(brakes screech)
787
00:31:04,440 --> 00:31:05,200
- [Paddy] Ooh, he hit the house.
788
00:31:05,280 --> 00:31:07,280
- He's just driven straight into a house.
789
00:31:07,920 --> 00:31:08,680
- Where's my parcel?
790
00:31:08,760 --> 00:31:10,760
Where's the numbers?
791
00:31:11,120 --> 00:31:13,160
One.
792
00:31:13,240 --> 00:31:14,440
(package crashing)
793
00:31:14,520 --> 00:31:16,520
- Should he leave his
name and number there?
794
00:31:17,200 --> 00:31:19,360
- [Paddy] A nervy start
from the boy racer,
795
00:31:20,240 --> 00:31:22,520
but let's be honest, the next drop...
796
00:31:22,600 --> 00:31:24,440
- [Freddie] Oh, I'm not going up there.
797
00:31:24,520 --> 00:31:26,480
- Was right up his street.
798
00:31:26,560 --> 00:31:28,560
Oh, he's on the roof.
799
00:31:30,480 --> 00:31:31,480
(package crashing)
800
00:31:31,560 --> 00:31:33,120
- Delivery successful.
- Hey.
801
00:31:33,200 --> 00:31:33,920
- He's got it in a box still, though.
802
00:31:34,000 --> 00:31:34,880
What a swine.
803
00:31:34,960 --> 00:31:37,200
(suspenseful music)
804
00:31:37,280 --> 00:31:38,360
- [Paddy] Oh, yes,
805
00:31:38,440 --> 00:31:42,640
at FredEx, speed is everything.
806
00:31:42,720 --> 00:31:43,480
(engine roaring)
807
00:31:43,560 --> 00:31:44,960
- Whoa, blooming heck.
808
00:31:45,040 --> 00:31:47,640
There's something in the
back didn't like that.
809
00:31:47,720 --> 00:31:49,960
- [Paddy] And with two
drops done already...
810
00:31:50,040 --> 00:31:50,800
- Six.
811
00:31:50,880 --> 00:31:54,240
- Next up was the multi drop masterclass.
812
00:31:54,320 --> 00:31:55,360
Now he's got the arm.
813
00:31:55,440 --> 00:31:57,440
- Ooh.
- Look.
814
00:31:58,880 --> 00:32:00,160
Oh, he's got that in as well.
815
00:32:00,240 --> 00:32:02,240
- [Freddie] Delivery.
816
00:32:02,840 --> 00:32:05,720
- That's in as well.
- Delivery successful.
817
00:32:05,800 --> 00:32:07,800
- Delivery.
818
00:32:08,440 --> 00:32:09,160
That'll do.
819
00:32:09,240 --> 00:32:10,200
- [Sat Nav] (beep) Delivery unsuccessful.
820
00:32:10,280 --> 00:32:12,400
- He hasn't got that
one in as well, has he?
821
00:32:12,480 --> 00:32:13,720
- [Paddy] He hadn't.
822
00:32:13,800 --> 00:32:16,520
But sprinting out of town...
823
00:32:18,800 --> 00:32:19,960
- Ooh.
- Like a rough ride.
824
00:32:20,040 --> 00:32:21,560
- I gotta get the ratchet off.
825
00:32:21,640 --> 00:32:25,480
- [Paddy] Flintoff was soon
dispatching the big screen TV
826
00:32:25,560 --> 00:32:28,400
with the now customary FredEx touch.
827
00:32:28,480 --> 00:32:29,800
(TV crashes)
- Oh my god.
828
00:32:29,880 --> 00:32:32,040
- Delivery successful.
- It's in the box.
829
00:32:32,120 --> 00:32:34,120
(Paddy chuckling)
- What was that?
830
00:32:34,680 --> 00:32:37,000
- [Paddy] And pulling up to the final drop
831
00:32:37,080 --> 00:32:40,040
with a couple of penalties against him...
832
00:32:40,120 --> 00:32:41,600
- Loving those ratchet straps.
833
00:32:41,680 --> 00:32:44,600
- [Paddy] Stealing the
delivery driver top spot
834
00:32:44,680 --> 00:32:49,600
would need every ounce of
that trademark FredEx pace.
835
00:32:50,560 --> 00:32:51,880
- [Sat Nav] Delivery successful.
836
00:32:51,960 --> 00:32:52,880
(suspenseful music)
837
00:32:52,960 --> 00:32:54,000
- Here we go.
- Look at his face.
838
00:32:54,080 --> 00:32:55,960
(dog barking)
- I've got this.
839
00:32:56,040 --> 00:32:58,040
I've got it.
840
00:32:58,560 --> 00:33:01,040
(dog snarling)
Oh no.
841
00:33:01,120 --> 00:33:03,120
Oh, you win, you win.
842
00:33:03,200 --> 00:33:04,600
(Chris laughing)
843
00:33:04,680 --> 00:33:06,080
Look, you win.
844
00:33:06,160 --> 00:33:07,920
Good boy.
845
00:33:08,000 --> 00:33:10,000
Good boy.
846
00:33:10,720 --> 00:33:13,200
(audience applauding)
847
00:33:13,280 --> 00:33:14,400
- I'm not happy about this.
848
00:33:14,480 --> 00:33:16,240
No, I'm not happy about this.
- It's okay.
849
00:33:16,320 --> 00:33:18,080
- No, I'm not.
850
00:33:18,160 --> 00:33:19,840
- You gotta know.
(Freddie laughing)
851
00:33:21,600 --> 00:33:25,480
So I know the question on everyone's lips-
852
00:33:25,560 --> 00:33:27,480
- Have we totally lost our minds?
853
00:33:27,560 --> 00:33:28,880
- Not that, no.
(audience laughing)
854
00:33:28,960 --> 00:33:31,520
Who takes the delivery
driver bragging rights?
855
00:33:31,600 --> 00:33:34,760
Did FredEx manage to beat Postman Pad?
856
00:33:34,840 --> 00:33:36,640
Well, I've got the results here, folks.
857
00:33:36,720 --> 00:33:37,520
(audience applauding)
858
00:33:38,440 --> 00:33:40,640
- Now, we can forget Purple Sector.
859
00:33:40,720 --> 00:33:41,560
You are a nightmare.
860
00:33:41,640 --> 00:33:42,560
You're out of the running.
861
00:33:42,640 --> 00:33:43,680
We know that.
(audience laughing)
862
00:33:43,760 --> 00:33:45,080
It's down to me and you, Fred.
863
00:33:45,160 --> 00:33:46,560
Right, I've got the times here.
864
00:33:46,640 --> 00:33:51,360
I managed five minutes, 51
seconds with no missed drops.
865
00:33:51,440 --> 00:33:53,200
- Ooh.
- Ooh.
866
00:33:53,280 --> 00:33:56,120
(audience applauding)
867
00:33:56,200 --> 00:33:59,320
Fred, you managed four
minutes, 47 seconds,
868
00:33:59,400 --> 00:34:02,400
but two missed drops.
- Ooh.
869
00:34:02,480 --> 00:34:03,240
- What does that mean?
870
00:34:03,320 --> 00:34:04,560
what does that mean?
871
00:34:04,640 --> 00:34:07,560
- Resulting in a time
of also five minutes,
872
00:34:07,640 --> 00:34:09,280
27 seconds.
873
00:34:09,360 --> 00:34:10,680
FredEx delivers.
874
00:34:10,760 --> 00:34:12,400
(audience applauding)
875
00:34:12,480 --> 00:34:13,640
- Thank you.
876
00:34:13,720 --> 00:34:14,480
Thank you, Pad.
877
00:34:14,560 --> 00:34:15,720
Thank you, Postman.
878
00:34:15,800 --> 00:34:16,560
Thank you.
879
00:34:16,640 --> 00:34:18,000
- I'm sorry, stop it.
- It's fine, it's fine.
880
00:34:18,080 --> 00:34:20,360
- This is absolutely outrageous.
881
00:34:20,440 --> 00:34:22,920
Half your packages were destroyed.
882
00:34:23,000 --> 00:34:24,880
- Exactly, only half.
883
00:34:24,960 --> 00:34:26,880
Big delivery companies
could learn a thing or two
884
00:34:26,960 --> 00:34:28,560
from my care and attention.
885
00:34:28,640 --> 00:34:30,880
- So what have we learned here?
886
00:34:30,960 --> 00:34:33,720
- If you want a cheap van to
deliver very small packages,
887
00:34:33,800 --> 00:34:36,600
and you're not too fussed if
they get there in one piece,
888
00:34:36,680 --> 00:34:37,920
get yourself an Astra.
889
00:34:38,000 --> 00:34:39,720
- And the most important lesson.
890
00:34:39,800 --> 00:34:42,680
Taxidermy cats, utterly terrifying.
891
00:34:42,760 --> 00:34:43,600
Stuff of nightmares.
- Yes, horrendous.
892
00:34:43,680 --> 00:34:45,320
- Whoa.
- No, no, no, no, no, no.
893
00:34:45,400 --> 00:34:48,760
- Don't you ever, ever
speak about Jess like that.
894
00:34:48,840 --> 00:34:50,200
- Oh. (laughs)
(audience laughing)
895
00:34:50,280 --> 00:34:51,640
Right, that is not right.
896
00:34:51,720 --> 00:34:53,160
That is not right.
897
00:34:53,240 --> 00:34:55,200
- She has got feelings.
898
00:34:55,280 --> 00:34:56,840
(Freddie laughs)
899
00:34:56,920 --> 00:34:59,200
Go on, Jess, run free.
900
00:34:59,280 --> 00:35:00,960
(Paddy and Freddie laughing)
901
00:35:01,040 --> 00:35:03,880
(audience applauding)
902
00:35:03,960 --> 00:35:07,280
Anyhow, we've got to move on to something
903
00:35:07,360 --> 00:35:08,640
a little less weird,
904
00:35:08,720 --> 00:35:09,960
because to end this series,
905
00:35:10,040 --> 00:35:12,160
we're taking on our
biggest challenge to date.
906
00:35:12,240 --> 00:35:13,560
We're gonna give you some advice
907
00:35:13,640 --> 00:35:16,160
that's actually useful in the real world.
908
00:35:16,240 --> 00:35:18,120
- Easy, Pad, don't scare the horses.
909
00:35:18,200 --> 00:35:19,440
- Chris, take it away.
910
00:35:19,520 --> 00:35:20,560
- Family cars.
911
00:35:20,640 --> 00:35:22,480
There's hundreds out there to choose from.
912
00:35:22,560 --> 00:35:24,280
But if you're in the market for a new one,
913
00:35:24,360 --> 00:35:26,640
how do you even start to make a choice?
914
00:35:26,720 --> 00:35:30,200
- Well, fear you not because
"Top Gear" is here to help.
915
00:35:31,360 --> 00:35:35,720
(wind rustling)
(birds chirping)
916
00:35:35,800 --> 00:35:38,880
(airy orchestral music)
917
00:35:38,960 --> 00:35:42,160
Nowadays, when it comes to family cars,
918
00:35:42,240 --> 00:35:46,400
the range of options out
there is frankly baffling.
919
00:35:47,240 --> 00:35:50,120
From your practical,
battery-powered spaceships,
920
00:35:50,200 --> 00:35:51,680
like the Kia EV6.
921
00:35:51,760 --> 00:35:53,760
- Here we go.
922
00:35:54,920 --> 00:35:57,600
- [Paddy] To seven-seat
Dacia people-carriers
923
00:35:57,680 --> 00:35:59,880
that cost less than
your average supermini.
924
00:35:59,960 --> 00:36:02,440
All this room for 16 grand.
925
00:36:04,080 --> 00:36:06,480
I mean, crikey, there
are even estate cars,
926
00:36:06,560 --> 00:36:08,640
like this Alpina B3,
927
00:36:08,720 --> 00:36:13,760
solely designed for families
that prefer to arrive sideways.
928
00:36:13,840 --> 00:36:17,520
(brakes screeching)
929
00:36:17,600 --> 00:36:19,760
There she goes. (laughs)
930
00:36:19,840 --> 00:36:22,320
It just brings out your inner child.
931
00:36:22,400 --> 00:36:23,520
The point is,
932
00:36:23,600 --> 00:36:28,080
there are now more to choose
from than ever before.
933
00:36:28,160 --> 00:36:29,880
So with the producers helping to gather
934
00:36:29,960 --> 00:36:32,200
a 50-strong assortment
935
00:36:32,280 --> 00:36:34,400
of the newest, most interesting,
936
00:36:34,480 --> 00:36:36,960
and best-selling examples on the market.
937
00:36:37,040 --> 00:36:39,200
- [Freddie] That's a lot of family cars.
938
00:36:39,280 --> 00:36:41,280
- [Paddy] Our job is to find you
939
00:36:43,240 --> 00:36:45,320
the best of the lot.
940
00:36:45,400 --> 00:36:46,880
- [Chris] Suits you, sir.
941
00:36:46,960 --> 00:36:48,560
- Oh, look at this.
942
00:36:48,640 --> 00:36:52,680
Family cars for every
taste, every occasion.
943
00:36:52,760 --> 00:36:53,520
- [Chris] That's what it says.
944
00:36:53,600 --> 00:36:54,560
A bit of a mixed bag, isn't there?
945
00:36:54,640 --> 00:36:56,160
- It is a mixed bag.
- I'm gonna go for a rootle.
946
00:36:56,240 --> 00:36:58,240
- A rootle?
- Ooh, I like that.
947
00:36:58,920 --> 00:36:59,680
- Right, where we going here?
948
00:36:59,760 --> 00:37:00,600
Where are we going?
949
00:37:00,680 --> 00:37:02,400
- I've seen where I'm going straight away.
950
00:37:02,480 --> 00:37:03,960
I've had a couple of these over the years.
951
00:37:04,040 --> 00:37:06,000
They're not the cheapest of things.
952
00:37:06,080 --> 00:37:06,840
But I tell you what,
953
00:37:06,920 --> 00:37:08,760
Loads of space, loads of room in the back.
954
00:37:08,840 --> 00:37:10,480
You can throw all the kids in.
955
00:37:10,560 --> 00:37:11,480
They can kick the seats.
956
00:37:11,560 --> 00:37:12,640
They can do what they want.
957
00:37:12,720 --> 00:37:13,480
It's fine.
958
00:37:13,560 --> 00:37:15,000
It's a Disco.
959
00:37:15,080 --> 00:37:17,040
- Look at this little Peugeot thing here.
960
00:37:17,120 --> 00:37:17,840
Look at that.
961
00:37:17,920 --> 00:37:18,920
That's a great-looking car.
962
00:37:19,000 --> 00:37:20,480
508 with three yellow lines,
963
00:37:20,560 --> 00:37:22,680
which must denote some sportiness.
964
00:37:22,760 --> 00:37:24,480
- [Freddie] This is
bordering on midlife crisis.
965
00:37:24,560 --> 00:37:26,880
- It is.
- But you get your family in.
966
00:37:26,960 --> 00:37:27,960
I like it. (laughs)
967
00:37:28,040 --> 00:37:28,800
- So do I.
968
00:37:28,880 --> 00:37:31,000
- How much is it?
- It's 56 grand.
969
00:37:31,080 --> 00:37:34,080
- Stop it.
- 56 grand for a Peugeot.
970
00:37:34,160 --> 00:37:35,040
- All right, let's have a look.
971
00:37:35,120 --> 00:37:36,600
What else have we got here?
972
00:37:36,680 --> 00:37:37,600
Here we go.
973
00:37:37,680 --> 00:37:40,440
- Can we just stop and say how
good Kias look at the moment?
974
00:37:40,520 --> 00:37:41,640
- I've always been a fan of the Kia.
975
00:37:41,720 --> 00:37:44,200
- [Chris] But these were
a joke 15 years ago.
976
00:37:44,280 --> 00:37:47,280
Now they look better than
all the German stuff.
977
00:37:47,360 --> 00:37:49,680
- Now I'm just speaking for the dads now.
978
00:37:49,760 --> 00:37:51,640
Every dad wants to rock up at school,
979
00:37:51,720 --> 00:37:53,480
knowing they can absolutely
980
00:37:53,560 --> 00:37:55,200
blast the back doors off anything.
981
00:37:55,280 --> 00:37:57,960
That sounds wrong, but
you know what I mean.
982
00:37:58,040 --> 00:37:59,600
And this is what we've
got with the old M5 Comp.
983
00:37:59,680 --> 00:38:03,240
But when you get inside
it, not very practical.
984
00:38:03,320 --> 00:38:05,440
Cup holders are quite small.
985
00:38:05,520 --> 00:38:07,640
Side bin's tiny.
986
00:38:07,720 --> 00:38:10,200
- [Chris] Oldest family
car maker, Vauxhall.
987
00:38:10,280 --> 00:38:11,800
- What's the family, the Borrowers?
988
00:38:11,880 --> 00:38:12,760
(Chris laughs)
989
00:38:12,840 --> 00:38:14,320
Where do you put your family in that?
990
00:38:14,400 --> 00:38:15,280
- Here we go.
991
00:38:15,360 --> 00:38:18,240
I mean, just look at the storage in here.
992
00:38:18,320 --> 00:38:20,320
Look at that.
993
00:38:21,200 --> 00:38:23,120
- Come on, this is all you need.
994
00:38:23,200 --> 00:38:24,480
It's massive, it's comfortable.
995
00:38:24,560 --> 00:38:25,320
- It is.
996
00:38:25,400 --> 00:38:27,840
And I know it's a Volvo,
but it does nothing for me.
997
00:38:29,040 --> 00:38:31,520
(Paddy sighs)
998
00:38:32,920 --> 00:38:34,920
- That's what you want.
999
00:38:35,600 --> 00:38:37,080
- We gotta do something about this.
1000
00:38:37,160 --> 00:38:37,920
There's too many cars here.
1001
00:38:38,000 --> 00:38:39,080
- Where'd you go with it?
- I don't know.
1002
00:38:39,160 --> 00:38:40,320
Pad?
1003
00:38:40,400 --> 00:38:42,560
- There's something very reassuring
1004
00:38:42,640 --> 00:38:45,320
about the knobs on a Volvo.
1005
00:38:45,400 --> 00:38:47,440
- Just lovely action on them.
- Don't do that. (chuckles)
1006
00:38:47,520 --> 00:38:48,600
- Everything's good in the world.
1007
00:38:48,680 --> 00:38:49,400
You get in a Volvo,
1008
00:38:49,480 --> 00:38:51,720
you get out and you go,
"Actually, we're all right."
1009
00:38:51,800 --> 00:38:52,920
- Right, we got too many cars here.
1010
00:38:53,000 --> 00:38:55,320
We need to find a way of removing some.
1011
00:38:55,400 --> 00:38:56,640
We need to get some perspective, okay?
1012
00:38:56,720 --> 00:38:57,520
- [Paddy] Huh?
1013
00:38:57,600 --> 00:38:59,280
- [Chris] We need to get some
height on it, over there.
1014
00:38:59,360 --> 00:39:00,480
- Height?
- Straight to the point.
1015
00:39:00,560 --> 00:39:01,640
- Chris Harris, wanting height.
1016
00:39:01,720 --> 00:39:04,480
(crane whirring)
1017
00:39:06,640 --> 00:39:07,720
Chris, what are we doing up here?
1018
00:39:07,800 --> 00:39:09,080
- We're about to do some whittling.
1019
00:39:09,160 --> 00:39:10,160
Not woodwork, either.
1020
00:39:10,240 --> 00:39:13,000
Right, so the starting
point here surely has to be
1021
00:39:13,080 --> 00:39:14,760
anything over 40 grand's gotta go
1022
00:39:14,840 --> 00:39:17,040
because that's not an
affordable family car
1023
00:39:17,120 --> 00:39:18,480
that can be used most of the time, is it?
1024
00:39:18,560 --> 00:39:19,480
- 40 grand?
- But for the price of cars,
1025
00:39:19,560 --> 00:39:21,240
that's gonna be a lot of cars.
- Yeah.
1026
00:39:21,320 --> 00:39:22,640
- Also, 40 grand is when the posh car tax,
1027
00:39:22,720 --> 00:39:24,280
the premium car tax comes in.
1028
00:39:24,360 --> 00:39:27,120
- Cost of living crisis,
gotta think practical.
1029
00:39:27,200 --> 00:39:27,960
Stand back.
- Yeah.
1030
00:39:28,040 --> 00:39:32,000
- Right, get rid of the 40 grand-plus's.
1031
00:39:32,880 --> 00:39:33,600
Are you okay?
1032
00:39:33,680 --> 00:39:35,480
- Whoa! (beep)
1033
00:39:35,560 --> 00:39:39,280
(Freddie and Paddy laughing)
1034
00:39:44,080 --> 00:39:45,360
(upbeat music)
1035
00:39:45,440 --> 00:39:47,440
- Oh, the Taycan's gone.
- Oh, wow, Exodus.
1036
00:39:49,280 --> 00:39:51,040
- Giulia's gone, one Rover.
- Oh.
1037
00:39:51,120 --> 00:39:52,160
- There's the M5, Chris.
- Oh.
1038
00:39:52,240 --> 00:39:55,240
- Wave a goodbye kiss.
- Oh no.
1039
00:39:55,320 --> 00:39:58,240
- It's like a giant game
of "Guess Who?" isn't it?
1040
00:39:58,320 --> 00:39:59,120
- It is.
1041
00:39:59,200 --> 00:40:00,440
It is like "Guess Who?"
- Just drive off.
1042
00:40:00,520 --> 00:40:02,240
- In an important copyright sense,
1043
00:40:02,320 --> 00:40:03,920
it's quite unlike "Guess Who?"
1044
00:40:04,000 --> 00:40:04,760
you know what I mean?
- Yeah, yeah, of course.
1045
00:40:04,840 --> 00:40:06,360
Yeah, it is, yeah.
- Certainly.
1046
00:40:06,440 --> 00:40:07,200
Right, okay.
1047
00:40:07,280 --> 00:40:08,720
- Now, I gotta be honest,
1048
00:40:08,800 --> 00:40:10,720
I do love a whittle.
- You do?
1049
00:40:10,800 --> 00:40:11,560
- (laughs) You're a whittler.
1050
00:40:11,640 --> 00:40:12,480
- I love a whittle.
(Freddie laughs)
1051
00:40:12,560 --> 00:40:13,760
Can I have a go at it?
- Yes.
1052
00:40:13,840 --> 00:40:14,600
- I'm getting into it now.
- Yes.
1053
00:40:14,680 --> 00:40:15,440
- All right.
1054
00:40:15,520 --> 00:40:17,160
I love this.
1055
00:40:17,240 --> 00:40:19,560
Honda Jazz, that's gone.
1056
00:40:19,640 --> 00:40:20,400
- [Freddie] What?
1057
00:40:20,480 --> 00:40:23,520
- What criteria are you using
to get rid of the Honda Jazz?
1058
00:40:23,600 --> 00:40:24,960
- I just hate it.
1059
00:40:25,040 --> 00:40:27,640
- You can't get rid of
cars 'cause you hate them.
1060
00:40:27,720 --> 00:40:29,040
It's not how it works.
1061
00:40:29,120 --> 00:40:30,680
- Hatred's not a category, hatred?
1062
00:40:30,760 --> 00:40:31,560
- No, no it's not.
1063
00:40:31,640 --> 00:40:32,760
- Well, I'll tell you what, then.
1064
00:40:32,840 --> 00:40:34,720
Real-world running costs.
1065
00:40:34,800 --> 00:40:36,160
- Yes.
- It's all about the MPG.
1066
00:40:36,240 --> 00:40:37,640
- Yep.
- You're a family.
1067
00:40:37,720 --> 00:40:40,000
Petrol prices, diesel prices,
they're through the roof.
1068
00:40:40,080 --> 00:40:40,840
Gotta keep them down.
1069
00:40:40,920 --> 00:40:43,680
So I'm looking minimum
50 miles per gallon.
1070
00:40:43,760 --> 00:40:45,760
- What about electric?
1071
00:40:46,200 --> 00:40:47,280
- Yeah, that's a good point.
1072
00:40:47,360 --> 00:40:48,080
- By definition,
1073
00:40:48,160 --> 00:40:49,000
it has to be more efficient.
- Exactly, electric can stay.
1074
00:40:49,080 --> 00:40:51,400
- So anything over 50 MPG
and electric can stay.
1075
00:40:51,480 --> 00:40:52,520
- Electric's staying?
- Okay.
1076
00:40:52,600 --> 00:40:53,920
- Electric's staying, yeah.
- Okay, got you.
1077
00:40:54,000 --> 00:40:56,560
- Right, okay.
- Go on then.
1078
00:40:56,640 --> 00:41:01,600
- Anything under 50 miles
to the gallon can go.
1079
00:41:01,680 --> 00:41:02,560
(upbeat music)
1080
00:41:02,640 --> 00:41:04,600
- Oh, oh, oh.
- Whoa.
1081
00:41:04,680 --> 00:41:05,840
- The Dacia Jogger's gone.
- The Jogger's gone?
1082
00:41:05,920 --> 00:41:07,880
- Goodbye, the Jogger.
- Why's the jogger gone?
1083
00:41:07,960 --> 00:41:09,480
- 50 MPG.
- Disco's gone.
1084
00:41:09,560 --> 00:41:11,400
Disco's a great family car.
1085
00:41:11,480 --> 00:41:13,280
- Ooh, ooh.
- Another Honda gone.
1086
00:41:13,360 --> 00:41:14,120
- Aw.
- That's a surprise.
1087
00:41:14,200 --> 00:41:15,000
- [Paddy] So the Jazz has stayed,
1088
00:41:15,080 --> 00:41:16,440
but that Honda, the CR-V's gone.
1089
00:41:16,520 --> 00:41:18,800
- [Freddie] You can't get rid
of that Jazz, Pad. (laughs)
1090
00:41:18,880 --> 00:41:20,600
- Wrong Honda.
1091
00:41:20,680 --> 00:41:23,040
- Oh.
- I want that Berlingo gone,
1092
00:41:23,120 --> 00:41:24,640
but I think it's staying.
- Yeah.
1093
00:41:24,720 --> 00:41:26,720
- The Berlingo's gonna be
here for the whole day.
1094
00:41:26,800 --> 00:41:28,840
- You reckon?
- Yeah.
1095
00:41:28,920 --> 00:41:30,720
That is some very strong culling.
1096
00:41:30,800 --> 00:41:31,640
But now over to Fred.
1097
00:41:31,720 --> 00:41:33,600
What is your whittle?
1098
00:41:33,680 --> 00:41:35,680
- Now I need space, not just for myself.
1099
00:41:35,760 --> 00:41:37,800
Kids' cricket bags, I need boot space.
1100
00:41:37,880 --> 00:41:42,880
I'm gonna say anything under
500-liters boot space is off.
1101
00:41:44,440 --> 00:41:46,440
- [Chris] But that is a harsh cull.
1102
00:41:47,240 --> 00:41:50,760
- Anything under 500-liters boot space,
1103
00:41:50,840 --> 00:41:53,000
hit the road, Jack.
1104
00:41:53,080 --> 00:41:53,840
Come on, Jazz.
1105
00:41:53,920 --> 00:41:56,040
- Yes! (laughs)
- It's gone.
1106
00:41:56,120 --> 00:41:57,520
- Get out of here.
- Oh.
1107
00:41:57,600 --> 00:41:59,680
Where are they all going?
- Wow.
1108
00:41:59,760 --> 00:42:01,800
- Ooh, dear me.
1109
00:42:01,880 --> 00:42:03,200
- [Paddy] You have decimated
1110
00:42:03,280 --> 00:42:04,320
the field there, Andrew. (whistles)
1111
00:42:04,400 --> 00:42:07,720
- When I whittle, Chris, it stays whittled.
1112
00:42:07,800 --> 00:42:09,000
- Complete carnage.
- And, well,
1113
00:42:09,080 --> 00:42:10,320
science has spoken gentlemen.
1114
00:42:10,400 --> 00:42:11,920
We are not left with much.
1115
00:42:12,000 --> 00:42:13,880
(jazzy music)
1116
00:42:13,960 --> 00:42:15,880
- [Freddie] What we are left with, though,
1117
00:42:15,960 --> 00:42:18,680
are nine very tidy options.
1118
00:42:21,320 --> 00:42:23,800
From the ever-popular Nissan Qashqai,
1119
00:42:25,200 --> 00:42:28,080
to the clue's-in-the-title Skoda Superb,
1120
00:42:28,920 --> 00:42:32,640
or even the much-harder-to-love
Citroen Berlingo.
1121
00:42:33,680 --> 00:42:37,320
These are all cars with a
generous amount of boot space
1122
00:42:37,400 --> 00:42:40,120
that start at less than 40 grand,
1123
00:42:40,200 --> 00:42:44,160
and a spec that'll do north
of 50 miles to the gallon.
1124
00:42:48,280 --> 00:42:50,000
But we're not done yet.
1125
00:42:50,080 --> 00:42:52,640
(suspenseful music)
1126
00:42:52,720 --> 00:42:54,800
Because to whittle it down some more,
1127
00:42:55,760 --> 00:42:58,920
I'd come up with a drag
race with a difference.
1128
00:43:03,960 --> 00:43:06,640
- [Chris] Fred, why are you so
much further forward than me?
1129
00:43:06,720 --> 00:43:09,360
- Because this, Christopher,
is a price handicap.
1130
00:43:09,440 --> 00:43:10,680
The cheapest car at the front.
1131
00:43:10,760 --> 00:43:13,760
The more expensive the car,
the further back you start.
1132
00:43:13,840 --> 00:43:16,240
- Did you choose the car you're in?
1133
00:43:16,320 --> 00:43:17,720
- [Freddie] No, this car chose me.
1134
00:43:17,800 --> 00:43:20,560
(Chris laughing)
1135
00:43:22,040 --> 00:43:24,480
- [Paddy] Yes, in a surprise to us all,
1136
00:43:24,560 --> 00:43:27,280
Flintoff had come up
with a rather elegant way
1137
00:43:27,360 --> 00:43:30,200
of testing which of
our nine remaining cars
1138
00:43:30,280 --> 00:43:33,200
represent the best balance
of price and performance.
1139
00:43:35,200 --> 00:43:37,360
A half-mile drag race
1140
00:43:37,440 --> 00:43:40,120
where the most expensive
contender is tested,
1141
00:43:40,200 --> 00:43:44,640
the Skoda Enyaq iV
would start at the back.
1142
00:43:44,720 --> 00:43:47,760
The rest of the field then
receiving a 10-meter headstart
1143
00:43:47,840 --> 00:43:50,720
for every thousand
pounds cheaper they cost.
1144
00:43:52,200 --> 00:43:55,880
Last three to cross the
line are eliminated.
1145
00:43:55,960 --> 00:43:58,960
(suspenseful music)
1146
00:44:06,040 --> 00:44:06,840
(engine roaring)
1147
00:44:06,920 --> 00:44:08,920
Three, two, one, go.
1148
00:44:09,800 --> 00:44:11,240
Whoa.
1149
00:44:11,320 --> 00:44:12,080
There we go.
1150
00:44:12,160 --> 00:44:13,520
The Arkana's off.
1151
00:44:13,600 --> 00:44:15,600
- Go on, the Hyundai.
1152
00:44:17,560 --> 00:44:19,720
Bye-bye, Superb.
1153
00:44:19,800 --> 00:44:21,760
- I'll be screaming past them.
1154
00:44:21,840 --> 00:44:24,280
- Go, go, nothing at me.
1155
00:44:25,840 --> 00:44:27,080
- Done the Skoda.
1156
00:44:27,160 --> 00:44:28,360
- So I'm going backwards here.
1157
00:44:28,440 --> 00:44:29,400
This is just a day out.
1158
00:44:29,480 --> 00:44:30,240
Paddy's gone.
1159
00:44:30,320 --> 00:44:33,040
- There's Flintoff. (laughs)
1160
00:44:34,640 --> 00:44:37,680
Wowzers, this thing flies.
1161
00:44:37,760 --> 00:44:39,480
- Oh, the Berlingo, that is embarrassing.
1162
00:44:39,560 --> 00:44:41,720
I've been passed by a Berlingo and Harris
1163
00:44:41,800 --> 00:44:43,800
on the outside in the Skoda.
1164
00:44:44,760 --> 00:44:46,320
- We've got the Renault.
1165
00:44:46,400 --> 00:44:47,640
- Come on, we're over the line.
1166
00:44:47,720 --> 00:44:49,720
Done the Qashi.
1167
00:44:50,160 --> 00:44:52,760
(cars zooming)
1168
00:44:54,160 --> 00:44:55,640
Done the Qashi.
1169
00:44:55,720 --> 00:44:57,240
Go on.
1170
00:44:57,320 --> 00:44:59,480
- [Chris] Third, we'll take third.
1171
00:44:59,560 --> 00:45:00,840
- [Freddie] Not last.
1172
00:45:00,920 --> 00:45:03,800
I started at the front, I'm last.
1173
00:45:03,880 --> 00:45:06,240
- A nice victory there for the Tucson.
1174
00:45:06,320 --> 00:45:09,560
- This thing's got some
heart, I'm telling you.
1175
00:45:09,640 --> 00:45:12,200
- I've gotta say, the
Arkana just doesn't go.
1176
00:45:12,280 --> 00:45:14,360
By the time I get the
lads to cricket in this,
1177
00:45:14,440 --> 00:45:16,040
They'll have played ten overs.
1178
00:45:16,120 --> 00:45:18,200
(Chris laughing)
1179
00:45:18,280 --> 00:45:21,080
(upbeat music)
1180
00:45:21,160 --> 00:45:23,920
So the bang-for-your-buck drag race
1181
00:45:24,000 --> 00:45:27,160
had eliminated the electric Skoda Enyaq,
1182
00:45:27,240 --> 00:45:29,480
the Volkswagen Tiguan Allspace,
1183
00:45:29,560 --> 00:45:31,840
and the Renault Arkana.
1184
00:45:35,200 --> 00:45:38,240
Now we needed to get six down to three.
1185
00:45:38,320 --> 00:45:40,600
And with the pack so tightly matched,
1186
00:45:40,680 --> 00:45:42,920
the only way to do that was by unleashing
1187
00:45:43,000 --> 00:45:45,920
the motoring journalist
- Hi, lads.
1188
00:45:46,000 --> 00:45:47,880
- Oh, god, he's got clipboards.
1189
00:45:47,960 --> 00:45:48,960
- [Freddie] He's got three of them.
1190
00:45:49,040 --> 00:45:50,880
- Let's get down to the
nitty-gritty of car testing.
1191
00:45:50,960 --> 00:45:52,000
This is the real stuff.
1192
00:45:52,080 --> 00:45:53,760
- All right.
- Okay.
1193
00:45:53,840 --> 00:45:55,560
- Clipboard each.
- Thank you.
1194
00:45:55,640 --> 00:45:57,280
- Always leave the pen under there
1195
00:45:57,360 --> 00:45:58,600
with the nib at the bottom.
1196
00:45:58,680 --> 00:45:59,920
- Oh god.
- Better access.
1197
00:46:00,000 --> 00:46:01,200
- Okay.
- Right, here we go.
1198
00:46:01,280 --> 00:46:02,080
Legroom.
1199
00:46:02,160 --> 00:46:02,920
- Ooh.
- Ooh.
1200
00:46:03,000 --> 00:46:04,200
- Oh. I'd say the-
- I need legroom.
1201
00:46:04,280 --> 00:46:06,280
- Exactly, we've got the
perfect dummy for this.
1202
00:46:06,360 --> 00:46:07,120
- Yes.
- Okay?
1203
00:46:07,200 --> 00:46:08,040
- So I'm a dummy?
- I'd say standard
1204
00:46:08,120 --> 00:46:11,200
legroom test should be a Flintoff
sitting behind a Flintoff.
1205
00:46:11,280 --> 00:46:12,640
Would you agree?
- I like that.
1206
00:46:12,720 --> 00:46:13,480
I like that.
- Okay.
1207
00:46:13,560 --> 00:46:16,000
Okay, the Skoda Superb
is known to be a leader
1208
00:46:16,080 --> 00:46:18,080
in this field.
- Ooh.
1209
00:46:18,840 --> 00:46:20,320
- I don't like the way
you're holding that.
1210
00:46:20,400 --> 00:46:21,160
That is too low.
1211
00:46:21,240 --> 00:46:22,840
I want it here and I want it here.
1212
00:46:22,920 --> 00:46:23,680
- That's where I go.
- Right.
1213
00:46:23,760 --> 00:46:25,920
Now, out you come, Mr. Flintoff, please.
1214
00:46:26,000 --> 00:46:26,880
In the back now.
1215
00:46:26,960 --> 00:46:28,960
Okay, not every family comes from
1216
00:46:29,040 --> 00:46:31,240
the Flintoff end of the gene pool.
1217
00:46:31,320 --> 00:46:33,400
- Kids 6'4", 6'3".
1218
00:46:34,280 --> 00:46:36,560
- [Chris] But we all know legroom is key
1219
00:46:36,640 --> 00:46:38,640
to a happy backseat.
1220
00:46:39,640 --> 00:46:40,400
- [Paddy] Are you comfortable?
1221
00:46:40,480 --> 00:46:42,400
- [Freddie] Tell you what,
that's not bad, that.
1222
00:46:42,480 --> 00:46:43,240
That's all right, that.
1223
00:46:43,320 --> 00:46:44,160
- That is dead impressive, Andrew.
1224
00:46:44,240 --> 00:46:45,000
- Do you know what?
1225
00:46:45,080 --> 00:46:46,600
Even head room's fine.
- That is four.
1226
00:46:46,680 --> 00:46:49,400
- I'll give them that.
- Four points.
1227
00:46:49,480 --> 00:46:52,320
And you'd be surprised how
often the posher badges
1228
00:46:52,400 --> 00:46:56,120
trade this crucial detail
for sleeker styling.
1229
00:46:57,200 --> 00:46:58,360
- I'm just...
1230
00:46:58,440 --> 00:46:59,160
I can't...
1231
00:46:59,240 --> 00:47:00,200
No, I can't get in it.
- Come on, get in.
1232
00:47:00,280 --> 00:47:01,040
- No, I can't, look.
1233
00:47:01,120 --> 00:47:02,800
- In we go, right.
- Yeah.
1234
00:47:02,880 --> 00:47:04,360
- How far could you travel like that?
1235
00:47:04,440 --> 00:47:05,600
- [Freddie] I don't wanna
travel anywhere like this.
1236
00:47:05,680 --> 00:47:06,480
- Yeah.
- Okay.
1237
00:47:06,560 --> 00:47:08,400
- There's headroom, no legroom.
1238
00:47:08,480 --> 00:47:09,840
- That's not really working, is it?
1239
00:47:09,920 --> 00:47:11,320
- Not a chance.
1240
00:47:11,400 --> 00:47:13,400
- [Freddie] Not a chance.
1241
00:47:14,720 --> 00:47:17,400
Next on Harris's clipboard of truth
1242
00:47:17,480 --> 00:47:21,840
was that great leveller,
Isofix child seats.
1243
00:47:21,920 --> 00:47:24,480
- Let's choose this little
Skoda here, the Octavia.
1244
00:47:24,560 --> 00:47:26,000
- [Freddie] I'm on my
fourth kid with these.
1245
00:47:26,080 --> 00:47:27,480
- It's great, you're in.
- I'm in?
1246
00:47:27,560 --> 00:47:29,680
- You know, that's the
easiest one I've ever put in.
1247
00:47:29,760 --> 00:47:30,600
- Is it?
- Oh, let's get a five
1248
00:47:30,680 --> 00:47:31,960
on that.
- Seriously, bar none.
1249
00:47:32,040 --> 00:47:33,400
- Get a five on that.
1250
00:47:33,480 --> 00:47:35,520
Now do you want us to pop one
of them in the driving seat
1251
00:47:35,600 --> 00:47:36,800
for future challenges?
1252
00:47:36,880 --> 00:47:37,720
- There's no need for that at all.
1253
00:47:37,800 --> 00:47:39,720
Right, next car.
1254
00:47:39,800 --> 00:47:42,920
- [Freddie] With the Octavia
taking the Isofix top spot,
1255
00:47:43,000 --> 00:47:47,240
second place went to the
mercurial Audi Q3 Sportback.
1256
00:47:48,600 --> 00:47:50,160
- I'm straight in there.
1257
00:47:50,240 --> 00:47:52,240
I'm already at the McDonald's drive-thru
1258
00:47:52,320 --> 00:47:53,760
buying a kid's meal right now.
1259
00:47:53,840 --> 00:47:55,840
My children are so happy.
1260
00:47:56,600 --> 00:47:58,520
- [Freddie] And rounding
out the top three,
1261
00:47:58,600 --> 00:48:01,920
our drag race winner, the Hyundai Tucson.
1262
00:48:02,920 --> 00:48:05,080
- Here it is.
- Go on, then.
1263
00:48:05,160 --> 00:48:07,080
- [Paddy] There she goes.
1264
00:48:07,160 --> 00:48:09,320
- [Freddie] Closing in
on the big decision,
1265
00:48:09,400 --> 00:48:11,960
Harris had one more trick up his clipboard
1266
00:48:12,040 --> 00:48:13,600
to get us over the line.
1267
00:48:13,680 --> 00:48:16,240
- This is arguably the most
important test of the lot,
1268
00:48:16,320 --> 00:48:17,760
starting with the Qashqai.
1269
00:48:17,840 --> 00:48:19,360
Okay, you're in a car park.
1270
00:48:19,440 --> 00:48:21,600
You try and get your mobile
phone out of your pocket
1271
00:48:21,680 --> 00:48:23,400
and you drop it between the seat
1272
00:48:23,480 --> 00:48:24,480
and centre console.
- Oh, no, you don't.
1273
00:48:24,560 --> 00:48:26,760
- You now have to show us
how easy or difficult it is
1274
00:48:26,840 --> 00:48:27,720
to retrieve that phone.
1275
00:48:27,800 --> 00:48:29,640
This is critical to all car purchases.
1276
00:48:29,720 --> 00:48:30,480
Ready?
1277
00:48:30,560 --> 00:48:32,320
Three, two, one, and go, Andrew.
1278
00:48:32,400 --> 00:48:33,840
Show us what you can do.
1279
00:48:33,920 --> 00:48:34,640
- Retrieved.
1280
00:48:34,720 --> 00:48:35,560
- That's incredible.
1281
00:48:35,640 --> 00:48:38,080
For a hand that size in a car like this,
1282
00:48:38,160 --> 00:48:39,720
I think that's superb.
1283
00:48:39,800 --> 00:48:41,560
- Oh, look at this.
- Are you ready, Chris?
1284
00:48:41,640 --> 00:48:43,640
- [Chris] Yep, let's go.
1285
00:48:45,280 --> 00:48:46,040
- [Freddie] This isn't too easy.
1286
00:48:46,120 --> 00:48:47,440
- [Paddy] I've gotta say
the Berlingo's a five.
1287
00:48:47,520 --> 00:48:48,760
- It's a five.
- On the strength of that,
1288
00:48:48,840 --> 00:48:49,760
would you buy a Berlingo?
1289
00:48:49,840 --> 00:48:50,600
- Yes.
1290
00:48:50,680 --> 00:48:51,480
Here we go.
1291
00:48:51,560 --> 00:48:52,320
Ready?
1292
00:48:52,400 --> 00:48:53,480
- Are you ready?
- Are you ready?
1293
00:48:53,560 --> 00:48:55,560
- Yeah.
1294
00:48:56,680 --> 00:48:57,680
- Uh-oh.
- Oh.
1295
00:48:57,760 --> 00:48:58,880
You've done me there.
1296
00:48:58,960 --> 00:49:00,040
- I'm known to be fingers.
1297
00:49:00,120 --> 00:49:01,520
- Oh my god.
- It's gone now.
1298
00:49:01,600 --> 00:49:02,960
- No.
- Oh, it's a nightmare.
1299
00:49:03,040 --> 00:49:04,960
It's a nightmare.
- That's a one.
1300
00:49:05,040 --> 00:49:07,240
- Oh, no.
- That's a one.
1301
00:49:07,320 --> 00:49:08,680
- Zero.
- Zero, mark it down.
1302
00:49:08,760 --> 00:49:09,920
- Zero.
- No, no, no, no.
1303
00:49:10,000 --> 00:49:10,720
- Paddy, you can keep the form.
1304
00:49:10,800 --> 00:49:12,400
- Geez, I can't even get my hand back.
1305
00:49:12,480 --> 00:49:14,480
Is that in there?
1306
00:49:16,040 --> 00:49:17,160
- Chaps?
- Yeah.
1307
00:49:17,240 --> 00:49:18,840
- Science is over.
- Mm.
1308
00:49:18,920 --> 00:49:21,840
- Okay, we've now gotta whittle
down to the final three.
1309
00:49:21,920 --> 00:49:23,080
Are we in agreement
1310
00:49:23,160 --> 00:49:24,480
that the Hyundai is in the
top three for all of us?
1311
00:49:24,560 --> 00:49:25,400
- Yes.
- Yes.
1312
00:49:25,480 --> 00:49:26,520
- So that goes through.
- Done.
1313
00:49:26,600 --> 00:49:28,800
- The Skoda Octavia is in my top three.
1314
00:49:28,880 --> 00:49:30,880
Is it in yours?
1315
00:49:30,960 --> 00:49:31,720
- Yes.
1316
00:49:31,800 --> 00:49:32,560
- [Chris] Is it in yours?
1317
00:49:32,640 --> 00:49:33,560
- Yes.
1318
00:49:33,640 --> 00:49:34,640
- Ooh, this is fantastic.
1319
00:49:34,720 --> 00:49:35,560
This is what happens-
- It's good.
1320
00:49:35,640 --> 00:49:36,400
- I think we're gonna struggle now.
1321
00:49:36,480 --> 00:49:38,880
We've got a Skoda in already,
so we don't need two.
1322
00:49:38,960 --> 00:49:40,160
- [Paddy] Can I throw a curve ball in?
1323
00:49:40,240 --> 00:49:41,000
- Yeah.
- Go on.
1324
00:49:41,080 --> 00:49:41,800
- Berlingo.
1325
00:49:41,880 --> 00:49:42,640
- Why?
- Get in the-
1326
00:49:42,720 --> 00:49:43,480
- Hear me out, hear me out.
- Okay, go on.
1327
00:49:43,560 --> 00:49:45,960
- It's the only car
we've got that's full EV.
1328
00:49:46,040 --> 00:49:47,000
- Yeah.
- That's important.
1329
00:49:47,080 --> 00:49:47,840
That's important.
1330
00:49:47,920 --> 00:49:50,440
- The phone test, five out of five.
1331
00:49:50,520 --> 00:49:52,960
These are the ones where when
you're in a car with the kids,
1332
00:49:53,040 --> 00:49:54,480
them are the problems you have.
1333
00:49:54,560 --> 00:49:55,720
- That is a strong argument.
1334
00:49:55,800 --> 00:49:57,240
- Loads of boot space.
- I'll give you the
1335
00:49:57,320 --> 00:49:58,760
practicality.
- Yep.
1336
00:49:58,840 --> 00:50:00,720
- All over it.
- Yep.
1337
00:50:00,800 --> 00:50:02,840
Also, we've not mentioned this.
1338
00:50:02,920 --> 00:50:04,720
- Sliding door.
- Wonderful, practical.
1339
00:50:04,800 --> 00:50:05,560
- I know.
1340
00:50:05,640 --> 00:50:07,160
Okay, I'm gonna go with McGuinness.
1341
00:50:07,240 --> 00:50:08,640
The Berlingo stays in.
1342
00:50:08,720 --> 00:50:10,600
It's the quirky choice.
- Right.
1343
00:50:10,680 --> 00:50:11,440
- Yeah?
- Yeah.
1344
00:50:11,520 --> 00:50:12,280
- So we've got them.
1345
00:50:12,360 --> 00:50:13,560
We've got our three.
1346
00:50:13,640 --> 00:50:16,360
- Science, science.
1347
00:50:16,440 --> 00:50:18,600
(upbeat music)
1348
00:50:18,680 --> 00:50:20,960
- [Chris] Now that, ladies and gentlemen,
1349
00:50:21,040 --> 00:50:23,040
is how you use a clipboard.
1350
00:50:23,480 --> 00:50:25,440
Because whether it's
the perfectly practical
1351
00:50:25,520 --> 00:50:27,920
diesel Skoda Octavia estate,
1352
00:50:28,000 --> 00:50:30,880
the really rather handsome
hybrid Hyundai Tucson,
1353
00:50:30,960 --> 00:50:34,840
or the staggeringly
spacious Citroen e-Berlingo,
1354
00:50:34,920 --> 00:50:37,480
pick one of these for your next family car
1355
00:50:37,560 --> 00:50:39,560
and you won't be disappointed.
1356
00:50:41,240 --> 00:50:45,000
But we tasked ourselves
with picking a winner.
1357
00:50:45,080 --> 00:50:46,040
And to do that,
1358
00:50:46,120 --> 00:50:49,760
McGuinness reckoned he'd
come up with the ideal test.
1359
00:50:50,680 --> 00:50:54,160
- So the last one, real-world experience.
1360
00:50:54,240 --> 00:50:57,480
Life on the road with
your family in the car.
1361
00:50:57,560 --> 00:50:58,560
That's the next test.
1362
00:50:58,640 --> 00:51:00,080
- What's that test?
1363
00:51:00,160 --> 00:51:01,360
- Glad you asked.
1364
00:51:01,440 --> 00:51:03,720
It's a classic seat-switch race.
1365
00:51:03,800 --> 00:51:05,280
We're gonna set up from here.
1366
00:51:05,360 --> 00:51:06,680
You've got a stopwatch, start that.
1367
00:51:06,760 --> 00:51:09,160
I'm gonna go around to
the little box over there,
1368
00:51:09,240 --> 00:51:10,840
I'm gonna stop in the box,
1369
00:51:10,920 --> 00:51:15,240
then we're gonna swap round,
in the car, anti-clockwise.
1370
00:51:15,320 --> 00:51:18,240
Me, you, you here.
1371
00:51:18,320 --> 00:51:19,640
Then you set off driving
1372
00:51:19,720 --> 00:51:21,600
all the way back around
over the finish line,
1373
00:51:21,680 --> 00:51:22,680
stop the watch.
1374
00:51:22,760 --> 00:51:24,040
- How often does the child
1375
00:51:24,120 --> 00:51:25,560
come from the back and drive the car?
1376
00:51:25,640 --> 00:51:27,160
- Well, every time when Pad's driving.
1377
00:51:27,240 --> 00:51:28,000
- Correct.
1378
00:51:28,080 --> 00:51:28,960
It's the easiest way.
1379
00:51:29,040 --> 00:51:30,320
You can have a beer then, can't you?
1380
00:51:30,400 --> 00:51:31,160
(Freddie laughing)
1381
00:51:31,240 --> 00:51:33,160
Right, come on, kids.
1382
00:51:33,240 --> 00:51:34,600
Great.
- Ready?
1383
00:51:34,680 --> 00:51:36,880
- Three, two, one, go.
- Let's go.
1384
00:51:38,720 --> 00:51:40,880
(upbeat music)
1385
00:51:40,960 --> 00:51:42,200
- [Paddy] Let's face it,
1386
00:51:42,280 --> 00:51:44,560
the very best family journeys
1387
00:51:44,640 --> 00:51:46,920
are the ones that are over and done with
1388
00:51:47,000 --> 00:51:49,000
as fast as possible.
1389
00:51:49,360 --> 00:51:50,120
- Could go to this thing,
1390
00:51:50,200 --> 00:51:51,480
doesn't it?
- Oh, wow, yes.
1391
00:51:51,560 --> 00:51:52,320
That's all right, that.
1392
00:51:52,400 --> 00:51:54,000
- [Paddy] And to keep
the peace along the way,
1393
00:51:54,080 --> 00:51:58,200
you really need as much room
for everyone as you can get.
1394
00:51:58,280 --> 00:52:00,160
- Paddy.
- Switch it.
1395
00:52:00,240 --> 00:52:02,040
- Swap, go.
- I don't like this at all.
1396
00:52:02,120 --> 00:52:02,880
- You come back here.
1397
00:52:02,960 --> 00:52:04,120
You come back here.
(Chris laughing)
1398
00:52:04,200 --> 00:52:06,360
You're too big and you tickle people.
1399
00:52:06,440 --> 00:52:08,200
- Don't do that.
- Let's do that.
1400
00:52:08,280 --> 00:52:10,280
- Don't do that.
- Grab my foot. (laughs)
1401
00:52:10,360 --> 00:52:11,440
Grab my foot.
- Ow. (laughs)
1402
00:52:11,520 --> 00:52:14,680
Ow.
- Okay, come on. (laughs)
1403
00:52:14,760 --> 00:52:18,000
What, you've got my foot.
- Ah.
1404
00:52:18,080 --> 00:52:19,520
- Actually got my other one.
- Hang on, the seatbelt.
1405
00:52:19,600 --> 00:52:22,120
- Oh.
- Whoa, that's quick.
1406
00:52:22,200 --> 00:52:22,960
- [Chris] There she goes.
1407
00:52:23,040 --> 00:52:24,760
- [Paddy] And that's why
when it comes to finding
1408
00:52:24,840 --> 00:52:26,640
the ultimate family car...
1409
00:52:26,720 --> 00:52:27,600
She's lively.
1410
00:52:27,680 --> 00:52:29,320
She really is the quickest of the lot.
1411
00:52:29,400 --> 00:52:31,960
You want to be looking
out for that magic place
1412
00:52:32,040 --> 00:52:34,560
where space meets pace.
1413
00:52:34,640 --> 00:52:36,320
- You better get in that.
- Oh no.
1414
00:52:36,400 --> 00:52:38,520
- Oh my god, here we go.
- Oh, stop.
1415
00:52:38,600 --> 00:52:41,000
- I'm a child, I'm a child.
- Oh. (laughing)
1416
00:52:41,080 --> 00:52:43,440
- Stop it, stop it.
- I like you down there.
1417
00:52:43,520 --> 00:52:45,640
- [Chris] Here we go.
1418
00:52:45,720 --> 00:52:47,240
Quick.
1419
00:52:47,320 --> 00:52:48,080
Stop.
1420
00:52:48,160 --> 00:52:48,960
(stopwatch beeps)
1421
00:52:49,040 --> 00:52:49,920
What's the time?
1422
00:52:50,000 --> 00:52:51,240
- 1:34:16.
- Ooh.
1423
00:52:51,320 --> 00:52:54,320
- Tell you what, I am mighty
impressed by this thing.
1424
00:52:54,400 --> 00:52:57,200
At just over a minute 1/2 to get round,
1425
00:52:57,280 --> 00:53:01,280
the hybrid Tucson had laid
down a serious benchmark.
1426
00:53:03,160 --> 00:53:04,880
The only question now was,
1427
00:53:04,960 --> 00:53:07,440
could it be beaten by the e-Berlingo?
1428
00:53:07,520 --> 00:53:08,920
- Three, two, one.
1429
00:53:09,000 --> 00:53:09,760
(stopwatch beeps)
1430
00:53:09,840 --> 00:53:11,120
- Ooh.
- Oh, it's flat on then.
1431
00:53:11,200 --> 00:53:12,520
- What's going, Fred?
1432
00:53:12,600 --> 00:53:14,560
- Flat on.
- Let it go.
1433
00:53:14,640 --> 00:53:16,640
Or the Octavia.
1434
00:53:17,520 --> 00:53:19,120
- Go.
(stopwatch beeps)
1435
00:53:19,200 --> 00:53:21,120
- Stalled at the line.
- Oh, you think so?
1436
00:53:21,200 --> 00:53:23,600
(rock music)
1437
00:53:25,560 --> 00:53:26,880
- [Freddie] Oh, it's a roller, isn't it?
1438
00:53:26,960 --> 00:53:27,680
Oh.
1439
00:53:27,760 --> 00:53:29,400
- It's anything but a roller.
1440
00:53:29,480 --> 00:53:30,560
- Oh, oh.
- Oh.
1441
00:53:30,640 --> 00:53:31,480
- Use all the track,
1442
00:53:31,560 --> 00:53:32,320
get her out there.
- All right,
1443
00:53:32,400 --> 00:53:33,400
well, we're gonna get
a little nibble there.
1444
00:53:33,480 --> 00:53:34,320
- Get her out there.
1445
00:53:34,400 --> 00:53:35,480
Get her out there.
1446
00:53:35,560 --> 00:53:36,720
(suspenseful music)
1447
00:53:36,800 --> 00:53:38,800
- Right, now can you stop in the box.
1448
00:53:40,840 --> 00:53:41,600
- I like it.
- Ah.
1449
00:53:41,680 --> 00:53:43,280
- We can walk around this car.
1450
00:53:43,360 --> 00:53:44,120
- I'm not sure about this.
1451
00:53:44,200 --> 00:53:45,200
We're about to get into it.
1452
00:53:45,280 --> 00:53:46,160
- Whoa.
- Ooh.
1453
00:53:46,240 --> 00:53:48,200
- Oh, I missed it.
- Oh, you missed the box,
1454
00:53:48,280 --> 00:53:49,920
you idiot.
- You missed it.
1455
00:53:50,000 --> 00:53:52,320
(elegant orchestral music)
1456
00:53:52,400 --> 00:53:53,480
- I'm gonna gonna come back to you.
1457
00:53:53,560 --> 00:53:54,480
I'm gonna come back to you.
- That's not a problem.
1458
00:53:54,560 --> 00:53:55,320
- Come on, get in there.
- Look at that.
1459
00:53:55,400 --> 00:53:58,160
- I'll just move over.
- There we go, Pad.
1460
00:54:00,720 --> 00:54:02,920
- That is just quality.
- There we go.
1461
00:54:03,000 --> 00:54:05,240
- That is lovely stuff.
- May we, may we.
1462
00:54:05,320 --> 00:54:06,080
- That is.
1463
00:54:06,160 --> 00:54:08,680
That's a demonstration of
the Berlingo's real talent.
1464
00:54:08,760 --> 00:54:10,480
- Move over.
- You go first, you go first.
1465
00:54:10,560 --> 00:54:13,480
- I'll move over.
(Paddy laughing)
1466
00:54:13,560 --> 00:54:14,960
- Get off.
- Come on, son.
1467
00:54:15,040 --> 00:54:17,760
(Freddie and Paddy laughing)
1468
00:54:17,840 --> 00:54:20,440
(upbeat music)
1469
00:54:22,560 --> 00:54:25,080
No, no. (laughs)
- Ah, no. (laughs)
1470
00:54:25,160 --> 00:54:26,560
- Oh, my undies have gone.
1471
00:54:26,640 --> 00:54:28,720
Oh, my undies have gone. (laughs)
1472
00:54:28,800 --> 00:54:32,080
(car horn blaring)
1473
00:54:32,160 --> 00:54:34,000
No, look.
1474
00:54:34,080 --> 00:54:37,760
Look at my undies.
(Paddy laughing)
1475
00:54:37,840 --> 00:54:40,880
You don't do that to your kids.
1476
00:54:40,960 --> 00:54:42,000
We're off.
1477
00:54:42,080 --> 00:54:42,960
(upbeat music)
1478
00:54:43,040 --> 00:54:45,760
- [Paddy] After a very
revealing seat swap...
1479
00:54:45,840 --> 00:54:46,800
- I'm not even bothered now.
1480
00:54:46,880 --> 00:54:48,160
I've got my pants around my ankles.
1481
00:54:48,240 --> 00:54:49,440
Look where my pants are.
1482
00:54:49,520 --> 00:54:52,280
- [Paddy] It was now just
a short sprint to the line.
1483
00:54:52,360 --> 00:54:53,120
- Come on.
1484
00:54:53,200 --> 00:54:55,200
- Berlingo, go, go.
1485
00:54:56,520 --> 00:54:59,120
- [Paddy] To discover
which of our finalists
1486
00:54:59,200 --> 00:55:01,800
would take family car glory.
1487
00:55:01,880 --> 00:55:03,080
(stopwatch beeps)
1488
00:55:03,160 --> 00:55:07,560
(Chris sighs)
(Paddy groans)
1489
00:55:07,640 --> 00:55:09,440
- He has flesh on that seat.
1490
00:55:09,520 --> 00:55:12,080
(orchestral music)
1491
00:55:12,160 --> 00:55:14,680
And with a time of one minute 41,
1492
00:55:14,760 --> 00:55:17,560
and just over two minutes respectively,
1493
00:55:17,640 --> 00:55:20,880
neither the palatial but
ponderous e-Berlingo,
1494
00:55:20,960 --> 00:55:23,800
nor the speedy but snug Octavia estate
1495
00:55:23,880 --> 00:55:25,560
had quite done enough
1496
00:55:25,640 --> 00:55:28,920
to knock the perfectly-pitched
Tucson hybrid
1497
00:55:29,000 --> 00:55:31,000
off the top spot.
1498
00:55:31,800 --> 00:55:34,200
Which meant, after what
can only be described
1499
00:55:34,280 --> 00:55:36,360
as a pretty rigorous day's testing...
1500
00:55:36,440 --> 00:55:38,440
- Look at his.
(Paddy laughing)
1501
00:55:38,520 --> 00:55:40,480
Look. (laughs)
1502
00:55:40,560 --> 00:55:41,600
- No, it's not funny.
- Oh.
1503
00:55:41,680 --> 00:55:45,320
- [Paddy] In the end, there
could be only one conclusion.
1504
00:55:45,400 --> 00:55:46,760
- That Hyundai is the best car.
1505
00:55:46,840 --> 00:55:48,200
- Yeah, that's what science says.
1506
00:55:48,280 --> 00:55:49,160
- You wouldn't have anything else.
1507
00:55:49,240 --> 00:55:50,400
- Yep, exactly.
- For that money,
1508
00:55:50,480 --> 00:55:52,640
with those criteria.
- Yeah.
1509
00:55:52,720 --> 00:55:54,120
Is that how you did it on Auto Car?
1510
00:55:54,200 --> 00:55:55,400
- Not quite, no.
1511
00:55:55,480 --> 00:55:58,920
(grand orchestral music)
1512
00:56:05,640 --> 00:56:06,840
(audience applauding)
1513
00:56:06,920 --> 00:56:09,920
- That was a very good car.
- Very, very good.
1514
00:56:10,000 --> 00:56:12,000
- Love it, love it.
1515
00:56:13,240 --> 00:56:14,440
- No complaints.
1516
00:56:14,520 --> 00:56:15,440
No complaints.
1517
00:56:15,520 --> 00:56:18,720
- I'll admit, a wrestling
match in the back of a Hyundai,
1518
00:56:18,800 --> 00:56:20,240
it's not the most conventional way
1519
00:56:20,320 --> 00:56:22,160
to decide between a bunch of family cars.
1520
00:56:22,240 --> 00:56:22,960
(audience laughing)
1521
00:56:23,040 --> 00:56:23,880
But I think we all agree on this one.
1522
00:56:23,960 --> 00:56:26,240
We actually came up with the right answer.
1523
00:56:26,320 --> 00:56:29,400
The car we'd recommend
is the Hyundai Tucson.
1524
00:56:29,480 --> 00:56:31,800
(audience applauding)
1525
00:56:31,880 --> 00:56:32,640
- So I tell you what,
1526
00:56:32,720 --> 00:56:35,160
we may be mavericks, but we get results.
1527
00:56:35,240 --> 00:56:36,000
- Correct.
1528
00:56:36,080 --> 00:56:36,880
It's a very good car.
1529
00:56:36,960 --> 00:56:37,920
And it's further evidence
1530
00:56:38,000 --> 00:56:39,840
that Hyundai is smashing it at the moment,
1531
00:56:39,920 --> 00:56:42,720
making proper hot hatches,
interesting electric cars,
1532
00:56:42,800 --> 00:56:44,240
worthy family cars.
1533
00:56:44,320 --> 00:56:45,200
They're on a roll.
1534
00:56:45,280 --> 00:56:47,040
- Well, what a way to sign off.
1535
00:56:47,120 --> 00:56:49,560
Because that's the end of
the show, and the series.
1536
00:56:49,640 --> 00:56:51,560
- [Audience] Aw.
1537
00:56:51,640 --> 00:56:52,640
- But we'll see you all next year.
1538
00:56:52,720 --> 00:56:54,840
- [Audience] Yay.
1539
00:56:54,920 --> 00:56:55,640
- Thanks so much for watching.
1540
00:56:55,720 --> 00:56:56,560
Goodnight.
(audience applauding)
1541
00:56:56,640 --> 00:56:59,640
(upbeat rock music)
1542
00:57:07,640 --> 00:57:11,480
(upbeat rock music continues)
1543
00:57:19,360 --> 00:57:23,200
(upbeat rock music continues)
1544
00:57:31,280 --> 00:57:33,560
(no audio)
