Storyline

Richard and James test the Ford S-MAX, Mercedes-Benz B-Class and Vauxhall Zafira VXR in their search for the best people mover. Jeremy test drives the Lamborghini Gallardo Spyder. James races two French Parkour acrobats across Liverpool in a Peugeot 207 1.6 litre diesel. The team are challenged to build a Caterham Seven kit car in the time it takes The Stig to drive one from Caterham, Surrey to the Knockhill racing circuit in Scotland, but a last minute twist changes the result.

Quotes

Himself - Presenter: I should probably explain that these aren't just any young men. They are masters of something called Parkour.
[One of the Parkour masters runs in front of his car and makes him stop. The other vaults over the hood]
Himself - Presenter: It's a French invention and involves that sort of thing. Running around the city, leaping across buildings and benches. You know, keeps them off the street.
