Motoring news and views. Jeremy, Richard and James immerse themselves in the world of classic cars to find out if they really are more fun than modern machines.
Jeremy Clarkson, Richard Hammond and James May immerse themselves in the world of classic cars to find out if they really are, as the anoraks claim, more fun than modern machines. Armed with a budget of £3,000 each, they attempt to buy a pre-1982 car at auction. Rather than undertaking a series of challenges to see who has got the best deal, they are sent off to Majorca to take part in one very big challenge, a seemingly unfathomable classic car rally.
Also, Jeremy drives with dinosaurs in the new BMW Z4 and Nissan 370Z, and rock god Brian Johnson is the Star in a Reasonably Priced Car.
