Yeah I was thinking that they could've got a semi-banger to tear up as that one was MINT.

Only an 11-odd year old one though, so shedloads of them around in just as good condition. Although the trailing edge of the front wings looked a bit brown when they'd been stuck back on!

No doubt the value of late old minis will now go through the roof lol

Overall, pretty crap though really. Just recycled jokes we've already seen or spent 5 minutes faffing around feigning suspense at a joke that isn't really all that funny.

The India special wasn't all that special sadly. I know its always been scripted and staged to a degree, but in previous ones theres usually some amusing stuff that wasn't clearly planned out before hand, but this one didn't feel like that at all. Still worth watching, but they really shouldn't be doing the same old gags every time, breaking each others air con, signs that become rude and the like are just so predictable now.

because they snatched the winch line back to the upper panel for some reason lol

wasnt the best wouldnt watch again not a patch on bolivia or polar, the budget for the cars was too big and the cars to reliable should of give them 1k to buy a british car not 7k then things would of gone wrong

Yeah a smaller budget and less of a choice not just anything British.
