Top Gear

Chris, Freddie and Paddy hit the German autobahn in a trio of shiny new supercars from Ferrari, Pagani and Porsche. At the other end of the speed scale, they try out the latest electric micro-cars with a treasure hunt around Paris.

Freddie Flintoff samples the brutal, full-contact motorsport of F1 stock cars, while Chris gets to grips with Mercedes' ‘F1 car for the road', the fearsomely complicated AMG One. Paddy, meanwhile, takes a ride in the luxurious new Range Rover.

Chris and Freddie check out a new hot hatch from Honda and an old hot hatch from Peugeot. Paddy, meanwhile, takes on his toughest challenge to date: getting a team of young amateur racers up to professional motorsport standard in just two months.

Chris, Freddie and Paddy deploy science to find the best family car you can buy today, and they set out to buy delivery vans on a budget. Paddy heads to Italy to test out Ferrari's beautiful new Daytona SP3 - and do a spot of minicabbing.
