that's great news after what Clarkson had said a while back!

hopefully it's a full series, but either way it'll be a great return I'm sure 8)

Finally !! Can't wait !!

I'm not really expecting to see any car in particular :roll: Not many supercars were lunched in the last months. But I would love to see a proper review of the Zonda F, and a decent driving of the Veyron, on the track, and a lap time, obviously.

Too bad it's to soon to see the 599 GTB reviewed

From what i've heard it'll be an 8 episode season so it is full but i think that they'll also have a long break because of the World Cup, but i don't know how long the break might be if they do have one.

things we might expect: Macca GTR LM lap time... of 1:17.4.... i hear it was filmed using Nick Masons' car... but wont make the time sheets since its not using original tires.

perhaps a Veyron lap time; C6 Z06; Viper Coupe possibly, Solstice/Sky roadsters, 997 Turbo/GT3 mabey...? Cayenne Turbo S, M6, AMG 63, new S class, Flying spur, Subaru WRX/STi, and obligitory Evo, MTM Apollo, Orca, 2006 Gallardo, LP640 Murcialago, 599 GTB....

im only begginning to touch the water here... so many possiblilities

I'm really hoping for a proper review on the Zonda F , 997 Turbo, 997 GT3 and the new BMW M coupe.

Can't wait for quality entertainment to get back .. TG..

Fantastic!! but to be honest, I'mn wondering what cars will have the chance tro appear. I guess the 997 GT3 and Turbo and the Gallrdo SE will all make it, the 599 definatelly not, the Murceialgo LP640 maybe. I'd like them to test the Saleen for once but somehow I doubt that will happen

I doubt the Zonda F will be tested again as it was already timed and tested (shortly) by James ... I would bet on the Veyron (lap time), the GT3 and maybe the 599 GTB and LP 640 as I think that press tests are made these weeks ... Maybe we will see some english cars like the Caterham CSR and why not the FXX on Top Gear test track ? Just a bit more than 2 weeks to wait
