Part 1 was on something different.

No no - last weeks episode detailed construction of the A380 wing.

Good grief, Black trolley wheels-we ordered grey, and as for that discoloured floor tile-it will keep Ron awake for years. I hope his "eye for detail" has nailed all of the current hiccups with the 12C, mind you looking at the F1 team's pit-stops, they had some real bloopers this year too, Jenson's unconnected wheel being the most infamous, and strategy call's =hmmm! So c'mon McLaren bring us the world beater it almost is.

Very interesting program but I can't help thinking that McLaren have made a mistake.

It appears to be a soulless car made in a soulless factory competing in a sector of the market that's cut-throat at a time of global recession.

Given the volume of cars they are planning to produce and the price-tag where are all the buyers going to come from?

I hope I'm wrong.
