5th Gear - Last night and Sunday 22nd
Discussion
I don't remember seeing a GTR on 5th Gear last night.
The Road cars were the Mini One, Honda Jazz and Ford Focus. The tracks cars were the Ariel Atom, Caterham R500 (I think) and the Noble M12GTO. The tourers were BMW M5, Range Rover and Mercedes SL55AMG. The super cars were the Murcielago, Enzo and C12, the first two didn't appear on the show though.
He chose the Mini, Caterham and SL55. He couldn't justify the cost of the C12 so it was a dream car for him.
Personal I would have gone for the M12 but then I'm biased!

In fairness DeR.
If his Bentley was new, at some stage he's stumped up/financed over £225k on a car. So clearly he's not s cheap skate. I just think having his mansion on TV, with the presenters mentioning his plane, helicopter and yacht etc he didn't wish to come across as a flash with the cash smartarse.
Personally I was a little concerned at the selction they gathered. One minute they're saying the car should have no waiting list and then they're wheeling out a SL55AMG?
For the record, IMHO Mr Billionaire should be keeping the bentley Azure and purchasing the following:
E55AMG - longdistance workhorse.
Mini CooperS - Town car
R500 - track car (quicker than the R300)
Cayenne Turbo - Off Roader (XXXX the wait give William L. or Tommy H. a premium, lifes too short).

Hail Daz!
Sorry Boss, I wasn't implying that PC (one of my heroes, quite frankly!) was a cheapskate!
Christ - did you see his pad? Made even your country pile seem a little modest!
No, fair dinkums to Masser Caudwell, he's a star and quite frankly, what an awesome position to be in!
For what it's worth, my prefs would be thus:
Towncar - snap! - Cooper S
Track - SR3 Radical
Power cruiser - CL600 (new biturbo)
Posh meets - Gotta be the one he already has!
Uber car - How about a Gemballa GTR EVO 750?
