Episode 8

An opportunity for car enthusiasts, without minimum £67,000 to spare, to fantasise about owning and driving a Ferrari. In this programme devoted to the car more deeply immersed in motoring mystique than any other marque, presenter Jeremy Clarkson, a self-confessed addict, visits the factory, interviews owners and test drives the new 456GT, the world’s fastest four-seater car. “This is classical elegance,” says Clarkson. “And it’s four times more powerful than your Golf GTi.” For those still dreaming, a top of the range Ferrari — the 512TR — costs almost £125,000 and has a top speed of 195mph.
