The reason for the lacklustre final show is because of the budget cuts.

"So in 2009 the budget cut has to affect what you watch, and [Jeremy] Clarkson has had a brainwave in making this as painless as possible," wrote Wilman.

"Basically instead of trimming back a little bit on every show – losing a helicopter here or a truck crash there – we'll endeavour to make 13 of our 14 shows as per the usual [Hollywood producer/director] Jerry Bruckheimer standard, and then the last one, when we only have a tenner left, will be utter, utter ****e."

Love it, and i think he is right that it may be as close to perfect as possible (Ohhhh yeah, Porsche, go beep yourself, this is the one i want!).

Such a beautiful car, but still a rotten ending.

It does however make me a lot more happy, to find out that the owner of the company which produces the majority of speed cameras, has just been banned for 12 months as he was caught by the SINGLE last policeman on the road, and he was doing over 120mph. ;)

Only a slight win, but a win nonetheless. ;) :lol: :lol: :ol: :lol: :lol:

Just watched it again and it is indeed a brilliant piece. It's obvious that all the budget for the last show went into this.

Which album is the soundtrack from -V-? I'm feverishly downloading some Eno stuff at the mo but can't find that track listed on any of his stuff :-/

Did anyone else think that Clarkson wanted to mess about doing the advert for that Diesel Scirocco and when it came to the Aston at the end it was an advert :lol:
