It was Vicky testing it. She went through the fancy new tech, the gearbox and the handling. Very positive.

The episode also included a head-to-head battle between the Merc E63 and the Audi RS6.

It also had a feature on Volvo's claim that nobody will ever die in a crash in one of their cars by 2020.

If it's not already at finalgear.com, it no doubt will be soon I expect. It's episode 17x06 you're looking for.

The fifth gear program is more informative than top gear and Vicky is OK in general as track driver.
