New Top Gear (2011) BBC 2 8PM!

Jeremy Clarkson, Richard Hammond and James May visit Albania to test three luxurious vehicles - the Rolls-Royce Ghost, Bentley Mulsanne and Mercedes-Benz S65 AMG. Jeremy also drives three high-performance hatchbacks in the form of the limited-edition Ford Focus RS500, Prodrive-developed Cosworth Impreza STi CS400 and one-off Volvo C30 PPC. Jonathan Ross is the Star in the Reasonably Priced Car

I'm looking forward to the hot hatch bit :)
 
Prodrive had nothing to do with this STi. I'm not expecting great things from it, that Volvo is a bit of a beast though ! The STi is another case of the FQ400 Evo, too expensive for the performance (relative to a slightly tweaked sti) too laggy and generally lacks the overall feel of something like Litchfield's Type 25 due to the lack of attention paid to the steering etc. O well should be fast though :)
 
Meh missed the first 10 mins...

Why didn't they make more of them RS500's or price them higher ? Or did they sell them at a loss ?
Shame they also don't sell the Volvo.

That Rolls is ugly... looks like someone dropped a rock on the bonnet and the only spare they could find at the scrapyard was the wrong colour.
