Series 18 - Episode 1 of 7
Jeremy Clarkson, Richard Hammond and James May head to Italy for a supercar shootout featuring the Lamborghini Aventador, the McLaren MP4-12C and the Noble M600.
Their trip starts at the incredible Nardo test track, a facility so massive it is visible from space, before heading north for a nerve-wracking drive around the centre of Rome. The journey concludes at the legendary Imola circuit, a track challenging enough to have embarrassed many an F1 driver, with a timed challenge against the incredible skills of the Stig.
Back in the studio, the presenters look forward to some car highlights of 2012 and another top celebrity guest takes the wheel of the Reasonably Priced Car.

Being an American...I prefer the UK version. In fact I could not even make it through the first episode of the US version.

Genuinely, I thought the most recent US ones shown here in the UK (we're on the 2nd series - episodes where they bought 4x4s, and another where they compare "dualie" trucks) were far better than the recent guff that the UK TG have rolled out.

Love TGUSA and the fact that one of them can actually drive
Tanner Foust is a renowned stunt driver and X-Games rally gold medallist who's also done the business at Pikes Peak and in international ice racing championships. Not only that, he beat Jenson Button during 2008's Race of Champions.
Like a11y said as well these guys look like they are having fun, Think TGUK is better production but prefer the American presenters
