Product Description
For my all new DVD, I’m in the South of France.
My base? - The high-tech testing ground for Formula One - Circuit Paul Ricard. My mission? - To find find my favourite car of the year.
My candidates? - For starters there's a pair of Ferraris... the V12, 6.3 litre FF and the 458.
There’s the UK challenger to the 458... McLaren’s MP4-12C. Joining the action are the latest gizmo-laden Nissan GTR, Porsche's GT2 RS, the 570-horsepower Lamborghini Performante and the built-for-fun BMW 1M.
Helping me are tame racing driver The Stig and the not-so-tame Formula One new boy, Karun Chandhok. I look into the future - in the shape of the hybrid-engined Mugen Honda CR-Z... And there are blasts from the past as well. The beautiful Eagle Speedster - a modern twist on the iconic, timeless E-Type...with its 4.7 litre engine - and an eye-watering £500,000 price tag. And there's the all new Jensen Interceptor R with its 6.2 litre Corvette motor.
Plus, from the minds of boffins at a German museum, there’s the mighty Brutus...a vintage car fitted with a flame-spitting BMW airplane engine. Also there’s enough in-your-face power to flambé your eyebrows from the single-seater, super-lightweight B.A.C. Mono - capable of 0-60 in 2.8 seconds.
Circuit Paul Ricard tests all these cars and more to the limit...
But it's not all about performance on the track. I take to the open road to see if small can be beautiful. I squeeze my sizeable know-how into the bonkers Citroen DS3 Racing, the pocket rocket Abarth 500C and the dinky Renault Clio Cup.
How to sum up all this action...Well, I sit in a chair, a man has a mishap....And a brown car goes round a corner....
What more could you want?...
ENJOY.....

A must for all Clarkson fans. Blu-ray really brings the content of the dvd to the fore, the clarity is excellent.

Short but good
This is the shortest Clarkson DVD at only just over 60 minutes long and is not the best of them all, but is still very good and interesting with a decent selection of cars. Read more

This is one of my favourite Clarkson DVD's, there's no destruction, explosions or foolishness to keep 8 year olds entertained, it's just a no nonsense hour for true petrol heads.

The best 2011 motoring DVD in the world!
Good fulsome entertainment. Lots of tyres were killed in the making of this DVD! If the DVD was a video tape, it would be worn out on the segment with the Eagle E type!

Just a long episode of Top Gear
Not a great DVD by clarkson if I'm honest, it's like a long episode of Top Gear, except it's not as slickly edited and not as funny. Read more
