In this episode, the trio tests coupes; Hyundai Coupe put up against the Toyota Celica. Jason drives driver's cars on a budget and Mike with the Driven film crew tries to recreate the Mini stunt from the cult classic film "The Italian Job".
Also on the episode, Mike announces the WRC-sponsored competition to win a Mitsubishi Evo VII.
As for the "in-car crooning" competition, it was announced that Kenwood (if I spelt that right) would donate a grand worth of audio equipment to the best singer, by which the chosen song for the credits was Spandau Ballet's "Gold".
Picky hitcher is not featured that much on this copy of the episode, because the @ChrisPriceCars copy of the episode was so damaged that I just didn't want to make anyone's ears explode from the recording failing to get a stereo track and making a shart noise when it tries to, as well as the very annoying audio desync caused by the video part being sped up, while the audio couldn't keep up with that. I did previously restore the episode for the Revamped Car Shows project (by which it should be available on that project's Google Drive) but I decided to not use it for this upload, not because of me hating the episode, but because of this annoying fault it has.
Great thanks to @assortedvideos4899 for providing this episode in much better quality than it was previously available on this channel (which you can watch on Archived Top Rare).
