I am afraid my contact has left the program now so no more inside news I am afraid.
I have set the series link on Sky and I suggest you all do the same.

I've checked the programme listings and absolutely no mention of the RX-8 in programme 1
"Jeremy Clarkson and the team return with a new series of the motoring magazine. Richard Hammond celebrates 40 years of the Porsche 911 by taking the GT3 to its limits, James May tries out the new BMW 5 series and Ford's latest supercar, the GT40, is tested. Plus, a tribute to the endurance of the Toyota pickup, and a chance to see how the show's 20-year-old Jaguar finally met its end"

There is a half page on Top Gear in this weeks TV times, doesn't give any dates, but puts the RX8 up against the Z4 for best sports car. Unforgiveably though they have a small picture of the pre-production RX8 which has the shorter less agressive nose and narrow lights.

Doesn't look like its going to appear on next Sundays show either. TiVo lists the programme description as: "Motoring magazube featuring news on the latest cars, presented by Jeremy Clarkson, Richard Hammond and James May. A special edition from the Isle of Man showing what the team got up to during their summer holidays."

Motoring magazine featuring news on the latest cars, presented by Jeremy Clarkson, Richard Hammond and James May. A special edition from the Isle of Man showing what the team got up to during their summer holidays. Jeremy drives the quickest BMW M3 that money can buy and puts the Mazda RX8 through its paces. The star in a reasonably priced car is Stephen Fry.

Go to the BBC website and look up program schedules. Click
on Top Gear and it tells you what cars are being tested this
Sunday.
A stupid question, but as I am new to this can someone tell me
how I would change my name from fairfieldhouse (not my real name believe it or not). I have been in to edit but can't see how to do it.

I dont think you can change the member name - JimBobJoe or BlueAdept will be able to confirm this. As you've only done 2 posts though, perhaps creating a new logon is easier?

Clarkson is reviewing the RX8 on Top Gear this Sunday
2/11/03
I have a bad feeling in my blood that all reviews so far have gone too well. I can just hear Jeremy..."This car has less torque (talk)than a than a 'Halloween movie theatre"
