[reading the issue of Autocar magazine in which the Hammerhead i-Eagle Thrust is reviewed]

Richard:
Um... it says it the ride and handling section where they deal with things like the chassis, "that to all intents and purposes the Hammerhead i-Eagle Thrust has no ride or handling as such, instead it lurches around almost uncontrollably."

[audience laughs]

Jeremy:
Oh, God Almighty. No, it gets worse. OK, they say that in the Highway Code, they say that the stopping distance from 70 miles an hour is 215 feet, but our car stopping from 30 miles an hour took 506... 549 feet.

[audience laughs]

Richard:
Well, who's really going to do that in the real world?

Jeremy:
It's ridiculous.

James:
[reading] "The styling is unlikely to win fans amongst those of us blessed with the gift of sight."

[audience laughs]

Richard:
Bastards!
