Top Gear S01E03 · Grannies Do Donuts

Overview

The MOT test continues to be controversial. Is the interpretation consistent from station to station and does the motorist get a fair deal? Angela makes a comparison between the British system and the way it is done in Belgium, where they have been testing longer than anywhere else in Europe. Motor Caravans Reporter Mike Woodhead and family have their first experience of this fast-expanding do-it-yourself type of holiday.
