Episode 3 of 7

Motoring news and views. Clarkson, Hammond and May confront the credit crunch as they search for three sensibly priced small cars that will not make their owners miserable.

Jeremy Clarkson, Richard Hammond and James May confront the credit crunch head-on as they attempt to find three sensibly priced small cars that won't make their owners miserable - a process that involves haranguing bankers, harnessing large dogs and almost getting arrested.

James meets American stunt-driving legend Ken Block, Jeremy tests the mildly insane Mercedes SL Black on the track, and Michael McIntyre is the Star in a Reasonably Priced Car.
