| CHEERING AND APPLAUSE |
00:00:18.360 - 00:00:20.360 |
| Hello and welcome to Top Gear.
Now... |
00:00:23.080 - 00:00:26.720 |
| ..I think you'd be pretty impressed
if I told you we drove a car |
00:00:26.720 - 00:00:31.360 |
| to the bottom of the sea and then
drove it out again, right? |
00:00:31.360 - 00:00:35.000 |
| Right? Well, this week... |
00:00:35.000 - 00:00:37.480 |
| ..we do half of that. |
00:00:37.480 - 00:00:39.040 |
| But first, we need to talk about
the British economy. |
00:00:39.040 - 00:00:41.600 |
| Now, the Government has a plan
to speed up business, |
00:00:41.600 - 00:00:44.040 |
| and it's something called HS2,
a high-speed train line between |
00:00:44.040 - 00:00:47.800 |
| London and the North, and they say
it's going to cost £56 billion. |
00:00:47.800 - 00:00:52.000 |
| But Chris Harris thinks he's got
a better business plan. |
00:00:52.000 - 00:00:55.400 |
| Ladies and gentlemen, |
00:00:58.760 - 00:00:59.960 |
| the future of British business
could just be the BMW M5. |
00:00:59.960 - 00:01:05.800 |
| At £90,000, it sounds expensive, |
00:01:05.800 - 00:01:09.040 |
| but for the price of HS2, |
00:01:09.040 - 00:01:11.120 |
| you could buy one of these
with petrol money to spare |
00:01:11.120 - 00:01:15.160 |
| for the entire population
of Manchester. |
00:01:15.160 - 00:01:18.400 |
| That'll speed up business
between London and the North. |
00:01:20.920 - 00:01:24.480 |
| Because this is an M5
with a 4.4 litre twin turbo V8 |
00:01:25.920 - 00:01:30.400 |
| with just about 600hp. |
00:01:30.400 - 00:01:33.480 |
| And that means it's really
very fast... |
00:01:33.480 - 00:01:36.320 |
