It's an emotional start for the series as Quentin falls in love with the automotive icon that sums up the feel-good 60s American Dream. We rub shoulders with pretty people and even prettier cars at London Fashion Week and compare a million-pound classic Mercedes against its swoopy modern counterpart in the classic desirability stakes. You’ll be surprised which one raises the eyebrows of the highbrows. There's a five grand classic that divides opinion like brussel sprouts, and we follow Chris Routledge, classic car expert and auctioneer, as he discovers a finny 60s land-yacht that’s been forgotten in a hedge for thirty years. And if that’s not enough, Jodie goes all misty-eyed when she takes the wheel of a six million pound late-50s Italian V12. Which one? Think James Coburn, Bridget Bardot, Bob Hope and Ralph Lauren…

If you fancy a hand -built, high-tab 70s four-seat convertible that’s still criminally undervalued, stay tuned and see why Quentin bought a very special classic that even Lady Ga Ga agrees is pure glam-rock. And it’s the model that saved a very famous car company from going under. We also tell you how to drive classics and supercars without having friends at Fort Knox – and which one gets the warm approval of passers by and other drivers. Being waved out of a busy side turning is a breeze in this one. Plus there’s another budget classic, reviewed by Mastermind-winner and arch old car fancier Alex Riley, plus Chris ‘Barn-find’ Routledge uncovers a 1920s French gem that hasn’t seen daylight for decades. You can watch Jodie put her perfectly manicured toe down on the road-race circuit that kicked off the podium champagne phenomenon. Watch her shout out loud with unalloyed joy.
