Top Gear - Season 15 - Episode 8

1986-05-27? min⭐ 7.858/10

Peter Burgess drives one of the newest entrants in the hot hatch race, the Renault 5 turbo, and compares it with the Peugeot 205 GTI. Why don't they teach them something useful at school? William Woollard discovers that you can do motor mechanics and road traffic studies at CSE; and in 1988 there will be a new exam - but could he pass? All cars will soon have rear seat belts as standard; but as yet there is no compulsion to wear them. Chris Goffey looks at Volvo's dummy back seat drivers, and the tortures they endure for research.
