For the first event the presenters were told that they would compete in a drag race using only a working man's car. The Top Gear Australia team decides to use a HSV Maloo, whereas the Top Gear UK team decides to use a Ford Transit. The Transit wins however, as it was fitted with a twin-turbo Jaguar XJ220 engine. The Aussies were, obviously, not too happy about this, and neither was the driver of the van, Richard, who got the shock of his life when the Transit accelerated.
