I haven’t seen the channel one yet, do they use the amphibious cars? its such a perfect show, great amount of cars, comedy and interesting stuff. ---

[/quote] If you saw the first one with the amphibious cars when they had to cross the canal its kinda of like that. They had them improve on there idea’s and there task is to cross the English Chanel. As you probably would guess hilarity ensues. ---
