One of the very best kinds of car in the world is an estate. Call it what you will: station wagon, dad chariot, weekender, sportwagon or shooting brake, the fact of the matter is the second a manufacturer adds a big open area behind the rear seats and seals the deal with a hatch, it's a winner. In typical Top Gear fashion though, we like them fast and reasonably priced. That's why we have lined up the Scoda Octavia VRS next to the Cupra Leon Estate 2.0 TSI VZ2 for a lap around the Top Gear test track in the hands of The Stig. The Skoda is about 100kgs lighter, but the Cupra boasts an extra 63bhp. How close will Becky Evan's predictions be?

A V8 pick-up truck is the embodiment of the USA on wheels. Huge, powerful, and not intimidated by anything. Ford’s Raptor and the Dodge Ram TRX take the truck into new realms of power, performance and off-road ability… but that’s never enough for some people. People like Texan John Hennessey, who’s used the Ram TRX as the starting point for what they call the Mammoth 1000: the most powerful road-legal truck in the world. With 1,012 supercharged horsepower on tap, Baja-spec suspension and bumpers that could knock over buildings, it’s surely the most versatile, apocalypse-proof car on Earth. But just because it works in Texas, is it as useful in the wilds of England? Top Gear magazine’s Ollie Kew has been finding out – after he’s saved up for a tank of fuel… Chapters:

What’s the perfect two-car garage? Writer and adventurer Emme Hall would argue a second-gen Mazdaspeed Miata and a matching Miata on big 27-inch knobbly tyres for off-roading. Emme takes Rob on a trip through Yucca Valley’s backroads in the car she affectionately calls “Buddy", fitted with a shorter rear-differential, big skid plate, and just enough suspension travel to get into the good kind of trouble. Is this the most fun you can have in a Japanese budget-friendly sports car? Subscribe to Top Gear for more videos: http://bit.ly/SubscribeToTopGear MORE ABOUT TOP GEAR:fl›

Vintage sports car specialist James MacMath has a particular passion for Marcos Engineering, a low-volume British car manufacturer founded in the late 50s. They started out building race cars for 750 Motor Club events, claiming victories in the capable hands of Jackie Stewart, Derek Bell, and Jackie Oliver to name a few. The car you see here is a Mantula, one of only 170 coupés made. In this instalment of Handcrafted, James builds a wooden dashboard frame for this rare classic.

This is new. Not as in new-improved, but new as in new. The first MP4-12C was 25,000 McLarens ago, and every model since has basically been new-improved, or new-cut-price. The all-new McLaren Artura chucks away all familiar hardware we’ve come to know from McLaren and starts again. It's a plug-in hybrid for one. And, yes, its 671bhp falls some way short of McLaren's original hybrid, the 903bhp P1, though its £182,500 sticker is a whole lot less. But is it enough to take the fight to the similarly turbocharged six-cylinder Ferrari 296? Top Gear Magazine’s Ollie Marriage went to a very hot Spain to find out. Chapters
