Bit where the spark plug "fell out" of the MX5 was a particular low point for me.
if the thread was fucked or spark plug wasnt done up well it could have indeed "fell out"

BOOM.
The only reason I still watch is that I've still got a tiny hope that it's going to rise up and be good again. That New York special was going the right way then they've dipped again with that shecht on the 26th.
I thought the thread was fucked on the MX5 as well, would make sense.

If the thread was crossed, how could it run right beforehand then be repaired? I don't buy it.

He could have bought it with a fucked thread, I'm assuming they'd do at least a simple service before heading out into the middle East. The thread would have been more damaged when they removed the old plug and more damaged when they re-fitted the new plug to the point that it was probably just on the very edge waiting to come out. The constant huge pressure of the combustion chamber would have been more than enough to force it out after a while.
I'm guessing that then when Clarkson says 'a wee Punjabi cunt stayed up all night with it' or something that they had replaced the head.

Not sure the spark plug bit was significant enough or funny enough to be fake.

I thought both episodes where a good watch with the NYC one the best.

Exactly. The roadworks bit lasted all of a few seconds.
