Murray gets behind the wheel of the all new Citroen Cactus this week. He's never been a huge fan of the Citroen brand, so will the Cactus change his mind? He takes it for a spin across the Pentlands and over to Edinburgh to find out. Linda is in Nottinghamshire test driving the world's smallest production car - the Peel P50. It's so small it makes a Smart car look big! A Ford Focus ST is Petrolhead Mairi Ross' car of choice.
