Car absolutely obliterated the public transportation network which included the Shinkansen (ignoring the "I turned the satnav off accidentally and lost an hour" bit). Although hard to determine just how much Clarkson was breaking the speed limits.. But it shows that direct point to point travel can make up for slower average speed.
