Buckle up for a journey into the fascinating secret world of the car factory in this brand new three part series. James May goes behind the scenes to reveal the science, engineering and people that keep us all on the road, with access all areas to the MINI plant in Oxford where a car is built every 68 seconds. Building Cars will also step outside the factory to explore the evolution of global mass production, bust the myth that British manufacturing is dead and see how design becomes reality. Over three episodes James and the team discover exactly how a car is born. Real cars, real people and real time - a real television event. In the first episode, James makes friends with an army of diligent robots and busts the myth that British manufacturing is dead. Kate heads to Norway to discover why the electric car is king of the Norwegian road and Ant explores the history and heritage of one of the most iconic cars ever built. With access all areas live on the factory floor, the team will see exactly how a car is born - a car that tomorrow will be driven off the line ready for life on the open road.
