    The Princess Diana joke is usually reference to her fatal crash, but in this context I believe it was referring to her vocal advocacy and campaigns against landmines.

    The Nurburgring is a legendary racetrack in Germany, one of the most famous tracks in the world.
    James hates it because lots of car manufacturers test and develop sporty cars to go round the Nurburgring, in doing so, they create a car with terrible, hard suspension which ruins the ride when you're on normal roads. He instantly hates any car that sayd it was developed on the Nurburgring, since it's almost certainly going to have been ruined and be terribly uncomfortable for normal road use.

    While a lot of things are scripted and edited, there's not really much you can do when random silly things happen. I think that's why the show works. Not only is it because of the chemistry between the hosts. It also due to bizarre things happening that could never be scripted or planned.

    The Met Life bldg in NYC used to be the headquarters of Pan Am and known as the Pan Am building. The company ceased operations in 1991, due to financial problems. Perhaps the not-so-young viewers will sadly remember Pan Am Flight 103, which on 21 December 1988 was destroyed mid-air by a terrorist bomb that had been planted on board. Large parts of the aircraft came down in a residential street in the Scottish town of Lockerbie, and so the event became known as the Lockerbie bombing. All 243 passengers, 16 crew, and 11 residents of the town died. In 2003, Muammar Gaddafi (the de facto leader of Libya from 1969 to 2011) accepted responsibility for the Lockerbie bombing and paid compensation to the families of the victims.
