		</div><p>Matt LeBlanc thanked viewers for tuning in as he took his last ever spin on Top Gear.</p>
<p>The former Friends star announced last year that he was stepping down from the BBC Two motoring programme and his final instalment aired on Sunday.</p>
<p>As the episode – and the current series – came to an end, he said: “Thank you all so much for watching.</p>
<p>“We’ve had a lot of fun making this series. Sometimes too much fun.”</p>
<p>“Good night,” he added.</p>
<p>The show then aired a few minutes of outtakes from the series, which saw LeBlanc fluffing lines and joking around in between takes.</p>
<p>The US actor joined Top Gear in 2016, originally hosting alongside Chris Evans, who later quit amid criticism over his hosting style.</p>
<p>LeBlanc was a hit, with many viewers crediting him for giving the show a boost at a time when some feared it didn’t have many miles left in the tank.</p>
<p>However, he announced last year that he was leaving because of the demands of the role and how much it kept him away from his family and friends.</p>
<p>LeBlanc’s last episode saw him chatting to his Episodes co-star Stephen Mangan, who tried his luck on the Top Gear racetrack.</p>
<p>The pair enjoyed some light-hearted banter, with Mangan joking about wanting to post a better lap time than LeBlanc.</p>
<p>At one point, Mangan teased: “He (LeBlanc) wasn’t that big in Friends. Chandler was my favourite.”</p>
<p>The instalment also saw LeBlanc try out the Aston Martin V8 Vantage, while Rory Reid tested the Rolls-Royce Phantom and Chris Harris explained why a Ford Fiesta was better than a Lamborghini.</p>
<p>Paddy McGuinness and Andrew “Freddie” Flintoff will take the wheel when Top Gear returns this summer for its 27th series.</p>
<p>McGuinness and Flintoff will join motoring journalist and racing driver Harris in the main presenting line-up.</p>
