Top Gear Thread

[Peter Parka]

I couldn't help noticing how popular this program is amongst both Brits and Americans regardless of whether you're actually that interested in cars or not so thought a thread would be only right for this awesome program. Here's one of my favorite moments to start it off!:24:

YouTube - top gear. bbc, winding up americans.

Have you seen the one where they launch a car on a rocket? HOLY SHIT!!!

 

[BaggedSplash]

Peter...i remember watching that. that was HILLARIOUS!!

Donnie....saw that one too!! i was hoping that was gonna work. thats one of my fave episodes so far

 

[porphyria]

That was hilarious

Another good'uns gotta be when they tried to make the amphibious vehicles at Rudyard Lake

 

[juggler]

The only problem with that challenge was how they decided to get to the lake. Seeing as they were driving through Stoke and the neighbouring districts (where I live) their choice of route left a great deal to be desired!! Still, it was very funny.:24::24::24:

 

[Peter Parka]

They were good but the ones when they actually tried to get them across to France across the channel were even funnier!:24:

Woohoo top gear! It's hard to get over here, it's on BBC Canada about a week late on channel 237 or something. But I love it!

So many good episodes...the American vacation, the African episode, anything with an explosion, any time they make fun of James and his "sensitive hair", etc etc.

The last episode was great too, with the M3 and RS4 -- my 2 favorite cars!

I wish we got more British TV over here, they put so much effort into it.

The aqua car to France was a classic!

[juggler]

Sorry Deb, but that wasn't on Top Gear!!

 

[debbie t]

ohhh

but its on now

 

[Tattva]

i think the 8th episode of the series was my favorite, with the Hamster making an arse of himself in the Renault F1 and Hamilton on the test track

the challenge where they all brought Porsches tho i think was my favorite, watching Clarkson struggle is always good for a laugh

 

[debbie t]

who is the stig????????????????and can i have his babies?

 

[juggler]

1) We're not allowed to tell you. If we did, then we'd have to kill you!!!!!!!!
2) I think you'll have to join a very long line!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
