my fav segment is the evo8 vs merccialargo (spelling)

and when hes just fanging the evo8 ... one finger power slides ...

Jeremy Clarckson > God

and any of the segments where they have to buy cars for under 1500 squid

hahahah they always end in tears .....

Hamster buys a sensible car
Maye buys a slow vintage car
Clarckson buys something fast that breaks down every 5 metres lol

[Niva]

yeh i saw that lastnight on youtube, i think is a 735i, and xjsomething? and a toyota starion.. awsome

and the evo8 versus the lambo, i think thats the evo8 fq400 isnt it? the one that has the huge turbo lag problems?

[ben351]

yer

[DRKWRX]

lol yeh they all are good and the evo doesnt have lag problems he just stuck it in 6th at low speed hahah one of my favourites would have to be when they had to buy a car and turn it into a boat classic!!!! the aston martin racing across several countries, where they took 3 supercars to france, man every episode is awesome I love this show!!!!! and Jeremy Clarkson is my hero :lol:

[mc68]

yeh i saw that lastnight on youtube, i think is a 735i, and xjsomething? and a toyota starion.. awsome

lol its a 635csi, a jag XJ12 and a MISTUBISHI strarion :P

i think when he put the massive turbo on the strarion was the funniest moment :P

but i like the van challenege...and the car dartboard.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vVj9_8ZBK4s best celebrity drive ever

[upgarage]

i like the one where they race around on in stupid cars ( ones a couch, ones a shed, another is garden)

classic

[Niva]

so, who knows what about the stig?
apparently it was perry mcarthy or somebody, but he got fired coz he mentioned being the stig in his autobiography,

I dont have a favourite one i love them all , just finished watching them all over the last week on the pc . . .

[ELUSIV]

big fan of top gear and fifth gear, the comedy factor of top gear does it for me, probably one of the funniest moments was their caravanning trip where they accidentally run down sum poor dood's annex, then burn down their caravan and set this other dude's on fire by accident:

This is another cheap car challenge, with vans, hasn't been on SBS yet, Hammond rolls a Suzuki Carry van near the end, kinda ironic..

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OInQ-qPqqC4

Just watched all of the caravanning ones too, it's brilliant haha,

[wadragracing]

The Tank vs Range Rover is brilliant, Lotus v Apache was pretty cool too. I've only got series eight and a best of DVD so my viewing is pretty limited but hey. The challenges are always hilarious. But that's what makes the show great, it's not just "fuel economy this, safety features that". And when they do they make it look cool.
I'm downloading the Winter Olympics episode at the moment which is supposed to be pretty funny.

hahaha seen that a few months back i was in tears ...

" i rekon i can get away from stigg ... ill just give it the old skando flick .... one two CRASH "

[DRKWRX]

I dont like to say that the rolling the van was fake but I think it was, when he rolls it look at the bottom of the car you can see little plates like there was a roll cage welded in or somthing lol was still funny though.

[mc68]

hmm perhaps it was, but those little vans are seriously dangerous :P

[Jazza]

[Dim]

[Lonewolf]

TGMV racing.

yes tarago's etc in a race... always amusing.

also the "talon" armoured vehicle road test haha

[MrMayhem]

Its the personalities of the characters that make top gear the best, and the budget, ..... and the access to everything a kid could want, especially when you want to play car darts!

[S_E]

yeh exactly, it could be a show about cooking or some **** and if those guys were on it I'd watch it.

another challenge one...Old Italian Sportscars for the price of a second hand Mondeo..

[Twe12ve]

[ben351]
