Jesus2 Posted April 27, 2011 Share Posted April 27, 2011 Just started watching it and it's pretty awesome. I always disliked shows that reviewed and critiqued cars but Jeremy Clarkson, Richard Hammond and James May do a pretty entertaining job of doing it and make it so much more interesting. Thoughts on the show? Favorite clips/vehicles/episodes? Discuss. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
60Seconds Posted April 27, 2011 Share Posted April 27, 2011 I liked the episode when they tried to wreck the Toyota truck. The American version isn't bad either Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jesus2 Posted April 28, 2011 Author Share Posted April 28, 2011 I watched an episode yesterday where they test drive American Cars in America. But Dodge wouldn't lend them a Challenger because they always say bad things about their cars LOL They ended up buying a Challenger. The whole episode was sarcastic because they were only allowed in America if the show was "factual" and not entertaining. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AnonyHorse Posted April 28, 2011 Share Posted April 28, 2011 I like the british series, but the american is so horribly scripted it makes them look like idiots. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jake Posted April 28, 2011 Share Posted April 28, 2011 I like both UK and US version, but UK version is by far the best IMO. Been watching this show for years and it doesn't get old. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jesus2 Posted April 28, 2011 Author Share Posted April 28, 2011 I love some of the races they do too. They did the Aerial Atom V8 against a BMW Motorcycle Also the Bugatti Veyron against a Mclaren F1 and the Bugatti Veyron against the Euro Fighter Jet Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted April 28, 2011 Share Posted April 28, 2011 How did you manage to get a ride with Hammond? I don't assume you were hitchhiking and he picked you up. i did a small bit of work for the BBC like some work experience, i had a tour of the BBC building and met the Top gear team. they were just going out for a quick practice run and offered to take me along. i quickly accepted. lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Colonel Potter M.D. Posted April 30, 2011 Share Posted April 30, 2011 I love this show I have the entire series up to date from series 8 to now including a episode from season 4. the summer series is longer than the winter series because they use more money in the summer for challenges and stuff so that is why they are short.
