Cant wait.

That's BBC2. Unfortunately it clashes with feckin Casualty so I'll have to wait for a repeat :mad:

Clarkson is in a Range Rover Classic, the others are in a Suzuki and a Jeep (Jezza and the Hamster are both LR fans!)

A friend of mine rode it 3-4 years ago and still talks about it. Google it - some of the stories are scary.

Why would he stop the car on top of a huge hill & then jump out knowing fine well the thing was going to roll off?:rolleyes:

True. Also it probably wasnt in the script for the cruiser to finish at the end.

A brilliant episode of Topgear all the same. Definitely be watching that again.

I'm so pee'd off I couldn't see it, all the LR forums are raving about it although there are apparantly cries of "fix" from some Jap based groups Of course it's set up for max viewing pleasure (and revenue) but the right vehicle won!

Debated getting multiroom and sky+ for xmas but couldn't justify the cost, would have done if i'd known about the clash :mad: All I got was "Top Gear is repeated all the time, Casualty isn't" Went and sulked in the study and spent my Amazon vouchers instead :rolleyes:

Jeez, just dicovered it's repeated tomorrow night but clashes with 2 episodes of Corrie!! Next chance is 2nd Jan on BBC3, if that clashes with anything, I'll be watching it on Dave in 2013 at this rate :mad:

And it was a Toyota, and Clarkson wasn't driving it

I`d say the Toyota was pushed down the hill. Its all about entertainment :cool:

The music at the end as the 2 lads head down the dune towards the sea makes my back hair stand up.:)
