    yes, I love it, love all the presenters not just Hammond! My favourite was the Brian Johnson...Brian who? episode (AC/DC) if you can get to see the full length unedited version do so!

    They get away with so much because its the beebs best show by far and there is no way the beeb would pull the plug on any of the presenters without losing mega money

    I love Top Gear too! My 15 year old son got me into watching it. I think right now we have around 48 episodes saved on the DVR!
    He thinks he's gonna get a Bugatti for his 16th birthday....and he is....a model of one :laugh:

    Did you see the video of the idiot who drove a Bugatti into a lake?
    Bugatti...$1 million
    Cell phone...$100
    Drive the car into the lake because you dropped the phone...priceless :embarassed:

    I don't even really care about cars and I love that show. Netflix has seasons 2-12 and parts of seasons 13 and 14 on instant watch. I think my favorite one ever was when the drove motorcycles through Vietnam.

    best show around, I loved the episode last series I think it was when they made cars into caravans, clarksons was about 15ft tall and blew over, mays had a toilet on the roof.

    They ended up camping on a site ive been to in Cornwall a few times :)

    Oh if you like Clarksons view on things, check out his books he has a fair few, ive got all of them and there bloody funny, he really really hates the french in them :P lol

    i love it, although obviously clarkson is a t*** , its a guilty pleasure.

    My favourite was the driving the cars through the deep south of america with the slogans on the side. Genius

    i went to the live top gear show a week after this episode forst aired in the uk and they had it there in the show and clarkson did a survey of who had watched the episode in the audience and pulled someone out that had seen it to drive it, and promptly made them drive into a narrow "parking space" made of hay bales that was too narrow for him to open the doors and of course because he hadn't watched the show he didn't realise there was no reverse and had to sit on stage for about half an hour trapped in this tiny little car, with regular you should have watched the show comments thrown at him, poor bloke.

    OMG, that was one of the funniest things ever! I loved the Vietnam one too - that statue! Heheh! Also, when they turned the cars into boats and tried to get across the channel! In fact, probably most of them! I'm not remotely interested in cars either!

    Seconding the love of Clarkson's books - I'm not sure whether I should be disturbed or not, that he puts into print what I am often thinking!
