Top Gear
Sun 21 Nov, 8:00 pm - 9:00 pm 60mins

Jeremy Clarkson takes on Germany's Nurburgring - the longest and most terrifying race track in the world; the BMW 1 Series elbows its way into the small hatchback market and Richard Hammond and James May pay tribute to the London Routemaster bus.

Also tonight, the Morgan Aero 8 GTN, and Hollywood A-lister Christian Slater is the Star in a Reasonably Priced Car.

A very nice episode, but not as good as the previous one

The Nordschleife part was idd very good. Go Sabine Btw, how much did TG pay to be allowed with camera's on the track and to do a lap timing during a public day?

Sabine's so hot... She looks so sexy when she was driving the S-type. So agressive. :shock:

No idea really but surely to compete it would have to be one of the most powerful i can't remember which they have reviewed already

sounds like its going to be a fun episode, the rally car part is made here in Norway, and the driver is Petter Solbergs older brother Hening Solberg.....
Cool, at least they didn't let jeremy or richard loose!! ........ would have been awesome to see that being filmed..... i bet they had a few practice runs first

Indeed, the FQ400 could even smash the Murcielago at least on a short distance! I would really like to see the monster in action!

I did a search and couldnt find anything, but has anyone uploaded Jeremy Clarksons special on modern cars vs old cars. It was called Hot Metal, and he talks about, well just about everything from the last year, vs stuff from the past. I just got it after waiting 3 weeks for it to get mailed to me, and just uploaded it to my computer, and it was easily the best car video I've ever seen.

If it has already been posted, sorry, I couldnt find it. But if not, is there anyway for me to send it to Jabba to get posted?
