The Top Gear MEGATHREAD!!!!

The series has long gone into what I like to describe as "the adevntures of the Top Gear Boys", where maybe some exotic cars will be raced by the Stig on the test track.
Wouldn't suprise me to find out that the BBC have been put under pressure by some "green organisation" to force Top Gear to make an end to what they do best: road tests. I bet the continuous irritating complaining about Jeremy encouraging driving fast, his love for petrol guzzling vehicles, being un-ecofriendly etc. has finally got to the BBC and ultimately the Top Gear team.
So, now we are treated to funny sitcom adventures and an occasional race on the track. Maybe James gets to road test some new Citroen, or they can talk about the 5-star safety boredom of a new Renault....
But, even under these new conditions I find Top Gear still to be my favourite show on TV.
Why don't they move from Surrey to the Isle of Man?
Banging! Does this mean they've got the cars from the first car-boat task....other than Jeremy's Toybota, coz it says Nissin in the article?
That's just a ridiculous and stupid waste of TV license payers money by the BBC. Why the f**k would they go to all that expense to get to France?
Think this is new as I haven't seen it before
BBC said:
Interesting that it is Jeremy and James together rather than the usual challenge format.
OMG What a show that was !

Wow, that cant be true, did they really drive to the North Pole with Toyota HiLux's? If they did and this is genuine then mark me up for impressed!
Was funny when Clarkson got that nut stuck to his lips 
Brilliant show, and I now wan a Hilux. Those things are solid, puts Land Rover to shame

I'd like to see them pit a Hilux against a Jeep Wrangler since there's a 90% chance the Hilux uses Jeep 4x4 bits.Brilliant show, and I now wan a Hilux. Those things are solid, puts Land Rover to shame

And cue ErikCLDR...
meh, even if that were true I'd still choose the toyota every time. they're resilience is tough to beat.
Where'd you get that from?
I was thinking that.
More likely the Jeep uses Toyota parts...
Jeeps are not necessarily good (at 4x4) for their parts themselves but more for their lightweight body and small wheelbase.
I'd like to see them not freeze to death in a wrangler out there. They are a bit breezy, hard top or not.
