Top Gear Christmas DVD
FYI, this year's Top Gear Christmas DVD drops tomorrow (Nov 18th).

And I'm sure we're all gonna watch it because we all legally ordered the Bluray disc off of Amazon or TopGear.com

Right?

I was a little disappointed with the end, but funny. I also would of liked to seem some wheel to wheel action between the Aston and the Porsche 911.


EDIT-I was looking to see if there was any truth to the end of the special when I came across this

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Top_Gear_controversies

For some reason It really bugs me how whiny people are. Then I realized I was complaining about people complaining .....
How does one complain about complaints with out being hypocritical.....




EDIT#2

SPOILER ALERT









http://cars.aol.co.uk/2013/11/18/top...-three-months/



they did get banned from driving in France .. for three months

Man some people take TG way too serious, I was reading a few posts on finalgear which were removed of people actually going beyond ape shit on Clarkson for getting banned.

I enjoyed the special rally stage. I so want to do that one day. Open top, muddy track, lightning storm (even if half of it was fake lol)... looks like so much fun.

And I'm glad they actually had a couple of cheap cars in there was well (Fiesta v. GTI). As nice as it is to see super and hypercars, it's always enjoyable seeing them drive affordable cars.

^yup. it's their official test car.

There's also a McLaren F1 with 90K on it(green with MCL1 plate I think). It's much older than the Pagani though.

Just finished watching it pretty awesome DVD

Anyone else notice how in the Jaguar section of the video the car sounds are recycled? They played the same acceleration sound over and over for Hammond's car. For Jeremy's he said it was a V8 but they played V6 noises.

No .. due to avatar limitations I could not include them in the photo sequentially (end-to-end) therefore I had to offset the jeep slightly, but because it's a crappy american car it dropped its crank in the process.
