Man that was funny

James' siren had me in tears of laughter!

They might have outdone the amphibious cars skit this time.

Too true. The siren was a scream and the whole programme was hillarious.

I think this program has raised the goalposts, even had a half sensible feature regarding the BMW M3

Great program and one of the very few 'Must Watch' things that I bother with.

Bugger!!!! Missed it

Nat and I thought that too - what a funny, funny episode - it will be a long time before they better that one

 

[BTB 500]

The little bit with the Prius & BMW M3 (fuel economy) was interesting, too.

Who needs Dave, eh?

 

[SEM]

haha funny ... good finish to the weekend.!

 

[Simon]

Do you think they really went to the bother of draining those supercars tanks then filling with 1 gallon of petrol, or just driving until empty and maybe destroying the cat's then putting a gallon in?

 

[BTB 500]

or just driving until empty and maybe destroying the cat's

Yup I had the same thought. But ... the manufacturers must be aware by now that they abuse exotic cars as a matter of course (clutches, gearboxes, brakes, tyres down to the canvas etc.). So maybe they were prepared to replace the cats afterwards, if necessary. Or maybe it was faked.

Or maybe it was faked.

Quick - call the Daily Mail!

I would be very surprised if they let them run out of fuel.

140mph and very limited brakeing ability or power steering might not be funny but who cares about reality, that is not what Top Gear is about??

NEVER..... let the truth spaoil a good laugh.

Watched it on bbc iplayer after a disappointing Motogp.. poor old JT.

Top Gear might as well have been a repeat, same format, same scripted gags, same slightly staged bonhomie.. made me laugh a couple of times though.. and what's with the hair stylist?

Yep. I rewound it a few times just to be sure.
