Brilliant episode!!!

The Zonda actually has better fuel economy than the GT?

Captain Morgan · November 28th, 2005, 06:55 AM

Carpark sequence was too funny, as was Jeremy's drive-by in the Focus.

But damn, you see how fast James drove the 430?

"Here comes Captain Slow!"

zeoniks · November 28th, 2005, 06:57 AM

That was the most touching Top Gear episode I have ever watched. I want to cry... I want a supercar....

I need a hug.

SYNiC · November 28th, 2005, 07:17 AM

Can't wait to watch it, Damn I hate MN, miss the old private tracker days when people actually shared, snatched 2000 times, & 100 seeders

Oh and welcome back VUK. Hope you enjoyed your holiday, glad I didn't have to D/L another 700mb rip

(though my source that has it would be quicker than VUKs on MN)

Hey all you hep cats, I've taken the liberty of upping the 'sode to a.b.multimedia. IF you have any inkling as to what I'm on about go grab it now! You can get the NZB HERE if you just can't be arsed to download all those headers. Enjoy 8)

It was an alright episode... had some really funny bits like the car park and Jeremy doing the drive-by in the Focus.

I don't get the supercar match up though... to me the F430 is an exotic, not a supercar. If they wanted to use the Ferrari, they should've put it up against the DB9 or something.

By the way, what the fuck is with Jeremy's GT's rear lights? Why do they keep flickering?

awdrifter · November 28th, 2005, 08:59 AM

Pretty good episode. I guess there's not many new car out this season. But the supercar segment is still cool. Out of the 3 cars, I love the Zonda, if I ever buy a supercar, it'd be the Zonda F. And yes, the car Hammon drove is the Zonda S, but the car in the studio is the F. The F has one more pair of headlights.

Shawn · November 28th, 2005, 09:02 AM

I love the Zonda too... but that colour is just so fucking bad. That and the Focus together gave me a great headache.

Glad I wasn't the only one who saw this and was wondering this... Forgot about it in the couple of hours I was away between TV and computer. But yeah, his rear lights did flicker strangely when on - why?

Loved it though when Clarkson said something along the lines of "If you run someone over, he can never say he didn't see you coming..."

Shawn · November 28th, 2005, 09:08 AM

Well that's why you cut out any social life you might have... you watch stuff on the TV (or in this rare case on the PC) and then go right to your computer to discuss.

I agree, Clarkson wasn't being that nice during the interview either. Ladyman didn't have to go on the show if he didn't want, people should've been grateful.

Overall I think it was a very average episode. The best bit was when they were leaving the carpark, which doesn't say much for the rest of the episode. We barely got to hear the exhaust notes of the supercars, Zondas sound great when you get the revs up.

Oh yeah, and what was with Hammond during the cool wall? He was acting like a 6 year old... Very annoying.

Hehe... On Sunday nights, l have no social life!

After Top Gear I watched a couple of Egypt programs then Enter the Dragon, all of which were on TV last night... (for those that don't know, Enter the Dragon = Very cool Bruce Lee film)

LusDekkar · November 28th, 2005, 09:19 AM

Funniest bit was when they couldn't get out of the car park. Wonder how long it actually took for them to get out?? But that part had me in tears.

TheCleaner · November 28th, 2005, 09:35 AM

I enjoyed it, then again, I enjoy most top gear episodes

I love the f430, but I kind of wish james wasnt driving the spyder, I much prefer the coupe, funny that they brought it up when the f430 was reviewed about people driving it with the top down. Still, I think it was a great segment, and the carpark bit was priceless

the focus ASBO, the burberry lens, haha

clarkson being clarkson, taking the piss (haha, censored in TG)

The whole 'teeth whitening' thing will get old fast, it was funny at first but it began to go a bit 'overkill'

Maybe cuz I'm younger, but I like the color. Like Hammon said, a supercar should be wild and make you feel like a kid, the orange does exactly that.

Shawn · November 28th, 2005, 10:03 AM

I'm not that old, I'm only 20 years old. I'm all for outrageous colours, but that was just a bit much.

The rear lights use LEDs and they flicker. However human eye can't catch this flicker, but a TV camera can. Same thing happens when a computer monitor is filmed, the picture will show horizontal stripes running on the monitor screen.

TheCleaner · November 28th, 2005, 10:31 AM

I agree, I prefer the silver zonda in the studio to the orange one, the zonda is so wild anyway, it doesnt need to 'be as orange as an air hostess' to make a statement, then again, I prefer subtle styling, like say of the F430 to the zonda.
