Car: VW Passat Rep Power: 9 ![]() | Well that was alright, not as good as the US special and not as good as last episode but did had a few good moments. The filming was great and the conclusion was nice but apart from that, they cross a hugh open space, so not much happens. So all in all, nice episode but by far not the best. |

| Well that was amazing, I can't believe it all 3 cars made it. A very good ep quite disappointed none of them got killed to death by a lion or hippo. Was much better than the American Show. Who would have thought a Hitler-mobile could make it across Africa without breaking down.

Rep Power: 0 ![]() | Absolutely superb episode, in my opinion, in the great tradition of the American Special, Polar Special and Amphibious cars in terms of classic cocking about! |

| Squirrel Mincer | haha i can't believe they all made it, i really want an old opel now too, but i don't want to drown it in a river. love Jezza's anti-lion protection too. and i guess the lesson there is we should all buy beetles... great show though, really brilliant. they never fail in coming up with daft/impossible ideas do they ![]() |

| I enjoyed that a lot more than the American special, it just felt a lot more real, and it was just documenting a massive road trip really. There wasn't really anything that seemed overly contrived, which was a pleasant surprise! That's another place to add to the "I really want to visit and take photos" list. | |

Rep Power: 0 ![]() | That was an amazing episode. The camaraderie and spirit was there. I loved Richard falling in love with his car. The modifications on the cars were excellent. And the awe inspiring scenery was brilliantly shot. Mind you lads, I don't think any of you will be ever able to take over Attenborough's job! |

Car: Honda VF750C (yep, it's a motorbike) Rep Power: 0 ![]() | I love Oliver - when I was a child Opel Kadetts were everywhere! Probably just because the man who lived downstairs ran an Opel garage across the street ![]() On another note: Jeremy should be shot for constantly mispronouncing Lancia - honestly, what's the point in having an Italian car if you cannot even say its name properly. That may be the reason why it constantly packed up: it was offended and you should not insult hot-blooded Italians...
