Simon Cowell took JC apart He's a very good driver though!

[poacher]

just managed to calm myself down with laughter top gear at their best
stig in general pure comedy gold in london
hammond and little oliver opel coming to uk. brilliant
clarkson and cowell battle of the bigheads and may in the mercm fantastic
Let the awards keep coming

[narin]

HOLY MOLEY DID YOU SEE THAT!?!? absolutely epic!

[iongerm]

Sometimes JC's subtle sense of humor is just incredible: "What will happen to the STIG on public transport? Maybe he will be mistaken for a Brazilian electrician!".
Other than that, my respect to Richard, the man of steel- how incredible was that?
Simon Cowell is so rich he cannot remember what that new Audi was called, that he instructed his PA to purchase for him. He's such an annoying little man!
I was actually feeling a bit up tight when JC was driving the T1- as all the wind noise and the bad mic quality combined with JC's the high pitched voice of excitement somehow reminded me a bit of the last seconds before Hammond crashed. The fire crews and ambulance army was hilarious though

[Dingingaround]

I loved this episode. It was just old fasshioned great top gear! Had a blast watching it.

[spydrz]

It'd be fun to see Clarkson on the docks, waiting on Oliver...I'd guess he'd bring one of his automatic rifles.

[Xeon SX]

is there anything faster than T1 and street legal? even if it didnt get on the board... compare that to Ultima GTR now, 2sec quicker and much better looking

[Frederic]

Oliver wants a British passport
Or an MOT
Priceless

Not in this country mate. Cyclists have to obey traffic lights here.

Excellent episode - Hammond's shouting and swearing at the buses was sheer class I had a feeling he would win it - though I was suprised at the Stig - that's not a bad journey by public transport.

And as for the Aston............wow.

But Simon Cowell - who needs him. Get someone good on to knock him off the top, guys

[Xeon SX]

Stig had a pleasant ride, I wish my journeys to uni were this quiet (

[ahpadt]

I quite liked it. Best bit was the London race.... Jeremy got the most style points for sure

[Buba]

Pretty nice one...
Jezza traveling in style as always... May being the slowest... Hammond cursing like a Pirate...
We've got a damn good season, I reckon!!!

Over here Police seem to think likewise: You just have to convince them they're wrong

Loved this episode. I was sure the car would be last, and though the boat would win. I prefere the bike, is so much faster in trafic, it can easily reach 20 mph.

[Amanaman]

I felt that this episode had a slightly different tone to previous episodes - good material but not the earth shattering delight that episode 3 was. The star in a reasonably priced car was a triumph however, a duel of egos The race was also enjoyable, but didn't really retain the epicness that previous races of the same nature conveyed, but having said that it was deliberately more low key by being based squarely in London. The Stig scenes were hilarious, but I would have expected more public reactions.

[noFlooder]

I'm stunned, what a fantastic episode.

[Pr0_E]

Another brilliant episode! 8)

A nice reply to the Ultima who "bashed" the TG track record, there is a faster "street legal" car (read: "track car") than the GTR. But too bad you can't really use it anywhere else. You could use an Enzo in real life, but not that.

Races against the rollerbade man and through London were great also. Even Simon Cowell segment was fun to watch.

[HotCooler]

Great episode. Caparo T1 is really Junk - It broke 3 times while 1 filming day IMO. + You cant use it on city rods.. waste of money.. IMO.
