Great, another mash up of random fast cars. images/smilies/rolleyes.gif

I hate to be critical, but none of his annual solo videos is anywhere near as good as Top Gear. Sure Hammond and May are missing, but I never got how his videos felt so different than Top Gear which I always thought Clarkson had the most influence on.

But as always, I will be watching for it here. images/smilies/biggrin.gif

Anyone else automatically go "'Cause this Is Thriller--Diller night!" when they read the title?
Heh.

Even if his solo stuff isn't on Top Gear levels, it's still excellent entertainment.

Very much looking forward to seeing it images/smilies/smile.gif

Though you often see cars from his annual DVDs show up in later episode of TopGear.

Synopsis now available:

Welcome to my all new DVD Thriller, which, as the name suggests, is all about thrills at the wheel. Aston Martin’s gentleman thug, the DBS, takes on its rivals from Italy. The lightweight Lamborghini Superleggera battles it out on the track with Ferrari’s 430 Scuderia and my test of the best takes me to the breathtaking roads of the Swiss Alps, the no limits German autobahn – and, er, Norfolk.

I swap racing overalls for camouflage uniform to join the Marines at the controls of an all-terrain Viking before using its machine gun to shoot a Lexus…in the face. The 200 mph Porsche 911 turbo struts its stuff in its natural habitat – the autobahn. And I get a lungful of turbocharged fresh air from the 240 mph Pagani Zonda Roadster F. Then there’s the rocket science – Clarkson-style – as I fit a Porsche 944 with rocket launchers (they only look like drainpipes wrapped in silver foil). I also blast fireworks at a speed camera and have a bit of an accident with a double-decker bus. I drop a 7-tonne diesel engine on to a Highways Agency traffic-womble car – doing my bit to tidy the roads…while creating the world’s fastest diesel. Plus I’m joined by tame racing driver The Stig who gets a big surprise – as do you when you see what he likes to do with sheep. And everything else explodes.

Enjoy…..
