TG back in Iceland [SPOILER]

VariEze · February 24th, 2006, 8:48 AM

According to the morning paper here in Iceland, Top gear vill be back next summer for more filming. Has anyone heard anything about this

SL65 · February 24th, 2006, 8:55 AM

Nah I haven't heard anything regarding this.

The last time they were in Iceland was when they did that crappy review of the 350Z/Crossfire/Tittie convertibles.

Could you scan the article or something for us?? If you do, remember to add "SPOILER" in the title of this thread by editing your first post...

This should be interesting. its no surprise they would go back there : there's no speed limit images/smilies/tongue.gif

jensked · February 24th, 2006, 9:03 AM

Buba · February 24th, 2006, 10:41 AM

Vs. Gallardo SE (or the 2007 upgraded model) vs. some other car I currently can't think of...?

Those of us who have watched all episodes of TG would agree it was one of those weaker episodes. Check the specific episode discussion for this episode...quite negative. Even JC surprised us all by admitting that it wasn't that good the in next episode.

One of those cases of "not so great by TG standings but still a TG so still better than most shows on TV" definitions of "crappy" images/smilies/smile.gif

dunno about in hafnarfjordur, but out east there aren't any speed cameras, and only once have i seen a policeman with a radar gun. but often the condition of the roads (and self-preservation instincts) don't let you do more than 90kph anyway images/smilies/lol.gif

anyway varieze, if you hear anything else let us know please images/smilies/thumbsup.gif

true, but there are many radar cars almost daily in the citys (and towns) and a lot of speed control on on big travel weekends, so often there is no speed detecting on other days but there are some. also the higway is often 1x1 or 1x2 and it´s in a bad condition

VariEze · April 7th, 2006, 2:43 PM

This was in the car section in the morning paper this morning

http://i44.photobucket.com/albums/f43/VariEze/topgearslandapr.jpg

It says that Richard went to "Jökulsárlón" to film a segment with a high speed engine powered kajak. It also says that Jeremy went to film in the Bermuda islands

Buba · April 7th, 2006, 2:56 PM

Good to see they got some new and exicting footage lined up... Series 7 was great, but they only checked the boxes and didn't really do something new and special...!

mautzel · April 8th, 2006, 11:20 PM

Bermuda Islands? Must include some convertibles, then. (Or they're going a little bit off topic doing some boat stuff)
