Raheel · June 20th, 2005, 2:54 PM

Guess what I just got an invitation to the Top Gear recording of 22nd June images/smilies/biggrin.gif

.

Too bad I can't go coz I am in Spain and it is impossible to organise a ticket right away...

Here's the e-mail I received :

That looks like spam, you sure this is real?

Shadowness · June 20th, 2005, 3:00 PM

you bastard lol!! Ive applied loads of times, but no luck!
I rang up the ticket line and asked what the odds of actually getting tickets were! They said:

Quote:

Not a lot!

They said they get 20,000 requests PER WEEK, and can only choose 300! So odds of getting picked is 1.5%. God i really want to go!

Applause Store are the official people for tickets. And if you get a chance like this, take it, becasue the waiting list is very, very, very, very long now.

Raheel · June 20th, 2005, 3:01 PM

I don't think it is spam. I had registered with applausestore.com and requested the tickets. I was hoping they would invite me sometime after september when I would be in UK... Damn unlicky am I !!!

Shadowness · June 20th, 2005, 3:02 PM

no that does look genuine, coz its got the same layout and everything else of the letters when i applied

andyhui01 · June 20th, 2005, 3:04 PM

awww... maybe bbc.co.uk/topgear can help raheel by changing his thing so he can go in autumn or something.... but as bbc said, raheel this is a once in a lifetime chance, you should take it images/smilies/thumbsup.gif

Raheel · June 20th, 2005, 3:09 PM

Damn Hell... I have an exam on the 24th of Jun, why didn't I get this letter in sept ? Is there anyway of changing the dates or something?

Webmonkey · June 20th, 2005, 3:23 PM

E-mail or call Applause Store and ask, I'm not sure what the policy is on it.

Jostyrostelli · June 20th, 2005, 3:31 PM

If this is real, GO TO THE UK!! This is a once in a lifetime chance dude. Meet the hosts and tell them about FinalGear, dump loads of FinalGear ads in their cars (also in Jeremys Focus TDCI images/smilies/lol.gif

)

Overheat · June 20th, 2005, 4:07 PM

Well, if you can't go, surely the decent thing to do would be to offer your tickets to someone who can make it...

Yep, and I'm sure you would be a good candidate. images/smilies/wink.gif

Seriously, raheel, give them to someone who can be there...

moo · June 20th, 2005, 10:02 PM

Hello there

It is a genuine email, I've been to filming a couple of times and they do sometimes canvas people if they have spare tickets and need to get spaces filled quickly.

Jostyrostelli · June 20th, 2005, 10:04 PM

^Are you a girl? (No offence)

All girls here adore James May. You wouldn't fall out of place here images/smilies/wink.gif

moo · June 20th, 2005, 10:08 PM

Jostyrostelli · June 20th, 2005, 10:15 PM
