Top Gear at the Brits

theboyG · February 15th, 2007, 10:18 AM

Apparently , Moyles (gags) said on the radio he was in a car with Clarkson going to the Brits last night. Top Gear were acting as a Limo Taxi.

In a home made 30ft limo.

Something for Series 9 perhaps ?

Blythy · February 15th, 2007, 10:19 AM

yeah they all built their own limos - there was something about it a while back. I bet it'll be in ep 6.

HondaF1 · February 15th, 2007, 10:27 AM

if its the Brits, then maybe 05 or 06 this season??

Donington · February 15th, 2007, 10:35 AM

Sounds like fun!

Dr Zoidberg · February 15th, 2007, 10:36 AM

The trailer on the BBC before the current series showed clarkson cutting a Fiat Panda in half with an angle grinder , then driving along the road in just the front half.

It looks like this is what it was for.

otispunkmeyer · February 15th, 2007, 12:08 PM

yeah moyels was on about this on the radio this morning, the brits were last night and he was saying how everyone was turning up in Audis n the like and he rolled up with JC in a home brew limo

its gonna be an excellent watch because i find moyels to be quite funny at times. shame they didnt have comedy dave along too, because he is funny.

moyels is the same as clarkson.... if you take him too seriously, which you shouldnt, then he isnt funny at all and you'll find him rather annoying

There is one more photo doing the rounds, but I haven't shown that one as it could lead to a 'spoiler'. Let's just say that as you would imagine, things go a little wrong for one of the lads. images/smilies/wink.gif

Donington · February 15th, 2007, 02:53 PM

Where did you get these from?

stig_fever2409 · February 15th, 2007, 03:05 PM

I think there's no pics because hes the ones things went wrong for images/smilies/lol.gif

Maybe his hair fell across his face so he couldn't see

Donington · February 15th, 2007, 04:04 PM

God knows what catastrophe occured when james attempted to park. Remember the caravan?

alistair_1990 · February 15th, 2007, 05:23 PM

Some more pics of Hammond and his MG at the brits on www.thebrits.co.uk go to photos at the top and then arrivals, sorry there's no direct link.

ttyrants911 · February 16th, 2007, 11:18 AM

James May's Hair: i saw the getty pic but when i went to the "WENN" images site, nothing came up for the Brits.

Supercar_girl1 · February 16th, 2007, 11:51 AM

Tt, here you can see Richard's pictures:

And on page 19 and 20 of that site you can see Jeremy's pictures.

ttyrants911 · February 16th, 2007, 12:59 PM

I take it the lack of Lemarr pics (only one i can see) and no pictures of James and his limo can only mean that he ended up on the back of an AA truck again or got lost and ended up getting stuck atop a speed hump or something! images/smilies/tongue.gif

HondaF1 · February 16th, 2007, 09:24 PM

May probably hit a speed bump and the limo broke in half images/smilies/biggrin.gif

Donington · February 16th, 2007, 09:29 PM

So what were Hammond and May driving?

vRS · February 16th, 2007, 09:35 PM

Hammond had a MG TF is I remember correctly, there was a picture in the paper a few weeks back, but nothing of May's.

ttyrants911 · February 16th, 2007, 09:43 PM

May had an Alfa, a white one if memory serves me. He wrote some months back he loathed having to cut it in half.
*has visions of May opening a rescue centre for cars he has saved from premature deaths*
