Default What location...

What location was the RX-8 and the BMW 5 series filmed in? Looks familiar to me, but I can't place it.

(Series 3 for both, 3x1 for the BMW and Not sure on the '8)

The begining of the RX-8 segment, when JC is talking about the doors and the stlyling, looks like Dunsfold itself. Ya know, maybe one of the buildings around the hanger.

Good luck finding out though images/smilies/thumbsup.gif

You know the BMW 5-Series has been on the show in many different forms so you should try to be more specific in future. I'll just assume you mean its first test w. James May. I think May tests the 6-Series in the same place aswell...I dunno who cares where its tested.

images/smilies/lmao.gif I'm laughing cos someone had a banner that said "wrestling = gay porn!"

I was invited to go for free (probly cos the tickets were SHIT).

I hate the wresting and its even worse when your there in person because you can't see a thing thats happening when your sitting at the back and without the commentators, its just a bunch of built up American men in tights pretending to look hurt. Its gay gay gay...but then again, we do have the mardi-gras this weekend haha.

Actually, I was interested, because I am a wolverhampton alumni - go tmy Bachelor's and Master's there.

After classes, we got the quick lesson not to drive our car in London (traffic), so we took to venturing to other areas.

Been up to land's end in SL, and I've seen a TG episode where Jeremy drove to the same place I've taken photos...

Also driven the Isle of Man, and WHAT A GREAT PLACE! NO SPEED LIMITS (outside of town anyhow)

That's why I thought I remembered seeing it somewhere.

Thanks SL65 for admitting you enjoy looking at men in tights. images/smilies/unsure.gif Nothing more homosexual.. lol! Also appreciate the flame. Now I'm not a noob.

I never said I enjoy wwe images/smilies/bangin.gif I hate it with a passion. You need the mental age of a 6yr old to enjoy which makes me wonder how there are soo many fans.

Anyways, I still don't see why you'd wanna know where the review was done. Its like an industrial site or something.
