What's your favourite creation they made?

What do you think is the best vehicle they've built on Top Gear? Like the reliant robin space shuttle or a limo!

For me, I think it has to be James's amphibious sailing boat (series 8).

EDIT: Oh yeah, series 8) is meant to be series 8. I can't edit my poll to change that.

That was a difficult choice. S class cottage was really funny, but the convertible espace takes the crown. images/smilies/tongue.gif

I liked Hammonds Dampervan the best and I´m really looking forward seeing the new one in 2 weeks. It might not have worked (at all) ... but it´s simply great. It´s got charme, charisma ... it´s just cute, doesn´t matter if it won´t float ... or drive ... images/smilies/smile.gif

Was a hard choice between the Giant Panda and the Toybota. But the Toybota won.

Shuttle.

Their re-actions when it ... 'failed' were priceless, and I'm sure I wasn't the only one thinking whilst it was up in the air that this was actually maybe going to work.

I said the S-Class Cottage, simply because it was one of those rare moments where I actually cried from laughing, especially when Richard turns the corner and his stool just falls over, him with it

I think the toybota was the best; it was cheap and totally off the hook random. The premise of the competition resulted in the hilarity - and Clarkson's choice of vehicle design was a classic demonstration of his character. The outcome of the competition was spot on as well.

the shuttle probably cost them a good sum of money and the script seemed kind of forced. I don't think any one on the show seemed excited about doing it - it was something that was the premise of the episode but you could tell they weren't into it in the beginning.

The Reliant Robin was the most spectacular, which got my vote. The convertible people carrier was a close second.
