Top Clown returns Sunday 2nd November 2008 **SPOILERS**

[Sparky]

Plus JC got fed up and booted it. Maybe you was to busy not looking at the "pretty girls" to notice?

In order to make the trip on a single tank Clarkson would have to average about 33.6 mpg for the 800 mile journey.

Does the A8 have a 24 gallon fuel tank?

what is this? 12 year old pubescents drooling over the female audience members on top gear. <giggles> puh-lease.

Indeed, tragic... Have the peope drooling over the generics in the audience ever been outside?

if you are talking to me, that's kinda my point. JC could've eaily won it with miles to spare. It's not really that amazing.

edit (i mean the car is amazing, but the race is like, lets drive 100 miles, with 150 miles of fuel in our tank...)

don't know. I'm sure Jeremey at the end said the jag had a 18.7 gallon tank, though. at 5-6£ a gallon thats around £100. (it is petrol, yes?)

edit no, it must be £150ish to fill, and 28.7 gallons, surely. ?

remember when Clarkson took the Audi from London to edinburgh on one tank (and back) - how for was that in miles?

Giggling? Like a little schoolgirl? The ironing.

Hey, they were strategically placed to distract us from Enfield and Clarksons ugly mugs and boring cringeworthy conversation, I took full advantage!

Sadly now that you mention it the girls themselves did look a bit on the young side...
*hides in shame.

Anyway, yeah, Bugatti Veyron, awesome.

That she was

Long wavy hair, that she was.

Also the 2 to the left of Jeremy on earlier (blonde with the headband), and the one next to her with the long dark hair.

Enjoyed that episode, amazed that Jag made it, especially after he was trying to make it run out near his home, and Stig asleep on the rollercoaster.

 

[Robosapien]

On a(nother) side note, did anyone hear Clarkson comment about how he wasn't going to blow smoke up Enfields arse? I'm sure someone on here had that exact comment about the previous episode with Mark Whalberg. Maybe the top quality motoring section of ocuk has caught his attention.

 

[LoadsaMoney]

Haha yeah, Harry looked a bit bemused by that.

 

[Finglonga]

Great eye candy tonight! The one next to Harry Enfiels looked like Jewel Staite. Best programme . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . //

The blonde girl looks like micha or whatever from the bbc tv series Waterloo Road.

18.7 sounds about right - tis approx 85 litres, so £91 by my maths.

 

[FrostedNipple]

why can i still not download top gear to my computer. Streaming sucks, and the media player version is really crap quality! iPlayer is awful!

 

[geekyEd]

iplayer is excellent tbh, whats your problem with it?

 

[FrostedNipple]

well it has now been 3 and half hours since the pre-recorded show finished, and i still can't download it to my pc. It's pre-recorded they should upload it all before the program even airs, then when the show finishes just update all links and then it is ready to download.
