I watched them twice, fascinated. Sometimes it reminds me of Bambi (especially the bit on the ice) and sometimes it looks like two men carrying a big box, one walking backwards.
Oh that could be very funny. I love Top Gear even though I basically hate the whole car-as-status-symbol thing. What would those three dorks make of it. Nought to sixty in how many hours? It handles like a what?
I think I only ever watch it for its comedy value, but, hey, I drive a ten year old Mondeo with decorative silver gaffer tape covering three dings in the back bumper.
We did buy a new car about 9 years ago (a Renault Clio) and that was very exciting but we're unlikely to do it again. Before that, we'd had a Fiat Panda for about 9 years, so it was over 10 years old when it went.

And Clarkson, in spite of his "annoy most of the people most of the time" approach, can actually talk a lot of sense.
