I thought it was great too; they have really found the level with that show. I think the greatest compliment you can pay it is to say that you don't even have to be particularly keen on cars to enjoy it, but at the same time, it doesn't alientate those who are. It just a pleasure to watch a show where everyone so obviously has a great time making it.

not sure whether they shouldve had the bit about the pink micra on first...

as much as i enjoy the show, isnt it becoming less and less about the cars and more and more about a soapbox for clarkson...?

i wonder how hamster and james gay feel about playing second fiddle to him...(i suppose the fat wedge they get at the end of each month eases the pain...!!!)

Question Top Gear and the Honda Civic.

Anyone know where that piece was filmed? Los of futuristic buildings and "stuff" in the background.

Been a couple of years since I've been there, but isn't it just outside Swindon on the road to Cheltenham? Honda territory round there so could even be the factory?

Whats your opinion on the car wash fire mr micky? Reckon it was a setup surely that motor would have cut out before bursting into flames, still cracked me up though.

from what i am told by the engineer

they rekon a small "charge" was setup to make it blow

still not seen the incident yet, but the online version is playing now so hopefully it wont be to long, although its buffering like hell

i have never seen a motor blow up, and mine are the same motors , there all on breakers anyway and shut everything down before there is even a probem.

they were not supposed to do the filming there from what i have been told, there request was denied, hope they made it worthwhile for the lad who runs that site, as he will be losing it no doubt for breach of contract

I thought on a "million pound" carwash they would at least have a thermal cut out on the motors.

Fecking right, unless the sparkies who wired that place were seriously incompetent. Still looked a bit dodgy them getting out and doing a runner halfway through surley health and safety should have a word
