Pretty good episode. The VE is in the news section and they basically just say this is the new one it has 2 extra doors over the monaro and is 35,000 pounds.

Yeah probably but it's interesting to see what JC says about an Aussie car.

Especially after that Season 9 American Episode !!

That's what I was thinking, but I figured I'd upload it anyway so people can see for themselfs.

Blink and you'd miss it, sadly. They seemed to heap a whole lot of praise on it, possibly on the back of the Monaro they tested. Something about a supercharged version putting out 500+ ponies as well.

Browsing around YouTube TopGear videos, and I found this:

Worth 1:10mins of my time, even if it really wasn't a fair race to begin with...

It sounds like you've downloaded the .torrent file. Torrents require a certain client or program do be used, such as uTorrent, Azureus etc. I'm not sure if you're supposed to give links to such programs on this site, but googling uTorrent will be easy enough, and it's a great program.

Thanks for that, I am glad I didn't download the whole lot if it was only for that.

I just watched it and even though they showed the Clubbie for a split second, I ****ed myself watching them make limos of their little $hitters and then driving the celebs to that awards ceremony.

That was one of the better goof episodes. Particularly being hit with a paintball in his gentlemans area.
