Note to self, do not attempt to outrun tank.
Bloody Good Show- So much better than the local shows. Plus they make fun of sissy government officals and beatniks.

Hope you al caught it tonight. Loved the test of the Range Rover Sport competing with the Challenger tank. Even the missus wet herself laughing. The game of football (soccer) between two teams ot Toyota Vegos raised a smile too.

Yeah, the shows just great. And I was allowed to watch it too instead of having to put up with BB. Even my missus enjoyed it. She even laughed at the tank race bit, and the 'door ball'.

I love top gear. The Tank vs Range Rover was a classic, and so was the Toyota football. It looked like a couple of those cars were going to flip after some of those collisions!

Caught the last part. Tank verse Land Rover.. Worth downloading..
It just reminds you why Top gear is such a good car show. And the car show is so completely crap. Gawd can't someone make a decent Aussie knock off with out boring annoying personalities. Land Rover sport looked completely girly with 60 angry tons of tank chasing it. |

 :Its the only car related show with non-aussie cars in it that i can really get into! I actually forced my own mother into watching it, and she loved it! That Honda was absolutely awful and the original description of being a nike trainer was just about spot on! The soccer match was great, they were all hanging back originally and by the end they were playing dodgem cars.... too cool
