Did anyone see top gear on Sunday? Was there an e31 on there?

I caught a glimpse of a Top Gear episode on Dave (UK Channel) and it had an e31 vs Jag XJS vs Mitsi Starion, think it was one of those challenge things they do. Was that this weeks episode?

I've never seen that one before so I thought it was the latest one, I'll have to get it if it was!

Saw it on reg channel on Sunday. Something that looked Korean against a sweet wrapper with an M5 engine. I think the sweet wrapper cost over £300k. 0-60 in about 2.5 seconds. And if I could spell banshee I would say the motor howled like one:)

No thats an older episode but a classic non the less!

This weeks one had the ascari a10 (awesome) and the challenge was for Hammond May and Clarkson to do a 24hr race along with their tame racing driver!

Its on the replay now if you have virgin media - Get watching it!!!!!

[e34.535i.sport]

Oh and the car they were racing was an e46 330d! Yes diesel!!!!

Thanks, I don't have virgin media, just freeview I'm afraid. I work on site at a Virgin Media owned company and I can get really good deals but they don't have cable in my area so I'm buggered.

I've been looking for the repeat so I can record it but I haven't come across it yet.

Anyone know what episode the e31, jag xjs, starion episode was or which season, I have seen most of them but I've never see or heard about this one.


Something that looked Korean

LOL, you mean like that ugly new Imprezza, that manages to look Korean without actually being Korean.

I'll have to download the latest episode from somewhere. Can you record the TVOD on Virgin media? Most people at my work have it.

pretty epic episode, jeremy clarkson was actually crying after he crossed the finish line of the 24hr

Good, the guy is horrendously biased - and quite ignorant.

Top Gear is primarily for entertainment value. If you want a drier more tech show, then 5th Gear is your answer.

...what? but that's your opinion...
Hmm... I don't understand, but alright.

It's still cool though, to watch them race around.
The guy I really think is annoying is that little rat-guy.

I think Clarkson is the man! He speaks his mind and we need more of that in this country. I know he doesn't like beamers but ma... One mans trash is another mans gold.

[repenttokyo]

What is it they say about it being better to keep quiet and be thought a fool than to open your mouth and prove it to everyone? :o

[e34.535i.sport]

'They' are oppressive and want to silence the masses...

"Speak the truth and shame the devil"... Go Clarkson! ;)
