    Season ender - brilliant, loved it. Slash is just the dogs, Kimi was a good laugh, & the Rally Cross looked so much fun.

    More of that please Top Gear, all is forgiven :cool:

    Slash was brilliant. TopGear seriously need to work on getting better 'starts' - half of them I've never bloody heard of - or they have sod all interest in cars, only promoting their new book/movie. I really don't get why a show like that can't have better guests on

    Brilliant episode, a new M5, an old Ferrari, an F1 driver, an interesting star (Slash) and a real world challenge at the end involving all 3 presenters that looked like a lot of fun. Great stuff, can be a bit hit or miss these days but tonights episode was perfect, it should be like that every week :)

    tend to flick away from Star segments, and Slash has never lit my wick, I like raconteurs and he isn't one (nor is Kimi!)

    The rally-cross was a hoot, I'd like to have seen more of Chris Evans garage - white is an abomination though. :(

    €6.7 million, and he let James May drive it! "Avoid standing water" he said! Lol!

    Brilliant episode. Shame it's over. Not sure what I'll watch next week - I am almost sure it would be BBC HD though - they are a class above rest of the channels.

    That segment must have been filmed a good while ago because Evans has since sold the 250 California as well as the F40 and 288 GTO (both of which have been repainted to their original shades of red). He now has a 250 GTO which is being restored at the Ferrari factory.

    He looked like he was enjoying it, nervous at the start but loosened up after a while :)

    Great episode, and proof that they don't need to spend obscene amounts of money on stunts or exotic locations to make a good show.
