Thought this was a fun read. A lot of fun for very few dollars (and some surprises too). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thriller Posted April 28, 2011 Share Posted April 28, 2011 Heh...I'm splitting time between the computer and Top Gear on TV right now...the episode where they take three cars to the Eaton proving ground and the Roadmaster wagon wins...more proof positive that these are great cars.

Guest sintid58 Posted April 28, 2011 Share Posted April 28, 2011 We just got a dvr and the first thing I programmed was BBC's Top Gear. I had my own marathon of Top Gear earlier this week. It's one of the few showa I laugh out loud at. I wonder what they have planned for the royal wedding. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rawja Posted April 28, 2011 Share Posted April 28, 2011 The Roadmaster torture test was on the American version of TopGear. Not a bad show, but not quite as good as the Brit version. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NTX5467 Posted April 28, 2011 Share Posted April 28, 2011 Agreed, the USA version is not nearly as good as the orig version. Not nearly as well thought-out, it seems. The deal where they took three cars over a motorcycle "track" was flaky, but proved just how strong the '76 Coupe DeVille was . . . which was better than I expected. I hadn't seen the USA version in the listings so I thought it had been cancelled.Enjoy!NTX5467 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That particular show made my blood boil. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest sintid58 Posted April 29, 2011 Share Posted April 29, 2011 top gear bbc gets by with alot of things@ the epa would frown on. Sinking cars in a lake that have gas and oil in them comes to mind. I just love the brit show and usually when they convert something from bbb to the usa they can't seem to quite get it right. I should probably take a ook before I judge it.
