Top Gear - S9 EP5 - 25th February, 2007 - Discussion

[vexor]

This week they go all rural as they harness a group of high-tech tractors and attempt to grow their own petrol. Meanwhile, the Lamborghini Murcielago LP640 dances with the devil on the test track and Kristin Scott-Thomas is the star in a reasonably priced car.


Here's the Murcielago episode all of you wanted to see. :D :wink:

[Ghostbat]

Sounds like aanother good episode and I bet Clarkson is glad to have Kristin Scott-Thomas as a guest.

LP640! Can't wait. I wish top gear was longer it would be great, one hour of it isn't enough for a week.

[poltz]

I bet Clarkson will like the Gallardo Spyder better.

More detailed info from TG homepage (look at the pic :lol: ):

Don’t adjust your sets folks, because this week Top Gear really is going green.

On our most environmentally friendly show to date, our intrepid presenters have a go at growing their own biofuel. But to do the job properly, first they need to test some really massive tractors on the Top Gear test track.

We then resume normal service as Jeremy tests the latest model from the daddy of supercar manufacturers – Lamborghini.

Also, actress Kristin Scott-Thomas adds a much needed touch of class to the proceedings, as she becomes a star in a reasonably priced car.

/\/\ LMAO!!

a 1.15 laptime perhaps? :mrgreen:

[martin100]

[TopGearNL]

/\/\ LMAO!!

Sry, but what are you laughing at? :?

Either you didn't look carefully enough or you have absolutely no sense of humor... :? :P

[TopGearNL]

/\/\ LOL! Glad it wasn't not having a sense of humor :P

[martin100]

I´ve just been on the TG homepages powerlap list, and accidentily they´ve already added the LP640s time. I won't mention it here of course but if you want to take a look yourself here is the link:

[TopGearNL]

/\/\ Weird, why would they do that? Accident perhaps :bah:

Anyway thanks Martin!

[obdr]

Im just wondering when they are gonna test the Saleen S7. Every other supercar seems to be a foregone conclusion..........

They tested the GT500, they tested the Z06........now why on earth cant they test the most Americas supercar of them all: The Saleen S7.

CGT = LP640 :shock: :D

[TopGearNL]

/\/\ True I guess about the S7, never seen any in the UK btw so wouldn't be surprised if that were it..

[vexor]

Discuss the episode here if you've seen it.

[Svensson]

Just finished watching. I really don't like the direction TopGear is going lately. A train smashing into an Espace, over half an hour of tractor-nonsense without an actual end result, an interview which was more about Jeremy in love than about cars and just one(!) car-test! Ok, the LP640 isn't just some car, but the whole show is getting ridiculous...

[Stoopie]

I absolutely LOVED the LP640 bit, brilliant! But I hated the part with the tractors, it was funny at times, but I absolutely don´t see the need of highlightings this throughout the episode, especially when we have to wait a year to see the result!

[TopGearNL]

Like some members already said its more turning into a family entertainment program then a car program sadly...

- The Train-Espace feature was interesting, God it does some serious damage that!
- The Tractor bit was funny at sometimes but what the hell did it have to do with TG, sorry please cancel those sorta things in the future TG!..
- The LP640 review was great in every way, I love that car! It sounds a bit like a F1 car at high revs!

Overall not a bad episode, but not the best we've seen.. :wink:

[Max Power]

JCB Tractor, Stig trying to steer

ROFLMFAO :lol: :lol:

[rave426]

These are without a doubt the most "entertaining" Top Gear episodes of the time, but you guys are right about it getting away from cars a bit.

[Caplax40]

Man, sorry for resurrecting a dead thread, but does anyone know the song that plays when Clarkson takes off while using the launch control?
