Default Top Gear - S9 EP6 - 4th March, 2007 - Discussion

This week they build their own stretch limos out of the most improbable cars and then use them to take some top celebrities to the Brit Awards. Meanwhile, a good ol' boy Ford Mustang whoops around the test track and Billie Piper is the star in a reasonably priced car.
Limo feature should be funny, as for the mustang, i'm not much of an American Muscle guy so anyone have any thoughts on what type it is?

I woner what Mustang is going around the track? Perhaps the GT500? The limos should be interesting and funny.

I assume the Mustang will be the GT500. Can't think of anything that would be worth having on.

More cars would be awseme but if it was just that then they wouldn't have 7.4 million viewers every sunday night in the UK alone.

Anyway, just heard a rumor that this may be the last episode in this season.

What? Already the last episode in the season :shock: I hope you´re wrong! Anyway sounds like a funny episode with the self-buils limos and Clarkson will surely make fun about how bad the Mustang handles

The Relliant Robin Space Shuttle, despite being hilarious... was not related with cars in any way.
Completely agree!


I guess Top Gear is another example of how nothing good lasts forever.

yep, I too can confirm that (unfortunately) the show no longer appears on the online tv guide.

However there may be some good news (rumor again), one, they may be going back to "regular" schedual which means that they may be back in May or June and then again in the fall (late Oct/Nov) Or the second possibility is that they'll only be back in the Fall.
