Pfff, this is still so hard. Here’s some more attempts:

4. Tiff - Honda S2000
6. Quentin - Cobra
7. Jeremy – Valentino Bilbao (Lamborghini test driver)

Yep, number 9 is the TG advert from the 2003 season.
Draak666 got number 4 allmost right, that was Jason Barlow(the dude from wrong car, right car now) with the S2000.

Ok, this is a hard quiz, I tried to make it hard so I succeeded in doing that.
One of the things that makes it this hard is that I picked presenter who are less known.

Anyway, next time I'll take care I pick more popular and better know vid's.

If no one knows I'll give the answers in a couple of hours.

Ok, last series of tips before I give away the answers.

5. Who else but Tiff and JC reviewed the Skyline... (if you don't know his name just describe him)
6. british classic still used in historic races wich is easy to handle and is faster in the corners then a lot of cars wich are allmost twice its size
7. was one of the test drivers of the Jaguar E-Type and other jags of that time
8. a small car wich they reviewed on TG this season
10. Not the clio, but starts with the same letter / a sportscar without any electonic aides to keep you on the road

Lets see if you now can get them all

5. Who else but Tiff and JC reviewed the Skyline... (if you don't know his name just describe him)
Don't tell me it's the fat jason guy from the 2002 top gear!

6. british classic still used in historic races wich is easy to handle and is faster in the corners then a lot of cars wich are allmost twice its size
Wonder if it's the Lotus 7

7. was one of the test drivers of the Jaguar E-Type and other jags of that time
Really not sure

8. a small car wich they reviewed on TG this season
Richard Hammond - Peugeot 206 GTi?

10. Not the clio, but starts with the same letter / a sportscar without any electonic aides to keep you on the road
Shelby Cobra?

1zippo1 · 06-30-2003, 04:51 PM

5 is correct... the others aren't

6. a SMALL british classic still used in historic races wich is easy to handle and is faster in the corners then a lot of cars wich are allmost twice its size

7. is really hard, I admit

8. nope, another small car, ... only one left again so

10. nope, not the cobra but a british sports car

draak666 · 06-30-2003, 05:21 PM

I never give up:

6. Westfield

7. Haven't seen the clip but I remember a name: Noram Dewis (or something)

10. British sportscar: Caterham

1zippo1 · 06-30-2003, 05:27 PM

6. Nope, never seen a review about the Westfield or the Lotus 7 on Top Gear, did you? I'm even starting to doubt about the car's origins because you don't guess this one. I thought this one would be quite easy. My mom once had one, and I'm not talking about the Lada

.

7. Yep, correct it was Andy Wilman doing a show on Norman Dewis.

10. Nope, you guys really are just guessing with number 5-6-10

draak666 · 06-30-2003, 06:04 PM

Damn. Since you write Small with capital letters, you must be talking about the Mini. Is it the Mini Cooper? It is indeed fast in corners and my mom had one too.

draak666 · 06-30-2003, 06:09 PM

Final guess for number ten: TVR Cerbera

1zippo1 · 06-30-2003, 06:20 PM

Pffff, at last

Draak666, you got 6 & 10 correct too so congrats!!

So only number 8 is left, but I'll just tell it: Jason May - Porodua Calisa.
That's that small budget car of wich he said it was the first thing to come close to the handling of the Mini Cooper, that was why he was entertained.

Ok, just a quick overview of the solutions then:
1. JC - Bugatti EB110
2. Quentin Wilson - Bentley Driving school
3. JC - Audi A8
4. Jason Barlow - S2000
5. Jason Dawne - Skyline
6. Tony Mason - old Mini Cooper S
7. Andy Wilman - Norman Dewis
8. Jason May - Porodua Calisa
9. Richard Hammond - TG advert 2003
10. JC - TVR Cerbera

AlienDB7 · 06-30-2003, 06:25 PM

This is pretty hard... it's almost embarassing how bad we did

6. Doesn't happen to be tiff on lotus elite? I had that in mind in the beginning, but don't think it's right.
8. James May - Perodua Kelisa (checked the video to make sure)

1zippo1 · 06-30-2003, 06:27 PM

To be honest I think I would have had the same problems as you but I just wanted to try and make it harder because last quiz was just too easy. BUT still very much fun

I like doing a quiz on top/5th gear.

AlienDB7 · 06-30-2003, 06:28 PM

This got to be the hardest quiz ever for this forum. It's fun thou.. Can't wait for the next one. Hopefully it won't require as much guessing

draak666 · 06-30-2003, 06:37 PM

Yes, well at least now we know where the limits of our top gear fanaticism lie

I guess most of us have over 100 clips now, so it can be really hard to remember them all. It most definitely was fun.

To be honest I've never heard of the Porodua Calisa before, what's it like?

1zippo1 · 06-30-2003, 06:46 PM

It appeared on Top Gear 2003 EP 4, if you want I can send it to you some time. James may took it for a drive and was quite positive about it. I don't like it's looks but the handling should be the only thing close to a Mini Cooper (wich I love), so I wanted to put it into the quiz.
