Even the Euro version of the Ford Fiesta is better than the shit Ford puts out in the US.

Awesome. Epic win!

That 2nd video is even better than the first video. "Would you rather shoot from in here?"

Somehow the host actually made me want to buy a Ford Fiesta now...never thought I would ever say those words (I drive a Charger).

Because they're idiots.

Did anyone see the episode in which the boys drove from Basel, Switzerland to Blackpool, England to turn on the Christmas lights? They all got nearly 1000 miles out of a single tank of gas.

It's called a commercial. All commercials are like that.

Well it worked on you

Sorry probie but this clip is from an entertainment show. Most people find it so and don't worry about any concerns over substance or accuracy.

If anyone cares, and I'm sure no one does, at 2:07 they start playing the song:
Amon Tobin - Ever Falling

Amon Tobin is awesome.

Update: at 3:26 its:
Amon Tobin - Vanilla's The Killer

Someone there likes Amon Tobin

When top gear has nothing bad to say about a 120 hp family vehicle, the show has officially turned into one big commercial.

At the end of the shopping mall segment, it's Klazz Brothers & Cuba Percussi, 'Air'. The beach assault on the other hand was supplemented by Tchaikovsky's '1812 Overture'.

Classic! Some old fart complaining that they don't do real tests of cars anymore.

For anyone not informed, the original Top Gear (1977–2001) was a show where they tested normal cars in normal everyday situations. The new Top Gear tests supercars and sends smaller cars up into the blue in the biggest private rocket launch ever.

Not from me! Look at Top Gear, it's contrived and heavily scripted and certainly disingenous with many of the filmed segments. I don't mind as it's fun to watch but apart from the opinions expressed the show is not to be trusted

Erm, isn't that the whole point of the show?!

And yes, it's the only thing worth watching, along with Harry Hill's TV Burp.
