Top Gear Is Back!

[XB70]

Top Gear returns to the Discovery Channel this Thursday with five shows from 7:00 p.m. until midnight.

I missed at least two of the shows when it was on for a brief time last year, so I don't know whether the shows are new or repeats; at least one of the titles sounds familiar.

Was the show with the lady driving the delivery van around the Nordschleife aired last year here in the states? I've seen it online, but not on television.

XB70,

HURRAY! Glad to see it back. Yes, the German Girl who drove the Ford Van around the track, was shown last year. I hope that The Atom Car, will be shown, it made Jeremy's face flutter in during the high G forces! FUNNY!

Toyota HiLux, I am sure this would shatter many of the so-called perceptions and myths.

No comparison.
Top Gear is much, much better!
BTW, what season are they gonna be rebroadcasting?
The last episode of season 7 has been aired in UK on Dec 27 2005 where they raced a dog and a computer game.

You guys have no idea what you're missing. The American version of the show is just terrible compared to what the Brits get. Do yourself a favor and hit up finalgear.com, grab some torrents, and enjoy.

it maybe terrible but better than no top gear at all. that german girl is awsome. I bet she would do great if she ever went pro.

English television is the best in the world by a mile, a big mile. Real reality. Does America get much of the other awesome U.K tV programs?

 

[robbobster]

sprintman,
Nope.
We get reruns of Fifth Gear, that's about it.

You have to look at the Veyron episode. Maximum volume on your home cinema setup. Whoa.. that car is crazy.. and Jeremy of course ... it.

Is this the BBC version or the new "Americanized" Top Gear that is coming to Discovery?
