Top Gear UK television BBC 2?

[m_bazeepaymon]

When should we expect Top Gear to present the E92 M3 (if they havent yet)... And does anybody know if they have mentioned anything about the M3 Road test?

They had the RS4 road test back in the days a long time before it was released in Europe. So I am just curious.

Hopefully they will drag the E92 M3 and the RS4.. and even if they do not show us the Drag times because of RS4's discontinuation. We will see the E92 M3's laptime at the Top gear track and that can help shine some light


So yea... anybody got any news?

Yeah, because the Top Gear lap times really mean something.

That show is for AMUZEMENT. Athough it's a good show it all rest on Jeremy's shoulder. And his personal quirks don't always translate to the best car.

But, it is HIS show, so I guess he is entittled to his opinion..!

If it means anything, Jeremy Clarkson has said in the Sun newspaper where he has a column that Top Gear WILL NOT be returning. He owns the production company that makes the programme apparently, so this could just be ruse to get a higher price from the BBC to make the programme. This was a few months ago.

However, one week ago, a story appeared on the BBC website that Top Gear were being criticised for damaging a lake in Botswana during filming for the next series. So believe what you like.


And as for the lap times round the Top Gear track. Utter tosh.

For a start, why do you think the Stig is disguised? It's because they can't guarantee the same driver every week, which means the times are completely unreliable.

OK, it is a bit of fun, but just realise that's all it is and the times mean frig all.

Top Gear will be returning in the fall (Autumn). A one-off special aired only last week called "Polar Challenge". I'm sure they will be reviewing the M3 in the next season .... I know the rival "Fifth Gear" show on C5 is planning on reviewing it in their next season.

I know top gear isnt that consistent but it is fun to watch.
And obviously they changed the driver... they say it themselves that their driver changes they say the old stig died or something lol

1st stig retired i think..

Gee some people get so worked up over this and other shows dont they?

LOL I think everyone knows these shows are more form than function.

I like the roadtrip/travel/race type skits they do, but could do without the celeb in the crappy car and the cool wall tho

Oh yes also heard as well that they will be returning in the fall.

If last night's TGTV polar special didn't have you hunting the web for a time machine to make the new series in October come quicker
