Video: Top Gear Season 7 Episode 6
Top Gear’s Season 7 Episode 6 is now available. In this episode: Volkswagen Golf R32 and the BMW 130i. After originally conceding that the BMW was more fun and seemed faster on a dry track, Clarkson was amazed to see that the R32 trounced the 130i with a lap time of 1:30.4 over the 130i's 1:31.9. But it fell in line with his other heavy criticisms of the lack of practicality and the price of the BMW. httpv://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5ZanDoRmGto

Video: Top Gear Season 7 Episode 5
Top Gear’s Season 7 Episode 5 is now available. In this episode: Hammond reviews the Marcos TSO GT2. Hammond likens it to the much-loved Monaro in terms of its way of marrying muscular American power to easily controllable (if not actually nimble) handling, and also the TVR Sagaris - though when pushed, he admitted this was because it broke down several times. The Stig manages to take it to a time of 1:28.2. During the studio segment of the review, Clarkson "discovers" a tooth-whitening kit in the Marcos, to which ...

Video: Top Gear Season 7 Episode 4
Top Gear’s Season 7 Episode 4 is now available. In this episode: Hammond reviews the heavily revised Pagani Zonda F, with a carbon fibre Body, magnesium wheels, carbon-ceramic brakes, and an improved structure. The improvements to the car leave him genuinely speechless, and help it garner the fastest power lap time of 1:18.4 by The Stig. : Each presenter is told to buy a used Italian supercar for £10,000 and drive from Bristol to a strip club in Slough, with challenges along the way, including a lap around Castle Combe raceway ...

Video: Top Gear Season 7 Episode 3
Top Gear’s Season 7 Episode 3 is now available. In this episode: Clarkson reviews the Ford Focus ST (jokingly referred to as the ASBO), bringing a modern touch to British motoring. With as much power as the hot Renault Megane from last series, Jeremy lavishes the car with praise. The Stig takes the car to a 1:34.9 time, on a slippery and foggy track. If under normal conditions, it would have been the fastest hatchback yet tested. All three presenters each took a favourite supercar - a Pagani Zonda, a Ford ...

Video: Top Gear Season 7 Episode 2
Top Gear’s Season 7 Episode 2 is now available. In this episode: Clarkson, in an Audi RS4, competed against the climber Leo Houlding to see who could make it to the top of the Verdon Gorge in France. After he loses the hillclimb challenge he challenges the climber to descend faster than he does, whereupon the climber base-jumps to the bottom. Clarkson thinks the RS4 is a landmark departure from the usually tepid fast Audis, and hails the lightweight, high-revving V8 as one of the best engines ever made. Hammond and ...

Video: Top Gear Season 7 Episode 1
Top Gear’s Season 7 Episode 1 is now available. In this episode: The Ascari KZ1, a British supercar (although designed by a Dutchman with an engine from the BMW M5). The Stig then takes the car to a 1:20.7, below the Porsche Carrera GT. Hammond, May, and Clarkson travel to the Isle of Man to compare the new Aston Martin V8 Vantage, the BMW M6, and Porsche 911 Carrera S and choose which of them they like the best. The 23-minute film includes the presenters fishing, discussing the merits of the ...
