Afternoon all,

Quick heads up that episode 2 tonight has a feature from Camp Bastion, AFG. Captain Slow is checking out some of the British kit our lads & lassies use daily as their "Company Vehicles".

Some good toys will be featured undoubtedly which you may be surprised are on a par and some even better than the U.S. stuff. MY2010 TD4 HSE Santorini Black, 19" Alloys, Almond Leather, Lux Pack, Rear Spoiler, Adaptive Xenons

I was going to post a glib reply, but now seems inappropriate  SD4 HSE Lux Orkney Grey,Full size spare tyre,Ugly kid glass.

TG back on top form. Excellent!

Great Afghan report.

Fun @Como

And Clarkson passionate on the MacLaren.



... ...

Be true to yourself. That way happiness lies...

Excellent viewing tonight Change his name to Jennifer

I must say that in the hands of the Stig around the track, especially if its dry, the Porsche will have to be unreal to beat the McLaren  LL.B (Hons) - University of Derby
LOT (Lord of Time) - University of Gallifrey

That was one of the best episodes I've seen in a while! I loved the Afghan report, incredible vehicles, and not usually a fan of fast sports cars but the P1 was just a whole new level!

The company in Leamington that they referred to that armour-proofed the vehicles in Afghanistan was Ricardo MTC....they specialise in bomb-proofing moving vehicles. Good to see them getting a mention  Foraging near Gaydon....

MY12 HSE 2.2 SD4, Sumatra Black - gone after 10 months/43,000 fault-free miles

From the DT: "There are many plausible explanations for Top Gear's longevity as the show roars into its 21st season: the endless acres of gleaming bonnets, the reliably ridiculous explosions, the symphonic vrooming of overpowered engines. But it's the presenters' unpretentious enthusiasm that closes the deal.

The three musketeers of unabashed auto lust, Jeremy Clarkson, Richard Hammond and James May have kept the franchise revving loudly with their cocktail of every-bloke bonhomie and genuine passion..."

EXACTLY! May it NEVER change. ...

Be true to yourself. That way happiness lies...
