It starts this sunday at 8pm.

Someone on here had a contact on the program. Do they have any idea when the 8 will be reviewed?

 

Hopefully the first program.

 

First program has the Ford GT on AFIC, dont know about anything else.

 

I am afraid my contact has left the program now so no more inside news I am afraid.

I have set the series link on Sky and I suggest you all do the same.

Just got to install the 120GB HDD that just arrived in the SKY+ and I'll be ready!

 

I've checked the programme listings and absolutely no mention of the RX-8 in programme 1

"Jeremy Clarkson and the team return with a new series of the motoring magazine. Richard Hammond celebrates 40 years of the Porsche 911 by taking the GT3 to its limits, James May tries out the new BMW 5 series and Ford's latest supercar, the GT40, is tested. Plus, a tribute to the endurance of the Toyota pickup, and a chance to see how the show's 20-year-old Jaguar finally met its end"

 

But its not a 'GT40' only a GT :D

 

And it's very cool. I sat in one at the US grand prix

 

There is a half page on Top Gear in this weeks TV times, doesn't give any dates, but puts the RX8 up against the Z4 for best sports car. Unforgiveably though they have a small picture of the pre-production RX8 which has the shorter less agressive nose and narrow lights.

Doesn't look like its going to appear on next Sundays show either. TiVo lists the programme description as: "Motoring magazube featuring news on the latest cars, presented by Jeremy Clarkson, Richard Hammond and James May. A special edition from the Isle of Man showing what the team got up to during their summer holidays."

 

I believe Clarkson road tested the S2000 with some of its competitors on the IOM, so it could well be that.

I now live in Canada but do miss watching Top Gear. Can someone either find the clip and post it or give us a summary of what Clarkson has to say.

Thanks

 

Go to the BBC website and look up program schedules. Click
on Top Gear and it tells you what cars are being tested this
Sunday.

A stupid question, but as I am new to this can someone tell me
how I would change my name from fairfieldhouse (not my real name believe it or not). I have been in to edit but can't see how to do it.

 

I dont think you can change the member name - JimBobJoe or BlueAdept will be able to confirm this. As you've only done 2 posts though, perhaps creating a new logon is easier?

 

Can anyone confirm there conga cap this and post the file?

I will almost def miss this show, might bodge the VHS clock into action if I can defeat its technobable.

 

Just picked one up at the weekend. Think this will be it's first assignment!

Give it a couple of weeks and you'll never understand how you managed without one before. Tivo rocks.

By the way, where did you find one ? They haven't been made for a while.

 

I don't think member names can be changed, With a low post count I'd recommend abandoning that account and creating a new one.

I have a bad feeling in my blood that all reviews so far have gone too well. I can just hear Jeremy..."This car has less torque (talk)than a than a 'Halloween movie theatre"

 

Clarkson reviewed the RX8 in one of the newspapers (The Times??) and gave it quite a decent review.

 

Well he described it as an automotive toupee but otherwise it was favourable.
