I finally saw that episode where they tried to destroy a 1984 hilux the other day, classic!

"It has 110,000 miles on the clock and, by the looks of it, only four of them were done on the road"

I reckon one of their best was when they tried to destroy the toyota hilux ute and couldn't do it. Many things were tried which you thought were just completely stupid. You can find that on you tube.

Clarksions car/boat thing was more like a water plough!

Loved the fact that the other 2 overheated from sealing the things up!

Its pretty funny that you should say that.
I am pretty sure that it is this series where they get one of those three wheel cars (the ones Mr Bean is always tipping over) and convert it into a space shuttle, firing it a couple of thousand feet into the air. Laughed my arse off

That's good, don't think I relate to being Mr Slow!

If I still had my Alfa, Reli I'd take you for a spin round the block, you may change you're mind.

Couldnt stop laughing when Clarkson cemmented the inside of the merc.
And the little chimmney was icing on the cake.
Must be a fairly high class person to buy one. With such adjustable seats and such a great heating system.
