I started out with the intention of watching a couple then heading off but couldn't stop watching!!! What a trip!!! Me thinks the Toyota down hill trip was no accident, no way that it would make it down in any other shape but what it ended up in but it was all very entertaining!!!

Been a Top Gear fan for a few years now and watched this right when it came out - OUTSTANDING!

I heard about it at the beginning of the season and couldn't wait for it, I was nervous it wouldn't live up to my expectations.  It did.  Probably my favorite ep they've done so far.

Destroying the hilux back in season 9 (i think) was still better.

Wow, took a while but well worth the watch for sure. Fun concept they have there. Good humour.

Wow indeed....

I love the TG episode of the Ford Fiesta (Festiva?), whatever it's called.  Starts out like a normal review and degrades into crazy mall driving beach storming awesomeness.

Why does your Jeep say Toyota on it?
The obstacle is the path.
