I haven't DL'd any Top Gear yet, but with Fifth Gear on holidays until after the world cup, maybe now's a good time.

I think Top Gear is up to season 8 now. I like Clarkson, too many fantastic quotes to remember.

Stig has been a few people. Obviously race car drivers. see https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Stig
I download them, but this weeks one is really large ~700mb instead of the usual 350mb.
Yep its season 8, episode 5. 5 week break now for the world cup.

The other thing that annoys me is the stupid habit most Americans have of screaming "woo", at the slightest provocation - a sound which, unfortunately is being more frequently heard over here these days.

I'm with you on the squealing Matagi. My neighbours' kids shriek when they have their mates round. It's a noise that just goes straight through you - worse than the fingernails down the blackboard. Teenage girls and swimming pools is a bad combination as well

You know, I never thought I'd ever call a Merc 'sexy', but that CLS55 AMG is, well, sexy.

Pretty sure John Singleton has one of those, black amg jobbies, It does look impressive. Not 100% sold on the styling, give me a cl65 anyday (or a SLR, I won't complain).
Merc is the only major German car manu that I have not owned yet. One day.

I would love one of those. A super dooper NSU rota wouldn't be bad either

Prefer one of these
