If this Blu-Ray contained any more adventure it would have a snake in it. South America Special: The Director's Cut: What happens when you take a tall man in jeans a small man dressed as Ray Mears and a shaggy haired man with the most ridiculous tool belt you've ever seen and you drop them deep in the Amazon rain forest? Well either you don't see them again until some proper explorers find their still-screaming skeletons. Or as actually happened you let them take along a trio of temperamental 4x4s and set them off on a 1000 mile journey through forest over mountains and across deserts in what turns out to be Top Gear's most exciting dramatic and visually stunning adventure to date. Romania & Bonneville: The Director's Cut Romania: When the Top Gear team received whisper that deep within Romania lurked one of the world's best driving roads they had no option but to seek it out. And to do so they got hold of three superb convertible supercars in what became an incredible Eastern European adventure. From a noise test underneath the world's heaviest building and James's romantic encounter with the Dacia Sandero to a small accident with the locals and Jeremy in a silly hat this trip has everything. And best of all it culminates with three wonderful cars enjoying absolute petrolhead nirvana. Bonneville USA: Jeremy Richard and James head to the United States to see if the Americans still make any good cars. Unfortunately there's a small error with their visas and the US immigration authorities will only let them in if they promise not to do anything entertaining. So with serious faces on they set off on a proper old fashioned muscle car road trip to the amazing Bonneville salt flats. Along the way Richard becomes an amateur aerodynamicist Jeremy discovers a strange security problem with one of their cars and Captain Slow discovers a hitherto hidden love of fast driving in what turns out to be a dusty dirty slice of pure car lover's heaven.
In between mercilessly pulverising the motoring industry's slackers and bagging themselves a place in the cockpit of the latest sleekest and fastest drives Jeremy Clarkson James May and Richard Hammond have had some fun racing crashing and generally mucking about in the most unlikely vehicles. Now direct from the Top Gear bunker Richard brings us the best and most requested petrolhead stunts from the unmissable show's recent series.
Ever since man first invented the combustion engine he has been driven by the desire to go faster and faster on four three two and even 1 wheel. And it's not always been a success story as this DVD shows. 'I've been fortunate throughout my career to drive some of the world's fastest and most beautiful machines. Some of them are here but so may more are humble creations which have made their own mark and they will on you too.' Terrific ""on-board"" coverage from some of the wo

The Clarkson Collection 2 is a 4 disc supercar bonanza featuring Powered Up, Thriller, Hot Metal and The Good, The Bad, The Ugly.There are the cars, including the Ferraris, the Porsches, the Lamborghinis and the Aston Martins to name just a few. Then there are Clarkson’s hilarious no-nonsense rants, the Stig in action, guest stars, behind-the-scenes stuff and brilliantly stupid stunts – and yep, everything else explodes…
India Special:In their most politically perilous overseas adventure to date, the boys defy the Prime Minister by embarking on a trade mission to India armed only with three old British cars, a trouser press and a badly behaved lawnmower. Along the way they attempt a disastrous train-based advertising campaign, host a rather unusual garden party and invent a brand new sport called straight six cricket. Plus, Jeremy has a small accident, Richard gets an unfortunate insect bite and James makes coronation chicken in the most colourful and comical special Top Gear has ever made.Supercars Across Italy:Closer to home, the presenters set off on a glorious road trip across Italy in three incredible supercars - the Lamborghini Aventador, the Noble M600 and the McLaren MP4-12C. Their adventure starts with an eye widening max speed run at the vast Nard proving ground which tests not only performance but also sheer bravery. After that the boys head towards Rome, encountering relaxed policemen and work-shy mechanics along the way, before continuing north for a date with one of the toughest and most dangerous challenges they've ever faced - hot laps of the uncompromising Imola Grand Prix track. Great cars, wonderful scenery, hilarious banter and the Stig's Italian cousin - this is Top Gear at its very best.
Which is faster round a race track? A Porsche 911 or the fearsome Yamaha R1? Which would you rather have? A Ferrari 360 Modena or the new Aston Martin DB7 Vantage? Which is the best road going rocketship? The BMW M5 with Tiff Needell at the wheel? Or the Jaguar XJR which uses a tank for back up? Then there's the new breed of Japanese super tech cars. Which is best the Evo6 or the 22b? And can the Japanese silicone wizardry beat European style? And there's more. Marvel at th

It's that time of year to start thinking about that perfect Christmas gift - or a treat for yourself... And it's that time of year to be thinking about what might just be in my new dvd. Well we've come up with a title: The Italian Job. That might give you a clue to where it's being filmed. Coming up with that title did take quite a lot of our time so the actual content is still being sorted. But because we're going to Italy there could be some Ferraris. There could be some Lamborghinis... and a Zonda... all going very fast. There could also be some pasta in a rich tomato sauce - which could get a bit messy for a certain tame racing driver. I'm sure there might be some other cars to whet your appetite as well. There'll be lots more to tell you nearer Christmas - when we've come up with some more ideas. For now Bon appetito....
For my all new DVD, I'm in the South of France. My base? - The high-tech testing ground for Formula One - Circuit Paul Ricard.My mission? - To find find my favourite car of the year.My candidates? - For starters there's a pair of Ferraris... the V12, 6.3 litre FF and the 458.There's the UK challenger to the 458... McLaren's MP4-12C. Joining the action are the latest gizmo-laden Nissan GTR, Porsche's GT2 RS, the 570-horsepower Lamborghini Performante and the built-for-fun BMW 1M.Helping me are tame racing driver The Stig and the not-so-tame Formula One new boy, Karun Chandhok. I look into the future - in the shape of the hybrid-engined Mugen Honda CR-Z... And there are blasts from the past as well. The beautiful Eagle Speedster - a modern twist on the iconic, timeless E-Type...with its 4.7 litre engine - and an eye-watering 500,000 price tag. And there's the all new Jensen Interceptor R with its 6.2 litre Corvette motor.Plus, from the minds of boffins at a German museum, there's the mighty Brutus...a vintage car fitted with a flame-spitting BMW airplane engine. Also there's enough in-your-face power to flamb your eyebrows from the single-seater, super-lightweight B.A.C. Mono - capable of 0-60 in 2.8 seconds.Circuit Paul Ricard tests all these cars and more to the limit... But it's not all about performance on the track. I take to the open road to see if small can be beautiful. I squeeze my sizeable know-how into the bonkers Citroen DS3 Racing, the pocket rocket Abarth 500C and the dinky Renault Clio Cup. How to sum up all this action...Well, I sit in a chair, a man has a mishap....And a brown car goes round a corner....What more could you want?... ENJOY.....
Once upon a time, three men and a tame racing driver travelled the world, testing cars, solving problems and arguing about who was the biggest idiot. This is a collection of their very finest moments of exciting racing, brilliant inventions, hilarious disagreements and sudden explosions.
