Does Old Top Gear count?

Has to be Tiff Needell cacking himself in Peter Lantz's Top Fuel Dragster.

No real absolute favorite bit but here are a few i reckon are good....

1. 'Dartboard Cars'
2. Michael Gambon doing the last corner on the track in a dinner jacket on 2 wheels....
3. The £1500 sports car challenge
4. £100 car challenge
5. The A8 V8 Diesel doing London-Edinburgh-London on one tank of fuel....
And loads more....

Anyone know where i can get downloads of the show from?

When they sacked the diesel loving Chris goffey. Closely followed by the revelation that William Woolard had been taking bungs from manufacturers!

Clarkson's best moment was having to own up to crashing McRae's Focus WRC. Wally!

Years ago at the 'petrol apocalypse', sneaking an LM600 out of an aircraft hanger for some runway antics.

3-up Ford Puma sideways.

Snot green Mondeo Cosworth trouncing DB7 vantage and 360.

There have been so many but for me the best ones are:

- The Hilux pick up which would not die
- Tiff driving like a mad fool in a Puma, 3 up.
- The old vectra review - utter genius

Can't believe no one has mentioned the killing off of the original Stig with the XJS off the aircraft carrier - that was priceless

That was my first ever post, "what the heck, I'll try the forums" I thought. Wierdly how come this post seems like it was ages ago yet that episode of Top Gear doesn't seem that long ago?

Anyway, 10,000th post party

When they reviewed the E63 AMG, that noise. Or the Vietnam trip, or Botswana, or the classic british sports cars.
