FERRETINGMOUCHER 1 Posted July 30, 2007 Report Share Posted July 30, 2007 yes i watched it mate was a good watch, would of been shitting my self if i was in that truck when the ice was cracking Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Danny-Macca 0 Posted July 30, 2007 Report Share Posted July 30, 2007 I thought the dogs were going to win, but the toyota was a quality machine. The ice boulder didn't half do some damage when he was going fast through the boulder field Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Guest SHOT Posted July 30, 2007 Report Share Posted July 30, 2007 (edited) There lucky there was several trucks to pull them out i wouldnt mind seeing the same test but with all the top off road models, think a defender would be right up there.

Simoman 110 Posted July 30, 2007 Report Share Posted July 30, 2007 Definately one of the best Top Gear specials........... Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Guest oldskool Posted July 30, 2007 Report Share Posted July 30, 2007 flip it was class.... i think after they tested the old hi-lux to destruction it was only commonsense to carry out such an adventure in one of the new models... i was impressed... what a machine Quote Link to post Share on other sites
nelson 0 Posted July 30, 2007 Report Share Posted July 30, 2007 Best programme on Telly. All the presenters bounce of each other so well it's unbelievable, i also like the one where they make a space shuttle out of a Reliant Robin Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Guest JohnGalway Posted July 30, 2007 Report Share Posted July 30, 2007 Best programme on Telly. All the presenters bounce of each other so well it's unbelievable, i also like the one where they make a space shuttle out of a Reliant Robin I haven't seen them all as I don't always have access to the channel it's on but the three best episodes I've seen have been the HiLux, DIY stretch limo, and that robin reliant one Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Guest alastair Posted July 30, 2007 Report Share Posted July 30, 2007 good tv,very funny,i find it strange they have done 2 programmes on hilux so far,nothing to do with flagging hilux sales,me thinks a back hander has gone on Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Guest SHOT Posted July 30, 2007 Report Share Posted July 30, 2007 not sure rob it turns out that was a repeat all most missed myself. some info on it and some great shots of the hilux and terrain. i reckon anything that lives to see another day after clarksons driven its got to be good. http://www.topgear.com/content/news/stories/2067/ Quote Link to post Share on other sites
