Top Gear General Discussion Thread (Spoilers)

20x03 Episode 3

The two races with the same three cars was interesting especially the second one when they had to close the roof first and Benedict Cumberbatch driving the reasonably priced car was amusing as he did the most practice laps and finishing off with a street race in Madrid against The Stig was awesome

The Mercedes electric car being faster off the line than the petrol equivalent was surprising and I cant believe they attempted to build a van that can turn into a hovercraft but sinking on the first attempt was amusing but at leased the second attempt stayed afloat but shame about the steering

Richard travelling to Italy to drive a pair of Lamborghinis was interesting as the one was classed as a budget car and the other was just shy of two million pounds but The Stig spinning it was a surprise but getting the second top speed was impressive, Steven Tyler being second slowest in the reasonably priced car this week was unfortunate and the caravan test was incredible

Richard test driving the new Range Rover Sport was impressive but what a shame he damaged the bodywork and James test driving the New Bus for London in the countryside was bizarre but the three point turn was amusing, Mark Webber's interview was amusing and getting second on the F1 driver board was great as he beat his team mate, the range of British motors at the end was surprising

Richard rolling his old hatchback after they attempted to prove that the hatchbacks of their youth were better than their modern counterparts was surprising until he did the same in the supermarket challenge, Hugh Bonneville testing his driving skills was a strange coincidence as I just watched his on screen wife on the Kumars this week

Jeremy challenging Hammond to a race between his quad bike and Hammond's Alfa Romeo 4C seemed ridiculous but as the quad bike is not entirely as it first seems because it converted into a jet-ski but letting Hammond win was amusing, the incredible efforts behind the army's largest vehicle redeployment was surprising as James visited Camp Bastion in Afghanistan and Tom Hiddleston driving the reasonably priced car was impressive as it was pouring down with rain

Considering the Zenvo has a top speed of over 200 mph I was surprised how slow it was on their track and after setting one on fire at a price of £800,000 they were lucky to get another to test drive, the trip to Ukraine with small cars was interesting as they were able to drive through a submarine base but the final challenge to get the 60 mpg car to only do 30 mpg was fascinating as they needed to run out before getting to Chernobyl and James Blunt being this week's star in a reasonably price car would of been great if he hadn't swore so much

The Touring Disco Volante based on the Alfa Romeo was a great way to introduce the old art of hand-crafted cars but Jack Whitehall being this week's star in the Reasonably Priced Car was amusing as they had to teach him how to first, Richard test drives the six-wheeled Mercedes on the dunes in Abu Dhabi was great

Jeremy and James creating two public information film to promote safer cycling was amusing as it was more about getting off your bike to stay safe but only the London bus being the cyclists worst nightmare was a surprise as you would expect the taxi's to be just as bad and Aaron Paul getting top speed in reasonably priced car was impressive
