16 Oct top gear challenges full episodes
Challenges included bringing Western-themed goods with their cars and building a stall to promote them, A mountain rally and modifying their cars to be better able to tackle the dangerous mountain roads. Only Hammond manages to finish the race, with Clarkson's scooter falling down a hill into a set of trees, and May aborting the mission and getting stuck outside a pub near Crickhowell. For £5000, Hammond bought a customised Chevy G20 V8 Van, which he lauded for its 5.7 litre V8 engine and its bargain price (compared to the £150,000 cost of a standard NHS ambulance). Clarkson begins with "that is a proud moment, but there's a slope on it" to which Hammond replies "you're right, it's definitely higher on that side". The presenters wanted to find out if it was easier to buy a car for a holiday rather than hire one, so each of them was given a budget of US$1000 to purchase a car, which they would take on a road trip across four US states, from Miami, Florida to New Orleans, Louisiana. Schmitz was still unimpressed, proclaiming that she could do that time in a van, and then lapped the Jaguar 47 seconds faster than Clarkson's time. Chris bought a Volvo V70 Bi-Fuel, Matt a Mercedes-Benz E-Class that was previously used as a taxi in Germany, and Rory bought a London black cab. Hold on tight and turn it up for a banzai lap of the TG track, 16 contenders, 8,553bhp and a festival to remember: welcome to Speed Week.
And Hammond?
However, it was the second attempt that was the more adventurous, as the presenters told that this time they would be crossing the English channel. As for Captain Slow, he somehow managed to get lost, causing his passenger to storm out of the car. The three were then told that they had to drive from Bristol, UK, to a questionable adult nightclub in Slough. Along the way, a firetruck is prepared to simulate the effects of a spring rain. The terrain in between is some of the toughest in the world—a mix of mountainous land masses and jagged sea ice where temperatures can drop to −65 degrees Celsius (−85 degrees Fahrenheit). James May, driving a 2008 Subaru Legacy, arrived 40 minutes after Clarkson. Despite Hammond making best progress thanks to his AWD, May was the first to find the true source of the Nile, making him the winner. This was to prove "to the people of Surrey that they don't need 4×4s in case there are leaves on the road." Both surviving cars made it to Lo Manthang where Paddy's Peugeot passed the city gateway with a very small margin and the Hulas being unable to clear it. The episode followed Clarkson and May as they attempted to be the first people to reach the Magnetic North Pole via car. The last challenge involved the cars being chased by the "TGPD" (Top Gear Police Department) to see how long they could evade pursuit. The presenters set off on a journey from the city of Gondar to the Afar Triangle, a place thought to be the birthplace of humankind. However, when he showed his co-presenters under the bonnet, May noted it had carburettors, making it the older 3.5-litre model. The team worked through the entire day and night to get the job done.
May broadsided him on as he passed, causing the brakes to become jammed on. These features have become much less prominent over the life of the programme (they were much more regular during the first four series); they have been superseded in later series by the "How hard can it be?" Eventually, Hammond had to deliver the after dinner speech, which didn't please the crowds.
The next test was ploughing, where the Track-tor did a rather poor job at it. Upon arrival at New Orleans, the three presenters found the city was taking a long time to recover from Hurricane Katrina and thus could not bring themselves to ask for money for their cars. There was also at least one armed guard travelling with the group. During a river crossing, both Chris and Paddy got stuck so Freddie had to tow both of them out each time. Later in the series May was proved correct when Clarkson's Mercedes broke down and he had to spend several thousand pounds fixing the engine's injectors. For the task, Clarkson bought a 1981 Rover SD1, Hammond purchased a 1972 Triumph Dolomite Sprint (with an additional £50) and May ended up with a 1978 Austin Princess, which was immediately ridiculed. This eventually broke, and his engine seized, forcing May to tow him.
During their journey they were given a series of challenges, which included the cars being driven around a track by The Stig's overweight "American cousin," doing 0 to 50 to 0 without over-running the track and thereby crashing into a river full of alligators, and camping a night in a field eating only roadkill. Their first test is an acceleration test to test for mechanical soundness. 10119 Margaret Ethel-Thomas Alfred Naylor, "Amazing space launch for ...Delboy's motor!". BBC Studios is a commercial company that is owned by the BBC (and just the BBC). Their next stop after Ollantaytambo is the Abra Malaga mountain pass, where the presenters enjoy the mountain pass' excellent view and smooth road. A lack of seat belts and unsecured seats meant they tumbled around inside the car. Hammond somehow managed to keep the convertible roof that was already placed on his car. Afterwards, the producers said that they should use whatever's left from their £6,000 budget to fix the car and make it road legal. After building the motorhomes, the trio was then told to drive to Cornwall for a "camping holiday.". They were told to report to Bognor Regis before heading for Essex for a road trip.
Clarkson drove the Hilux at high speeds in the water and was making good progress, however he rolled it over while trying to enter the pier.
Following the previous challenge[nb 3] the presenters were sent to buy coupes that weren't Porsches for £1,500 and report to Millbrook Proving Ground. The episode is noted for the hilariously large lorries used in the challenge, with Clarkson and Hammond both using an Isuzu TX and May opting for the Hino FB100. The trio are challenged to 'tinker' with their cars, with May simply fixing his so it works and adding continental yellow headlamps, Clarkson returning his to its original European specification (and having an epiphany as he did so), while Hammond gave his MGB sporting credentials with a new exhaust, bucket seats and a sporty paint scheme. May later admitted that he had arrived "no more than ten minutes" before the train. Paddy initially took the lead, but he ran out of runway and got himself beached. The presenters have no prior knowledge of what the tests will be, although they generally involve: All three presenters are highly competitive; vandalism and sabotage are commonplace, and any presenter whose car breaks down during a challenge will typically be abandoned to make their own way to the designated destination.
Challenges faced included a hill climb (during the return trip, Hammond crashed his Nova, setting up a running joke throughout the challenge,) a "supermarket sweep" gymkhana event through a closed supermarket, (with Hammond again finishing on his side), and a drag race, in which Hammond critically damaged his car's engine after accidentally changing from second gear into first instead of third. Paddy restarted and managed to do the course in 1 minute and 36 seconds. A victorious May discovered his wedding cake had toppled over, while Hammond drove so violently his car fell out of the lorry. In order to compete in the race, each presenter used a different mode of transport; Clarkson hailed a hovercraft, Hammond mounted a bicycle (this time a £9,000 bicycle,) May relied on a very tiny Renault and the Stig took public transport.
Winner: Clarkson, With a budget of £2,500 each including insurance, the three bought cars that were "ideal" for 17-year-olds.
The car, dubbed "Anne Hathaway's Cottage", featured a wood-burning stove, kitchen chairs, a flagstone floor, and wood with a cement base (weighing approximately two tons), even plastering the door trim.
Let's take a look at 10 Top Gear challenges that blew our minds and 10 that failed miserably. Next, they head to Fukushima to reminisce the Fukushima Daiichi nuclear disaster. Hammond again fared the worst with saliva, blood and pubic hairs, losing 30 points and, worst of all, faeces losing another 1,000 points. Chris bought a Maserati Biturbo while Rory got himself a third-generation targa top Chevrolet Camaro RS.
In the end, it was Clarkson's Bugatti Veyron that won, with Clarkson calling it the "the greatest car ever made and the greatest car we will ever see in our lifetime.". They were sent out to buy any hot hatchback from their youth - specifically the 1980s.
