Default Top Gear: Season 6

Its back!!...the new season of Top Gear has started . I just saw the first episode, they tested the Mercedes Benz CLS55 AMG, the Toyota AYGOS, they updated the cool wall, this actor came out and drove a normal car, it looked like a CityRover/Tata Indica 4 door sedan. They also tested the Range Rover Sport vs a British Challenger II tank, which was freaking crazy. I think the coolest part was when they played football with the Toyota AYGOS. They also showed whats comming up for the rest of the season. All in all..great episode, worth the download or veiwing on BBC!

It's only worth downloading since the Top Gear aired in India is just 30mins. I've compared all the 1hr episodes i've downloaded with the ones aired on BBC and i was amazed to see how much of the episode was cut to fit into the 30min bracket.

Yup, finalgear.com has both Top Gear and FifthGear episodes. For the torrents, i use Morpheus 4.8. It's awesome as you get torrent and peer to peer downloading in one software.

I find it to be much better and faster than Azureus.

Please don't overlook fifth gear, it has some awesome driving by Tiff, Jason and Vicki.

Also check out the 2004-10-11 episode of Fifth Gear for a race between Button's BAR Honda F1 car, 200+bhp Hand built Honda Racebike and a 250bhp Honda race boat.

It'll take them atleast 2-3 weeks to air last weeks show. I remember coz i used to download a TG vid and it would be 2 weeks before it was aired on BBC.

If you've got a good connection, don't look back, just go ahead and download those episodes.
