Team Lotus Formula 1 reserve driver Karun Chandhok taking on Clarkson's challenges around the Paul Ricard circuit in the south of France as he tests skyline GT-R, Lambo, Jetta and Porsche on which car can go the fastest round a corner and which is the best small, fastest hatchback around a track.

I am a Top Gear but am unable to watch each episode. Fortunately I have Tata Sky plus and someone at home is able to record it for me. Tell me, is there a way to download or record the recorded programs of Tata Sky plus so that I can keep wtahcing them again and not use up space in Tata Sky? I dont want to pile up recordings in TS pus unnecessarily.

I will be really grateful if there is way and someone could let me know :-)

When the current trio of Clarkson , Hammond and May eventually retire one day i wonder who will host top gear. It will be the end of top gear the best tv car show ever. I hope they never get older and keep giving us season after season.

Well my friend, Top Gear - The car show that it once was has been over, done and gone about 3 seasons ago!

What you now see is the personification of chewing on a gum after all the juice is over!

January 29th is the latest date according to Finalgear.com.

I believe this is the much awaited comeback of the TG boys after that catastrophic India special. What do you think? Looks mighty entertaining to me!

Marcus_520i has a point. They used to give us a good 10-11 episodes up until season 11. Now its reduced to 4-5 episodes.

Clarkson is 51, May is 48, Hammond is 42 yrs old. I think the show can go on for a few more years.

Just saw an advert on BBC Entertainment that says Top Gear Season 18 would air in India starting Feb 01 - Wed. 11 PM.

Dayyum! Is it? That is awesome news.

Many other shows on BBC-E are now almost close to UK broadcasts, glad TG is also joining the flock

_chikku · 28th January 2012, 00:22

I believe the first episode they would be airing would be the India Special. The actual episodes of Series 18 begin next week.

Hmm. The pictures look bloody awesome. Hope that the episodes are good.

@scorcher : The last pic is serious wallpaper material. Do you have links to their high res images.

MARCUS_520i · 28th January 2012, 18:34

Pics look great!

Only distraction is pic#7 where the girl in the blue/turquoise dress is posing rather awkwardly to say the least!

vnabhi · 28th January 2012, 18:49

I've had an overload of Top Gear today from 2 pm to 6 pm----and it is correct that Season 18 is coming on Feb 1st at 11 pm.

Waiting eagerly for it.
