Not typical of Top Gear episodes, but a very, very good one! I loved it!

From the title of this thread, I was expecting a Peter North video...did I just say that out loud?

 That's alright though - I think I've missed one or two of season 8.

Well done, as usual. --Toyota has got to be loving it.
But, the GPS co-ord's didn't have them at the pole.

I downloaded it via Bit Torrent in HDTV format, burned it to a DVD and watched it last night on my big screen. That was simply the best Top Gear show I've seen. I was riveted. Brilliant!! (as Jeremy Clarkson likes to say)

Great stuff. I know Clarkson gets bad-mouthed because of his dislike of the US and the Porsche 911, but I think this is the best car show ever. Very entertaining.

I like him actually. He's funny. So he doesn't like the 911. No biggie.
