Top Gear crippled by economic crisis. Or is it?
Edited on Mon May-11-09 01:32 PM by flvegan
Some spy video was shot of the fellas in the UAE filming an episode featuring 4 cars...a Bugatti Veyron, Lamborghini Murcielago, Mercedes McLaren SLR and one of the absolute kings of the automotive world, the McLaren F1.

That's roughly $4 million worth of cars. Of course, being in the UAE, they probably just picked at random lottery from some Shiek's collection.

And yeah, I'm drooling in anticipation. June 21st, hurry up.

1. I JUST saw that
Courtesy of my Google news alert for "Top Gear". Yeahhh WTF? Not exactly economical cars, not exactly a budget trip. Add the one to the rally race in Majorca, and maybe they're taking the producer's words to heart--blow all the money and then do shite shows at the end of the season...?

My main thought while viewing the short video--poor Stig! He's gotta be roasting.
:rofl:

Hurry up June 21 INDEED. :bounce: :bounce: :bounce:
