Didn't Toyota advertise the Hilux in Australia back in the 90's as "unbreakable"? With those two comedian guys.

Shaggy · 03-02-2006, 01:24 AM

AstinaBoiV6 · 03-02-2006, 02:21 AM

I play that Ariel Atom episode over and over again.

I do remember the unbreakable ad now. Who were the 2 comedians?

I look for heaps of Top Gear episodes on google video, you can save them now too, in iPod video size

Also been looking for lots of Best Motoring Int episodes too even though they're quite Honda biased.

I quite enjoyed the Top Gear clip posted on the OzMazda.com forum for the MX5 vs Greyhound http://video.google.com/videoplay?do...30574091845333

CRA23 · 03-02-2006, 11:23 AM

say that years ago, its nuts... still cant beleive that it still keep goin

did any one see the episode where they thrashed a supercharged jag, monaro, and a 300C on a beach in wales??

Griff · 03-02-2006, 12:35 PM

Just watched them take the new Monaro out (nostril model) and they showed the clip of that episode with the monaro on the beach. looked like fun!

Wonder how Vaxhal felt about that?

BBC world runs the latest episodes of topgear.. but it's cut down to 30mins where as the proper episodes run for 1hr.
