This. Although I loved them wiring the brake to the horn. For some reason I found that hilarious. But then again, I am on medication since I am home sick today.

Dude, Top Gear hasn't been about cars for years...

It's an entertainment show, that occasionally has cars as the focus.

FWIW, it was silly but i enjoyed the India special. Made me want to go up to Shimla again!

The Special was good, not great. Overall quite entertaining, but never like the South America, or last years 3 kings special.

Best parts:

-James Cameron
-The train Banner
-Jeremy at the party sales pitching for the pants Iron Board ( I spilled what I was drinking with that)
-And the stop-horn mod I believe it was epic.

Good ending.

I didnt like it too much either, but it was okay. Got better towards the end. The problem is indeed that its hard for TG to always do a better show than the last.

What they forgot to mention was they have invited the a Supercar club to the party, hence all those cars. Their experience of Indian highway was quite funny.

I felt they could have done sooo much more covering the traffic situation, because it is absolute mayhem over there.

I have never been so scared my entire life
