The beach assault was hilarious. And, I can't wait for Chinese cars!

edit: mall chase was good too

"Is it green?" "Yes..." *pans around the green car* "very!"

It was a pretty fun episode this time around. Not as epic as the American episode, but fun nonetheless.

I loved the Commie cars segment. My family used to have a Moskvich (the one May drove in the quarter mile) back in the 80s.

I want a Caterham so bad! Ever since seeing "No. 6" blast a Lotus 7 around London in the opening to "The Prisoner" mini-series when I was a kid, I've wanted a 7-based car.

The Fiesta segment was crazy. I shudder to think how much money they spent doing the mall and beach landing sequences. Truly epic!

Yeah, the whole fiesta "review" was crazy sweet.

Oh god, I'm deviating from season 12, but it's just too good to ignore. I've essentially been watching Top Gear backwards ( kind of odd... ) and I got to the episode in season 9 (I believe episode 6) where they make a stretch limo out of English cars. Oh god, I was literally busting at the seams like Clarkson's Fiat Panda!

Damn, that Caterham R500 Superlight was totally epic. It beat the Veyron hard top! Ditto on the soup up Fiesta. Why can't we have something like that in the US?!

They're gonna test the Tesla Roadster next week, with Tom Jones as the guest.

I was laughing my ass off at the "putting badges on worthless stuff" part... especially with all the naughty references at the end (wizard sleeve (or as Borat says it... "like sleeve of wizard") and the cock).
