So apparently some people have never seen Top Gear and thanks to the kerfuffle (Yes I'm mean to use this) and it got me wondering which clip would you use to best demonstrate what they missed out on WITHOUT using a compilation or a best of.

For me it has to be the Fiesta review.

I love using S16E4 to introduce people to Top Gear.

-Pagani Zonda R review.

-Second-hand convertible challenge (all three hosts end up going with a BMW 328i)

-Simon Pegg and Nick Frost in the Reasonably Priced Car.

Fantastic episode.

I don't usually use episodes but that is pretty damn good one to pick.

I don't use clips. I usually have them watch a whole episode with me. Race to Oslo with Clarkson in the McMerc and Hammond and May getting hammered on the ferry or the Botswana episode usually do the trick.

I would show them a the episode when they go from Florida to Louisiana. It has cars and humor which is what top gear is about. It also has one of the best scenes in Top Gear history where they get chased out of Alabama!

I get them into it by showing them the current season, watching 7 episodes of it, then letting them down when it's cancelled.

I starred you just for using kerfuffle. I love that word.

Car Darts is one I usually go to. Or any of the (car price here) (car type here) challenges.

One of my friends once called this the greatest 7 minutes of television. I tend to agree with him.

For me it usually depends on who is asking but the Florida/Alabama roatrip, London to Monte Carlo race, Artic expedition, or one of the many Christmas Specials.
