OK, so I got my girlfriend into watching top gear, we watched the Bolivia special last night and she was totally into it. So what I need from Oppo is this...what are your favorite 5 episodes that I should watch next before it is *possibly* scrubbed from Netlix streaming? Series and episode number too please. It has been too long since I saw all of it to remember what the best were.

Also dont troll me with the Top Gear Us crap!

we have seen a few, but I think she needs to see some of the show to know what is going on there

I dont think so, but I will see. It is a good excuse for me to get her watching it this month though :)

if you can watch on iplayer the new season starts 25th jan. it will be available on iplayer then.

but it's frowned upon by the BBC and you should feel bad.

Series 5 episode 6. Cheap Porsche Challenge.

I swear that was the funniest thing ever to happen on that show.

As far as normal episodes go, you could pick by cars she likes or stars she likes. My wife loves doctor who, so I got her into it by watching the episode with David Tennant.

What about hulu?

Vietnam special is my favourite, Polar special comes close and the episode with the Carrera GT makes the list for some reason.

Botswana. Verbier. £100 cheap car challenge. Those were some of the old classics that are my faves.

That's eerily similar to my GF a couple of weeks ago. We've been making our way through the specials which have gone down well. Bolivia, Botswana, Patagonia and Polar have been hits so far. India and Middle-East not so much but still watchable. The rest are still to come :)

She hates the bits in the studio though, so I've been thinking about trying to get a download of a load of episodes and edit bits out to make a supercut of great little features. Things like the cheap-car challenges, motor-home racing, where they go caravanning, building amphibious cars, the one where they go lorrying, races etc.

funny enough, often times I hate the studio bits myself

That was the episode that I showed my girlfriend that got her enjoying the series.

Any of the cheap car challenges are my favorite, but the one that sticks out in my head is the 4 door sedan one in Germany.

No problem! I've watched way too much Top Gear in my life. Pretty much any episode is good, but those are my favorites.

I just got my GF into Top Gear too. It's pretty much the majority of what we watch now. She laughs at all of them, but the challenges are her favorite. Limo, cheap car, police car, hatchbacks. Those ones. But, we usually ship through the reviews and guests. Also, I heard that the date on netflix is just a renewal date. I hope it is, at least.

Also the specials. Those have been well received.
