Nissan 370Z Forum  

I'm Right This Time! - Top Gear = 370Z = Sunday 26th July '09

Chubbs, you want to start a dedicated thread before the show airs? We have almost a week so we should be able to get 75 or more estimates by then.

Unfortunately, it's being driven by Clarktw@t, who will think it's funny to call it a Datsun and slag off the 350Z.
Can You Confirm! I Looked at the guide at bbc ch 189 and there's no top gear scheduled for that day. I'm on verizon fios
top gear is scheduled for monday 27 at 5:00 pm

I can download a 1hr show in under 10 minutes, but who is counting?
If I want a show I get it from the source or from a real high quality angle, it requires knowing some people but I give a little and get some back.

Anyone managed to find it yet, or a link to it?

It's a good review - beautifully filmed. It makes the Z look as beautiful as it would do on a proper Nissan advert.

Unfortunately Clarkson has to be a tw@t occasionally, but that's just about self-promotion, rather than the car.

MUCH better than his 350z review.

shame I can't show you guys - unless you can have some joy with this link (one person did last time)...

BBC iPlayer - Top Gear: Series 13: Episode 6 (new series)

or this...
