anyone that missed it 1st time around, it can now be played/downloaded on BBC iPlayer http://www.bbc.co.uk/iplayer/episode/b0087f0s/b008j400/Top_Gear_Series_10_Botswana_Special/ (http://www.bbc.co.uk/iplayer/episode/b0087f0s/b008j400/Top_Gear_Series_10_Botswana_Special/) Cheers Tony, Title: Re: Top Gear Botswana Special - BBC iPlayer Post by: MattNoVAT on February 08, 2009, 11:15:21 PM I caught this earlier this evening, a great way to unwind after a day in the garage.
Though I can't help feeling that had the Beta been a manual box as opposed to an auto...it wouldn't have had quite so many problems! (It would have still had problems) ;D Was I on my own just willing the Beta on to the finish-line? :-\ Title: Re: Top Gear Botswana Special - BBC iPlayer Post by: cheeky monkey on February 13, 2009, 08:24:19 PM I caught the end of programme by accident.. Quite glad as i remember first time round cringing when clarkson smashed the front grill in to loose some weight off the car. It might of faired better if the lighter Hammond had driven it.. .. I think his Opel Kadett was restored by the team on Practical Classic Mag.
