Spotlight customer reviews: Customer Rating: Summary: Mixed emotions Comment: This one has me a bit perturbed. I loved the Polar special, it has everything you would expect from the Top Gear team and more. The guys were on top form here and Clarkson's attempt to become the worlds most rubbish explorer is excellent. And then we watch the US special full of expectation and nervous anticipation. But the disappointment is almost too much to bear its a heap of disjointed clips that seem to be put together by a blind monk ! C'Mon guys sack the editors... Customer Rating: Summary: american road adventure with humor Comment: Jonathan Ross, would be funny compared with this dvd content of humor. Should the details be provided, hell no (American accent). Adrenaline pimp my ride roadie... full of unexpected turns. Customer Rating: Summary: top gear Comment: the american challenge its the usual of what you see on the telly. the polar challenge its brilliant because there are parts you have never ever seen on the tv and also its top gear!!!!!!!!!! 10/10 Customer Rating: Summary: No No No No No! Comment: Who ever compiled these dvds should of thorght more about the viewer. All the music has been changed and chunks of film are missing. Don't bother. Customer Rating: Summary: TERRIFIC.............BRING IT ON BOYS!...................... Comment: Two top adventures from the fab trio. Firstly Clarkson and James May set out to drive to the North Pole in a modified gas-guzzler, entering the Guiness book of records as the first people to drive to the Pole. Meanwhile the Hampster is going by dog sled. Clarkson and James have to negotiate ice boulders and bears whilst ripping the underside of their Toyota (yet another plug Clarkie). But on the positive side there are no cops or traffic wardens so they can sip gin and T whilst on the move. This version is somewhat longer than that seen on television and is most enjoyable. Then the star for me.........Armed with a thousand bucks a piece, our intrepid heroes venture to the Deep South of the USA where they purchase old US bangers and drive to New Orleans where they intend selling said vehicles. After a series of hilarious adventures they reach their destination. Some reviewers have stated that this episode was cut and had the music changed. Well, I did not notice. It seemed all right to me and I thoroughly enjoyed it. This is a really chuckle-worthy, rib-rattling set and I could watch it over and over again. TOP GEAR AT ITS VERY BEST...................
