The only two places these 3 guys almost got killed was Argentina and Alabama, and they had no issues going through warzones like Iraq. That says a lot

Argentina, nation that gets angry about losing a surprise war they started, for islands that voted against them, for islands they never even owned xD True big brains

James May, showing up in the coolest car, in the coolest suit, with the coolest sunglasses, and he goes "Hi" like a middle-aged math teacher

“He knows absolutely the square root of jack sh*t about food and cooking” One of my favorite James may quotes.

I feel bad for the guy driving the 2CV through that crowd of psychopaths. that thing is made out of cardboard and duck tape.

7:29 Richards German accent was on point.

James: *falls off horse Richard: *genuine concern Jeremy: I guess we're walking

Can we just appreciate that pretty little Lotus that went 1600 miles on mostly gravel roads or no roads at all and didn’t break down once What a brilliant little car such a shame they had to abandon it along with the other two

If you do not know why they got attacked is for Clarkson's number plate: H982 FKL. On Argentina they referred that plate as the war on 1982 on Falklands Islands who Britain win. The 3 cars got stuck in Argentina, the cars never arrived to Chile. The cars got destroyted in Argentina for order of the government, the police denied to protect the crew and all the team, they only decided to go with them on the trip to leave Argentina. It was a stupid decision of the argentinians to attack them.

Normal people: Jesus of Nazareth Jeremy Clarkson: B'b J'z'z

Imagine being so salty about getting your ass handed in a war, that you have to vent it out on 3 old blokes and their cars

As an Argentinian I apologize on behalf of my country’s people. Some people think that pride is better than anything else. If we kept the islands I guarantee you that they would be just another hideout for our dear president. Love everybody

Imagine getting your knickers in a twist because of a number plate which wasn't custom AND has to be road legal.

All of that because a random number plate reminded them of a war THEY STARTED and lost?

I love it how they thought the Lotus wouldn’t make the trip, it was the only one of the three that never suffered any kind of issue

5:53 GLITCH IN THE MATRIX! Clarkson says "What" in Hammond's voice!

It's unfortunate that the clips do not include Clarkson's praise of the Porsche because he was able to drive one years ago to make it to the hospital to say Goodbye to his father.

Well, i am Argentinian and I always wanted top gear come here. After this really violent events I am so embarrassed about some kind of people here. I'm so sorry that everything ended this way, but remember, we don't are all the same. I want peace, respect and brotherhood for every country in the world.

I honestly thought the riot thing was a joke at the start, but then those 10 minutes were probably the most interesting Top Gear segment EVER

The Argentines started a surprise war and then were surprised when the British sank the Belgrano... Truly the masters of warfare.

LOTUS Lots Of Trouble Usually Serious Jezza at he's best

let me just say that Top Gear crew went to Iraq, and managed to return safely; went to Vietnam carrying a bike that literally smells 'AMERICA' and also managed to return safely. But Argentina? nope.

honestly one of the scariest specials. you could honestly see the fear in the crew in the footage they revealed later.

They weren’t kidding Argentina is the world’s cesspit

3 million cars in Britain and they choose the one Porsche that could start a riot. Top Gear Level luck

The end of this video does just show that some people are just genuine morons.

Ah the Patagonia special. The one where the entire glorious nation of Argentina tried to beat three elderly gentlemen from England, and miserably failed again.

Love how they played "For Your Eyes Only" when May came in with the Esprit. Good nod to the fact that Roger Moore's Bond drove at least 3 Esprits throughout his career.

The way Jeremy says “baby Jesus”.. so funny😂

James May seriously looked petrified on 5:07 I felt that

5:10 Can we just honor the pure car control shown here

1:13 the most perfect "hi" you'll ever hear

8:04 What my dad said when I was born

'The square root of Jack sh**' is comedy gold with James saying it

7:37 How to be angry in the most James May-ish way possible.

"Like i said, Welcome to our little camp" Clarkssons "What?" was just perfect

James May: I'm about to go over the edge, is there anything you want to say to me? Hamster: Can I have your Ferrari? hahahaha

Argentinian angry because they lose in the war they start

They are not perfect car reviewers. It was always about their chemistry, their deep down honest friendship and good humor! That's why they were by far the best car TV Show in the world. Still today, they are the best and we all know it

the 2cv just lurking in the background is the funniest thing in my opinion

Can't get enough from those guys! The Esprit is just gorgeous! Don't destroy the history May

8:16 was one of those moments that didn’t make me laugh before and then one day, when I watched this again, I laughed hysterically for weeks at the way James shouted “and at the end of this, you want me to stay in a TENT!” So, there’s the time stamp when I have a bad day and need a good laugh!

Aww.. James seriously loved that gift 10:00

5:30 "Our colleague then turned up, having bodged the bodge of his bodge." -Jeremy Clarkson

As an Argentine I always wanted top gear to come to Argentina to do a road trip, it is a wonderful country to explore by car. It is sad that everything ended like this. don't hate us, we are not all like these people.

Best moment: „1600 miles.....in a lotus?“😂

9:20 James is a beast taking a slam like that. DAMN!!!

It really sucks that it ended like that. This special had one of my favorite locations with some of my favorite top gear cars (the lotus and the Mach 1). Damn shame it ended like that.

9:20 you can act as mean as you want... this proves Hammond cares for his friend

2:58 - genuine heart feels at Jeremy's nostalgia when he says "where Butch lived." Imagine nine year old Jeremy's fascination with the colorful and murderous mythos of the American West. He probably saw it several years after it came out, when he was a teenager.

The best trio on tv at the time 😂

Why do i feel like old EXOTIC CAR DESIGNS WERE SO FAR AHEAD OF THEIR TIMES. IM IN LOVE WITH LOTUS ESPRIT.

1600 Miles.... in a Lotus best line ever

Star Trek is also banned in Argentina because of its constant reference to "Vulcans". And "Gherkins" are no longer sold in shops as many Argentinians confused them with Gurkhas and were having nightmares about heavily armed cucumbers.

I was in the British army just after the Falklands Conflict. All I'll say is that Buenos Ares and Mendoza are incredible places, and the people I met were wonderful, and so friendly. A stunning country, the drive over the Andes to Chile is incredible - but the highpoint was meeting fabulous people in Argentina.

What an amazing save from James when he opened it up on that wet corner

7:28 Love the accent there 😂

When you Realize that this video is not from 10 years ago...

I love the way jermery was just sitting on top of car as he rolled past

This episode was absolutely brilliant, some of the places where they went to in Chile and Argentina were fantastic.

Argentina: the Alabama of South America..

Cross argentina off the list of places i want to visit. How narrow minded of those people.

Lotus; Lots Of Trouble Usually Serious 😂😂

Jeremy riding on the car to the movie music was one of the most epic Top Gear things ever.

Top gear when i’m alone: 1:25 Top gear when my parents around: 2:09

I love how they are drinking tea at 1:48 and theres yerba mate in the back.

Good old Clarkson never fails to make us smile

For anyone curious, there's another reason why Jeremy has a special place in his heart for the 928. It has to do with the passing of his father. Thanks to a 928, he got to spend one final half hour moment with him before his father left this world.

You cut the best bit of Hammond whispering “He thinks he is Bond” to Jeremy when May turns up in the lotus.

Too bad those savages ruined the Top Gear Special at the end.

no one: Jeremy Clarkson : baby jezzeezus

James May has really taken some shots over the years god.

I miss those guy's!!! They ARE the real Top Gear!!!!

“Hammond! This road you chose is killing my Porsche. I am going to beat you with a bat” *wheese*

Imagine being the one driving the 2CV through the mob 😱

actually cried when he talked about his dad

That lotus is insane. Supposedly the most unreliable car in the bunch and yet never broke down or got stuck a single time. It even beat the Porsche.

At 2:07 hammond’s like “this viagra is rubbish” 🤣🤣

As james arrives in the background plays some bit of 'nobody dies it better' which was the song from a spy who loved me, with the underwater lotus

The way May stepped out of his car is the best thing I've seen all day.

i remember being really excited to see them play car football at the end and then i was so sad when it ended :(

"I mean, if I were 9, it would be tremendous... but I'm not."

Hammond does the best of voice overs

0:54 Jeremy you do know that you have said "i have a mental age of nine" in other top gear episodes 11:31 when you know he actually loved his present

7:26 Richard's accent is on point!!!

Argentians in the comments of Falkland war videos: "We didn't want the Falkland war, it was all started by the authoritarian government. Argentinians are innocent. Argentians in reality: 12:34

928S ..theres something about it that always get to me when i see one ..definitely way ahead of its time too ..

For all the political jokes Top Gear made the one that wasn’t intentional got them in trouble

Argentina started and lost a war over a country they have no claim to, discovered before they even existed. And then get angry about it, great logic

My jaw dropped when Hammond rolled up in a beautiful Mach 1

How could anyone hate Top Gear?

Captain Slow going off on Richard "The Hamster" Hammond is iconic, haha.

Hammond, I need a brief exchange of words with you and there are only two of them there are only seven letters and three of them are “F!” The most eloquent and gentlemanly way of cursing someone out.

"just talk me through it" "Power steering thrown its oil ou..." "I'm not interested" *Cue violent tire screeching*

this episode is legendary. these chaps make me bought a fun rare car instead of a boring nissan march during my new zealand backpacking stay. I will make a movie about that

i love the mustang it looked so good,that lotus is my dream car,and the porsche was so special rip to those 3 legendary cars

Oh yeah that feeling of security when the police should help you really makes me want to spent my holiday in Argentina.

Argentina could've been great but ended up being what its now today. A peasant's village

I love the chemistry of this trio😁

I am Argentine and wanted to apologize in the name of my nation about what happened, but I hate when countries hate on each other. I know we have had some differences in the past, but that doesn’t justify our actions. Our government always try to blame their bad actions to someone else, and that makes a never ending war.
