And I was the first to arrive, and as you'd imagine I've done this properly

I just realised clarkson started laughing at mays engine bay in voice over too 😭

7:22 i always loved how the Stig jerks back and forth as if he's like "OH COME ON WOULD YOU JUST GO"

9:13 you know it's funny when you are still laughing doing the voice over.

This is probably a weird one, but could we get a compilation of richard and james saying the same thing at the same time? I've noticed that they do do it fairly often 😅😂

Jeremy laughing on the narration at what had happened to James engine bay at 9:15.😂

These make me appreciate how on-point their music choices for the background of these bits always were

them laughing as clarksons $1 volvo pulls away for a year, might be one of the most wholesome moments from the boys. just laughing and having fun with your mates like we all have

1:51 - Clarkson: 170 bhp Hammond and May: Yeah but, 170 TONNES of Volvo!!🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

"WHY WON'T YOU REV! CMON,CMON CAAAAAARRRRRR!!!" Gets me every time 😂

Love the way clarkson looks after stig does May's lap

“No no, more than that.” *_928 threatens to run wide_** “MORE THAN THAT!!!!!"*

At this point, we need a compilation of all of the Stig's cousins

"It's not going away" 😂 "It's still there" 😂

“Are you cold?” “NO!” 😂

9:33 I’m so glad you managed to use the original version of this clip. Seeing the door open to The Scorpions is always funny.

1:40 so many moments of contagious laughter on this show, kills me every time😆

12:50 James shivering profusely Jeremy: "Are you cold?" James: "NO!..."

9:15 when jeremy cracks up kills me every time

17:17 Nicely balanced though - turns like an air craft carrier 🤣

If there was like a 10 hour long video of just beginning to end challenges, I'd probably just keep it on repeat forever

I love how Jeremy couldn't finish talking about James engine bay in voice over without laughing 😆

6:55 the foreshadowing of Richard’s comment about a guy going off track after the finish line….

1:40 the thing is it's just not going away 😂😂 9:10 look at what had happened to his shiny engine bay😅

One of my favourite scenes and I know it was choreographed but I really loved it when James won the hill climb in the outback. Well done Stiggy.

22:41 The Best Race Intro Ever!

Oh my giddy aunt 😂 love it when Clarkson says it lol

9:37 remember as a kid being frozen that it was gonna be Schumi behind that door. Was so disappointed 😅😅

Two great things were done by the GTR in Australia back then. 20:44 - this glorious bit of driving from "James May" on the GTR, the episode of which was aired on Feb 1, 2015 (but shooting was definitely done in 2014 though) Then on Feb 8, 2015, the GTR won the 12 Hour Bathurst (which includes immediately overtaking the Audi and Bentley towards the end of the race to claim 1st)

*stig driving for James Jeremy - none of what I am seeing… Richard - makes sense? Jeremy - is possible.

That was funny. Proper laugh out loud. Thank you, needed that.

One hundred and seventy brake horsepower Yeah but one hundred and seventy tonnes of volvo

You're an absolute legend for creating these compilations

The Stig bouncing up and down when he sets off in the 928 is still one of the best bits of that challenge

(Very) early TG challenges were awesome and on a completely different level from their efforts in later seasons. You really get the feeling of watching three guys having fun with each other and throwing around some genuinely ad-libbed lines and jokes. Whereas in later seasons, everything felt much more stilted and scripted and everyone was trying to "act" (and none of them are great actors), playing their assigned roles of JC = loud oaf who always wants MOAR POWER!! - RH = slightly dim, short-tempered country-boy/secret American who takes everything literally - JM = pedantic, absent-minded professor who can only barely drive a car. When you look at their exchanges from that OG cheap car challenge (Audi/Rover/Volvo) you barely get *any* of that.

25:07 "And that just left the fucking Jag!"

A great compilation would be the best times that the three of them were in the same car together. It doesn't happen loads but when it does it's always hilarious

See the Stig at 7:22?

SPEED AND POWER

The music in all these are spot on!

Here we will see the advantage of the optional sport pack 😂

never noticed before that stiggy-ray cyrus might be Sabine

May's reaction to being asked if he's cold hahaga😂😅

This is a particularly good comp!

And across the line!

That first clip is PEAK top gear.

The greatest show of all time.

One of my favourite top gear lines is "see how my alloy glints in the sun"

If I could only show someone one clip from top gear to show them the essence and spirit of the show, it would be from about 7:04-7:55. 10/10 TV.

Is there a compilation, or could you make one, of when they either bump into each other or slam open their doors onto the other’s car?

Glen Campbell was the perfect song for Stig’s lap in the Caddy.

That cheap Porsche challenge will forever remain one of my favourites. Looking back it's incredible to think that 944 was as fast as a 1.6 Suzuki liana

That rover launches surprisingly well

Would be a short one but I'd love a compilation of the "secret" places where they say exactly where they are

Thank you :)

03:21 Still my favourite moment of the entire show. I laugh every time I see it

James little dance when Hammond’s truck lost the time lap 😂

16:40 is so good

I remember "its still there" said about Clarkson Volvo made me CRACK UP as a kid

i miss that trio

19:43 What a beast of a car!

stig driving that GT-R is art.

are you cold? No! (shivers visibly)

The music budget for TG must have exceeded the filming budget

BEST CAR SHOW,--EVER !!!

jeremeys face when he pulls his wedgey out at 12:06 😅😅😅😅😅

James May is pimpin with his caddy.

9:11 hearing Clarkson laugh in voiceover is fucking hilarious

Clarkson pulled a face I have never seen before or since in that Sierra Cosworth and I think he may have a phobia of walls moving forward!

I don't think I have ever enjoyed television more than when May cheated at the quarry in Australia. Don't care how scripted it was or not, it is my favourite TopGear moment across all series, in a show full of outstanding moments.

What season is the first cuts from?

Dude what is that sheet for music you've chosen to accompany the footage with???

Bobby Day! Where did you record these from? Appreciating the great quality and original music😁

For big cars the skylines handle great.

Tiene buena arrancada

The gtr up that mine... jesus ❤

Remember, Lancia was under 1.8 liter engine. Same as Peugeot 205 T16 And Ford Rs200. Those all made over 400 horsepower. Same says over 600

Not all the Stig's cousins were Ben Collins, but German Stig was... Apparently it was the only way the lads could be convinced to ride shotgun was to bring the real Stig in for the job. Ben's podcast appearances have been excellent.

How was the stig getting those cars to move like that, even the volvo?

Mays reaction at 16:45 is priceless.

3:45 3rd gen camaro looks so good😮‍💨

"I must get passed what ever it cost (him)"

I wonder where those old coupes are now. The starion, BMW and Jag.

25:07 did they air these with expletives included? I missed these episodes some how

I do miss when they had legitimately BAD cars (bangers) but they were cheap. It's not the same when James spends the entire journey in a tiny car that cost thousands for example, which can only go 20mph.

1:24 Dam i want to see Ben talk with the trio about the cars.

The 928 V-8 Porsche has always been a beautiful car. Just switch out the crap V-8 with a 540 Merlin big block and 14/71 high helix Blower.

Sierra cosworth = Joy division ❤❤

5:33 The Cadillac does look fabulous. I don't care it's slow. I want one.

Oh look here he is. Hello.

I forgot about the autocross thingy at the end

Stevie Ray Cirus!

I love Jame's Audi in the first test anyone know the model I've seen them before just not sure the model

compilation of the stig driving normal cars

Ese auto amarillo es muy bello

At the end U missed james in the jag pulling into the pits because “the drivers sense of direction broke down” 😂😂😂😂 come to think of it why don’t you do a “James May World Famous sense of direction vid?⭐️

Did the 3 of them ever to the lap in a average car

what for a bmw is it on 12:45 ?

Stiggy Ray Cyrus!!!

12:50 Short exchange, yet still absolutely brilliant.
