At the seventh breakdown knowing that he bother losing 5 more points for opening the hood had completed the trip by calling a AAA truck and reached his destination with his car on it.

And at his formal audition he started telling stories about his past as a DJ on agricultural radio selling lambs on the air and had everybody in stitches over his self-deprecating humor.

I’m guessing that Clarkson would’ve known it was a pup when he first powered it up and bought it anyway to prove the point that a ten grand supercar was a really bad idea.

My absolute favorite episodes of Top Gear are when the lads are each given a price limit and a car description to match, and we see what each of them comes up with.

By far my favorite of all the budget car challenges, next to the British Leyland challenge. The boys each have absolutely STUNNING machines (albeit with glaring technical problems), and a great road trip with a ton of laughs. Jeremy's Merak's engine *literally* disintegrating, James' Urraco constantly losing power, all while Richard's Dino keeps chugging along with little to no problems until it just couldn’t keep going. This one is just great fun.

Fun fact, for the KZread upload many of the music tracks playing in the background have been changed. In the beginning of this clip "Little Green Bag" remains untouched, but later on more songs are replaced. When the show first aired aswell as in consecutive re-runs the song that could be heard when Jeremy first rolls up in his Maserati is "Rumble" by Link Wray. In this KZread edition the song changed to a royaltee free tune that only resembles the original. Same is true for the song that accompanies May's first appearance in this scene the original version played "Smoke on the water" by Deep Purple, also replaced by another instrumental.

Who else is here because the Merak was just added to Gran Turismo 7?

"I can't believe someone's put a Ferarri badge on that, when it isn't one." Much like the Top Gear name being used by Fred and Paddy's Road to Nowhere.

Or Jeremy's SS badge

"It's from ASDA. You've got a George Car!"

"Snarling past people at 30mph in a car that can top 160. Daft? Yes, of course. But surely only as daft as buying a four-seater and then spending 90% of the time all on your own in it." - Jeremy Clarkson

Absolutely classic Top Gear. Unscripted, genuine, hilarious.. ”James has bought an AA truck!”.

To be fair, James's "trained eye" was correct in saying that Jeremy's car was garbage

But his eye still got him a car that constantly drained electric, either he just didn't care or his eye for that type of thing isn't too good

@@ghillepig2 It depends on whether he knew about the faulty alternator at the time of purchase. An electrical fault like that is not something you can diagnose just by looking at the car.

I love how cars brings people together.

I just love the "Is that the best you two can come up with?" while is he stepping out of the lorry. :D

"Battery is discharging the oil pressure is very low the engine temperature is off the end scales but the clock is correct!" Well doesn't matter because when you're driving that you know you won't be on time anyway.

I remember seeing this on TV when it was first aired, I laughed so hard when James turned up on the back of an AA truck!

This is one of my favorites. Hilarious, great acting, great cars, great music.

2:50 James look royally pissed off.

5:14 that sound of the Maserati sounds amazing.

"There's a subframe that holds the engine in and the wheels on. It's made of rust." Doesn't exactly fill one with confidence.

Hammond when talking about the sub frame- '.....it's just made of rust' 😂😂 proper made me laugh

2:35 JAMES HAS BOUGHT HIMSELF AN AA TRUCK! ROFL! 😃😃😃😂😂😂🤣🤣🤣

Budgetcars that day, today the Ferrari 308 gt 4 starts at = 45.000€ the Maserati Merak begins at = 67.000€ and for the Lamborghini Urraco you have to pay = 55.000€ or more

No, it's dino. Crazy thing, italian spelling is different from english, imagine that. The letter Y isn't even part of the alphabet there. Madness.

I'm also Dino, although I'm neither Italian nor wet, I am relatively slow :D

I would like to make a vote that this is the best cheap car challenge ever done by Top Gear

this makes me feel so old, all these cars are relatively valuable collectibles now

they were so young !

I´ve seen this a few times before but it cracks me up every time when hammond says, "yes James had ran out of electricity... again" hahah

What was the music budget ? They used all of it in this show alone!

This was back when Dino's were considered a joke, but they're worth a fortune now. The 1960s ones are selling for half a mill, and 1980s 308s (the Hammond model) can go for £100k+. I bet Hammond's would sell for £50k today

Probably my favorite challenge yet. Anything with "Supercar" and "Budget" in the same sentence sounds like something to be affraid of, but it also gives me the sense that one day I could own a car with a wicked badge without breaking bank.

2020 Ferrari 308 Dini up to 80.000 Maserati Merak up to 60.000 Lamborghini Urraco up to 80.000

James' trained eye was right though

It's 2022 and this is still Top Gear at its best ...
