I found the process of it getting there very boring and fast forwarded, but when it took off I was genuinely in awe.

Wonder how much licence payers' money it cost... Not complaining, better than most of the toss they have on the BBC, just wondering though.

I like Maxi Test on Motors TV. Proper car reviews without the BS.

Rocket was fantastic

Although the Brabus was a complete croc of shite it was still good to see it tested just to find out that it was the case - obviously I've never been in the position to spend 160k on a car but I'm sure I'd be absolutely gutted if I bought that and then found out it was a complete lemon, so thank goodness for Top Gear

I couldn't believe they really did the rocket. Right up to the end I was thinking it was all a joke and they'd admit there's no way they could afford to actually do it.
