He has been watching it most evenings since Christmas and all I can here are laughs coming from the man cave.
Definatley recommend for any car lovers

Top Gear - BBC/Warner Announces DVDs for The Complete Season 13
An extras-filled 3-disc set is racing your way in late September
Posted by David Lambert
7/09/2010
This series sees Richard go to Abu Dhabi to test the new Lambo Murcielago LP640-4 SV; the boys buy three £1,500 rear-drive sports cars and somehow find themselves entered in a terrifying French ice race. Elsewhere, Jeremy and James attempt to understand what makes a great Volkswagen advert -and then try to film some of their own. Rather predictably, it doesn't go well. And in a television-first, the mysterious Stig takes off his helmet to reveal just who he really is...
Celebrities taking a turn in the 'Stars in the Reasonably Priced Car' include Olympic Gold Medal winning Usain Bolt, Sienna Miller (Alfie, Layer Cake) who has just passed her driving test; and Jay Leno - in Jeremy's own words -'the biggest petrolhead in the world'.
The BBC and distributor Warner Home Video have announced a September 28th release of Top Gear - The Complete Season 13 on DVD in North America. This 3-disc set runs 406 minutes. Besides the 7 featured episodes (which are subtitled), you'll also get the following extras:
* Stig POV
* Spitfire Magic
* Ken Block: Slow Motion
* Extended Brian Johnson Interview
* Extended Jenson Button Interview
* Lamborghini Murcielago LP670-4-SV 200 mph Run in Abu Dhabi
* Train Race Sequence with JC

Another Gearhead pleaser

If you like cars, and have any sense of humor, this show is a must. I only wish more were available. The BBC is missing the boat by not offering more of this series to American audiences.

Top Gear: funnier than any other "car" show EVER!

We discovered the BBC show Top Gear during a recent cruise to Europe on our cabin TV. There was no better way to pass the transatlantic seasick time than watching the fabulous banter of these 3 witty hosts. I was reminded of the simplistic joy of childhood pranks and the sheer excitement of a fast car. I loved their clips of a "celebrity in a well-priced car" stints and their realistic reviews of cars I can only dream of owning and driving some day. My husband, 12 year old daughter and I all quote the show regularly and can't wait to order other seasons on dvd, too!

UK Season 13 Episode 7 - Excellent End Of Season Show
Dec 16 2011
By Daniel G. Lebryk
- Published on Amazon.com
One of the funnier episodes. The last episode for season 13.
The show opens with Richard talking about all the boring businessman cars, bland and the same. So he chooses an Australian Vauxhall VXR-8 Bathurst supercharged car. It makes the wildest strangest noises ever. As Hammond says, this car goes to 11. He then backs it up with another Australian car, The Maloo R8, a sort of El Camino. But it is blindingly fast. The Stig drives both cars.
They break away to do the news. Lots of Ferrari news as usual.
The big segment is James and Jeremy making a commercial for Volkswagen. On a serious side, it's not too far off from the corporate world with how executives decide what will and will not see the light of day. This was a great challenge to leave out Hammond. May and Clarkson are such polar opposites, it makes for a very funny segment.
They go back to the car board - something that is gratefully removed in later seasons. In the end, this should just be called the Jeremy board; he puts the cars where ever he wants. There is an excellent joke with Hammond about his height. Be sure to watch through to the end of this segment.
The star in a reasonably priced car, this week is Jay Leno. Now I kind of dislike Jay Leno, but he is excellent on this show. The interview is outstanding. Jay has 150 cars, and Jeremy is mostly speechless.
The closing segment is of Jeremy driving an Aston Martin Vantage with a V12 all over beautiful hilly countryside. There's ethereal music that makes me think of having a massage. Probably one of the most beautiful segments they have ever aired.
Oddly, there's no awards part of the show this year.
Nov. 11, 2012 Update: This series of reviews was published when Amazon allowed each episode to be reviewed individually. They are now lumped into a single product listing. I have added the Episode Number to the title.
