I was DYING when he asked the guy "Why isn't it called LIVERpool then?" and his response "well ehhhhhhhhhhhhhh" looooooooooooooooooooooool
I think he's from the land of : I don't know.
me, too :-D
I'm not british so I don't know the joke. Yes I'm aware there is a "place" called Liverpool, but ok.... what else?
supercooled
Lol I'm American... Anyway, it's the pronunciation. He asked why it's not called "lie-ver pool" if the building is called the "lie-ver" building, and not the liver building.
IT'S A "LIE!"
For anyone interested the song at 00:46 is called "Sordid" by Amon Tobin.
Peugeot Vs. assassin's creed
trash vs garbage
To be honest I am not a big fan of Parkour BUT respect to these guys. Great job!
It was a superb performance, including routing well for the camera crew. I will add that some calling it parkour and others freerunning is understandable as the lads in question were a parkourist and a free-runner; both styles were on full display. (The wiki on Parkour goes into the variation involved)
I wouldn't trade in my 2001 206 GTi for this...
But still, it's an underrated car.
I get alot of fun out of my 207 Petrol
but can it compete with Parkinson's?? 0:23
This is old but still nice.
just like your mom
Bartacus95 Now why do you have to insult his mom?? What did he or his mom do to you??? Keyboard warriors everywhere!!!!
FELON730 I agree but when I saw the comment i laughed so hard, maybe im an idiot but if I was insulted over the internet I wouldnt give a shit just because a stupid titty boy on the internet has nothing to do with his time.
FELON730
I'm not sure this was an insult.
behemoth666123
It was not an insult to me.
I dont give a fu** ;)
Would suck to lose your house keys doing that Parkour
Capton Slow living up to his name!!!!!!!!!
Can't have a car without an ip-odd connection now can we?
Don't forget your job-job-a oil.
Indeed
Haven't had Peugeot in the US for decades.
Have you had any French car in the US for ages?
TheGard3nGn0me We had Peugeot, Renault (pronounced Ren-ALT' back then), and even Citroen back in the 1960's and early '70's. If there were some others, they were even a smaller market share than these 3 had and I was unaware of them at the time. I don't recall any French cars since the mid 1980's or so, when Chrysler was selling a rebadged Renault sedan which won COTY, but was an awful car, it turned out. (Note: old guy here relying on memory.
TheCookiemonster1822 Because it's a dreary Car with cheap made Interior. Oh wait, it would fit perfectly into the US Market then :P
TheCookiemonster1822 Most Peugeot models were Diesel. We had a 504 made in 1981. It was a great car and was cheaper to drive than gas cars at the time. The government then began to raise the taxes on diesel for environmental reasons and then made the import tarrifs so high for diesel cars that even Mercedes didn't import them anymore. They also did not fit the american aesthetic of the time of large Detroit steel cars, not to mention the old ones were loud and stunk to high heaven.
There is not a slow trickle of diesel cars coming back into the US. There are many who have liked the more efficient diesels they have seen in Europe and want them here but this is being opposed by the US auto and petroleum and ethanol industries. I believe volkswagen and others are gradually starting to build them in their American plants.
The car run on diesel which it does not comply with EPA's rules.
I come from Liverpool and I still remember it looking like that. Even the bridge the free runners went over isn't there any more.
7:12
James: Oh, for Pete sake!
I've just noticed that they ran out of the shopping centre and went back on themselves just to stop by Subway over the road.
Yes, I remember this, very old but see the look of content on the old duck's face at 3:49 =)
Obviously this is not staged. There was really around 100 cameras on the roofs for each cut.
Why is it obvious? A lot of segments on Top Gear are staged.
There was one cam car and one mechanical car. An interesting thing to notice about the Polar Special, was that a lot was actually shot with small handhelds from May and Jezza + cemeras mounted on the cars. See the outtakes. It's one of the least scripted TG's ever.
"Hey we're gonna take this path, so put your cameras there"
It's a TV show, did you think they were going to leave their cameras at home?
that's called editing sir.
@@casscroute8706thanks for letting me know 9 years later
Fantastic
James had a rematch of sorts a couple of series later with some guys on BMX bikes, and he was driving a Fiat that also had a diesel engine. I always wondered why did he give himself that handicap of that engine type where a gasoline engine could have given him the edge he needed to get up to speed?
nice video
SOOF opening tune!
It so old i cant even remember this episode :D
Its new to me :P
l3g3nd1337 2006, this episode is about 8 years ago
Wow this episode is from TEN years ago
Mr. James May sounded abit like Richard Hammond. "COME ON!"
isn't this video like 50 years old now?
Then my car is 50 years now
The guys from Top Gear UK, since they love Le Mans, they should travel to Florida for the Rolex 24 at Daytona. It would be cool.
Assasin's Creed: Top Gear Edition.
so even worse version of top gear but old
this old peugeot 207 costed 10000 euros , or 7000 pounds or 12500 dollars .NOW we have the new peugeot 208 with a GTI serie 200 horses power ! the first price is always 10000 euros .
Parkour is freaking awesome!
cool video
Nice dawg njoooooo
480p? D:
Like the people that don't even know that the parkour free runner guys were jumping over people it's so funny haha like it
Ain't somebody doing some massive showoff on the roof...
Episode?
where is the FISH AND CHIPS car? or the fhismobil?
The logo is cool looking
why the videos are clips
The pug 207 is a lovely car
ey pod hahaha ohhh james
it was obvious that May couldn't win, i mean come on, we are talking about mister slowly xD
This is some old vintage vid
Nice video but the 1.6 S (not the diesel one), the Feline (oldly named Sporty Pack) has the motoring of BMW-Mini :P (I can prove it with my 207 :) )
I have a 1.4 VTI
Uses the BMW mini engine too
Much faster than the diesels
@@BavarianM the only downside is the weight of the car... Really too much for this type
@@melvinmajor Its a bit on the heavy side
But it's very safe tho
I did 180kmh which is its top speed for the 1.4 VTI and have 205/45 17" and the car is solid and very safe
Speed wise I think it's plenty fast already tbh bit heavy yeah but it's well balanced
I prefer 207 phase 2 with the hdi 112 cv
My Brother works at a few Parkour gyms in Utah and has founded a Club, Parkour Utah.
So who won?
If this was a real race the Free-Runners wouldn't have taken the escalators up to the second floor of the Met-Quarter just to jump off it.
Wow is crazy
Anyone know the guitar tune at around 2:15?
Killing Joke - Pandemonium. In case you haven’t found out yet)
fantastic :D
Cool
the 2 guys reminds me of mirrors' edge and assassin's creed
i pod instead of eye pod LOL ( I know you spell it Ipod)
There is a 1.6 THP and i think a 2.0
+1 for the runners
Hmm...so who won??
Was he making fun, or do you guys really say ip-pod?
It was a joke
James May u thought u won...but u didn't
to became assassins you must beat pugeot
Isn't that James May Junior?
this is really cool....but it just seems so set up i can't fully enjoy if it's real or not.
207 is just as worse as it gets, because it's still a 206.
The slowest man in the world...
Mirror's Edge ftw ^^
That's some Assassins Creed shit right there
Parkour
I want to do that
you know you dont see any peugeot comurshels on tv so it must not be a good car
Not an air freshened
Mr . captain slow got slow'd
Why in a moment James had red hair???
HEY it s time to show the new peugeot 208 ! otherwise why jeremy hates so much peugeot ?
silvergirnuz in this case he is a very stupid personn .
2:27
Ofcourse it's a "French Invention"...running away and stuff.
oh yea because they had 50 cameramen... not a real race. clearly. i dont really like the newer seasons...
They told them the route in advance. So they set the cameras up like that...
That way he pronounced iPod lol. epod
You don't want a French car
I want to be a parkour free runner too
Did you become one?
Güzel parkur.
32
Dem parkour jumps doe
they were wearing pants.not trousers
Parkour 1 Cars 0
Hdi engines 2013+ are faster
So staged my eyes bled.
+ just running is just faster than fancy pants parkour.
Well technically, this wasn't parkour. It was free running. Parkour doesn't advocate unnecessary tricks. It's the art of displacement, so no nonsense. Just getting there in the straightest way possible.
Wait, so you watch top gear for the realism? Huh.
Lol no, just addressing a technicality. I am Indian after all! Woohoo, tech support.
yea parkour
Parkour people are weird.
Peugeot

Shitting Peugeot
ə-pod conectah? Speak English.
I would like to say that 207 DOES NOT cost £50,000. Dunno where James gets these figures from.
right this old peugeot 207 costed for the first price 10000 euros , 7000 pounds . may be 12500 or 13000 dollars .
he said £15,000
Those kids knees,ankles,and backs will be killing them in under 10 years,and neither of them will be able to run anymore...
