For those wondering, the surprise of the year went to a Jaguar XJ6 for being very pleasant despite being a "cheap" base model. You can watch the section if you look up another video of the 2003 awards, though that one doesn't have the final segment.
Even a year into the show, the three had more chemistry than the new top gear blokes will ever have. They should sack the two randoms and let chris harris do it solo.
James May wasn't even in the first series. Though James and Jeremy were both part of old Top Gear. Hammond and May on the other hand only just started working together in series 2.
Chris Harris is the only reason I watch top gear at this point. If he was still on RUclips I’d watch him there. Flintoff and mcguinnis whilst good guys are not car guys and don’t belong on top gear. I agree. Give Chris the job solo and stop trying to make it what it was because it’ll never work.
@@jameswallace7091 freddie and paddy are there for the banter and comedy and you have Chris for the car stuff, thr new top gear is fully based on the banter more then the cars as that's what made top gear famous
I miss Matt LeBlanc. While he wasn't quite as good as these three, he didn't exactly have decent cohosts to work with, and he's both incredibly into cars and surprisingly into dry British wit despite being American.
Man .....from the lot I'm over surprised how well that Clio v6 has aged...still looks fresh and it would have been such a great investment, who could tell?!
@@user-bc6yz1jk6c but they are ugly are they not, German sports cars are overpriced in general, down here in Australia I can buy a 5 year old ford falcon xr8 with a supercharged 5.0 v8 and buy the factory backed holy grail for 470 kw and 730 nm torque and upgrades suspension and tires to handle that immense power for just under 90,000 aud, or buy an Fpv f6 310, another falcon with a turbo six which blows modern similarly priced bmws out of the water with mid range acceleration, 600 nm torque from 1950 rpm to 6000 rpm, German cars are overrated get over it, and because of the build quality in those cars engines (I must say the interiors are shit bit oh well) they last twice as long too
1:22 James accidentally starts playing an Austrian song (gott erhalte Franz den Kaiser) and not the Deutschlandlied. One of the most wholesome moments of Top Gear in my book
For anyone wondering: at 8:43 the song is a Pixies cover of 'Cecilia Ann' originally written by The Surftones. It was the first track on Pixies 'Bossanova' album which was released in 1990.
Oh the number of the audience during the show/series, compared to series 9 until 22 when people were racing to be in the audience even many people from other countries were in the audience as well.
i reckon i could count the amount of VX220s i've seen with one hand, however every other car show has the Noble M12. sometimes not necessarily on display but just so happens to be in a nearby car park.
to think that the cars they are talking about went out of production and slowly disspeared from the roads, but this is still wtchable 20 years later. Anyone has the first 6 seasons of top gear with the trio please contact me.

I like how they made an entire award just to roast the Chief Constable of North Wales
We all loved it as petrol heads! Fuck that guy, never seen such an angry man over absolutely nothing.
Then there was Ken Livingstone
That’s why these 3 were great. The new guys would never do anything like that
@Vidata Lol, today is all about political correctness. Don't expect to see such thing like that anymore.
@@farishanafiah8461 you can't forget they spent the first series calling things gay
Fun fact, we're closer to the year 2038 than we are to when this was aired.
Not very fun :( Wish I had a time machine
Aight imma kill myself rn
Bruh bruh!
one that always gets me is that we're closer to the forthcoming 60's than the last ones. sorry everyone. have a nice day.
I... Don't get it.
James May playing the piano was so good

Your a legend
Thank you
@@blaster915 his what is a legend?
Ohh so that’s why it looks so cut out
To think when this was aired you could've bought a Clio V6 for £27k, put 20,000+ miles on it, and now sell it for a profit.
Same for that Honda Nsx 🤑
Quite astounding
That's assuming that 27k is worth that now, with inflation 27 is closer to 36k
55 grand a yellow ones just sold for on ebay wtf
It's 2003, kimi and coulthard was still teammate. Damn.
Its crazy that hes still driving in F1 today
And Kimi was 24. He looks 11
You can actually hear the Stig laugh at 11:27 when Simon applauds him.
This is the most iconic ending theme I have ever heard
Haha! Making an entire episode with just 47p. And probably one of the best episodes of the bunch. That's talent.
6:44 Even M.Night Shyamalan cant pull off a twist that effective. Kudos to James
3:08 I've never heard the crowd react so negatively
Pure disgust lmao
The complete watchable version!!! Finally 🙌🏼
I cut out one segment that I had already posted ruclips.net/video/d-6nT7mH9AI/видео.html
GOAT channel tbh
Agreed it’s literally my childhood in RUclips channel form.
Hell Toreer 2, incT, Nonzah Gaming, and Van Inhalin.
The holy quadruplet of TG repository channels.
@@helios.axitro niks v does quite enjoyable compilations and you may be able to get him to make you one if your comment gets enough traction
James May and his keyboard just cracks me up!

@@THENAMEISQUICKMAN i never liked rory im glad hes gone
Man .....from the lot I'm over surprised how well that Clio v6 has aged...still looks fresh and it would have been such a great investment, who could tell?!
2021 and BMW is right where it was back then! 🤪
Or everybodys still some whiny cunts about a brand of car theyll never buy anyway, id say its a mix of both
People like you who can't afford one are the only haters
looks like youve officially rustled the bmw fanboys hahaha

@@user-bc6yz1jk6c for reference a bmw m5 is 200,000 aud, 110,000 more for less speed, worse looks, worse reliability and a better interior
If only they could comment on the state of BMW design today...
Who would like to see Jeremy, Richard and May take a lap in the reasonably priced car?
This takes me way back. Thank you for uploading
This channel is amazing... I always look forward to the next upload
warning: show budget does not exceed ¥23
Cock!
About 15p
ery noice
The fact that may played the ending made me laugh hard af
Best source for classic top gear, keep it up👍
Excellent outro by James
Big thanks for leaving in James‘ excellent keyboard solo at the end! Wouldn’t be complete without it! ^^
1:22 James accidentally starts playing an Austrian song (gott erhalte Franz den Kaiser) and not the Deutschlandlied. One of the most wholesome moments of Top Gear in my book
13:22 such a tune.
if dacia sandero was out james would've given all the awards to it.
not being that good in english i was searching google images of a "2003 BMW range" not realizing he means all of the BMW's
The crowd gasping when the Mercedes picture came up lol.
This reminded me how much the Vauxhall VX220 is still a guilty pleasure car for me.
I absolutely love the ending theme of top gear 2003 awards
It's big, its british, its also german... ITS THE QUEEN, BRING HER OUT
She certainly being wheeled about this week...2nd week September 2022
3:25 certainly the case today with BMW’s beaver grilles!
For anyone wondering: at 8:43 the song is a Pixies cover of 'Cecilia Ann' originally written by The Surftones. It was the first track on Pixies 'Bossanova' album which was released in 1990.
Top Gear awards....were going to be an annual thing.
Holly 2003 year! 😍😍😍
I graduated my school that year))
Good times 😊👍
This guy needs more subscribers...
Thanx for the good mood)
Oh the number of the audience during the show/series, compared to series 9 until 22 when people were racing to be in the audience even many people from other countries were in the audience as well.
2003 and was the best year in human history
I’m a newfound fan of this and these 3 are perfect as Hosts
James may is a man of many talents
killing it on the keyboard
Top Gear when Richard Hammond looked like he was 12 years old. Good times.
Nice to see Kimi never changed
i reckon i could count the amount of VX220s i've seen with one hand, however every other car show has the Noble M12. sometimes not necessarily on display but just so happens to be in a nearby car park.
Love it
No way they chose a Garbage Motors powered Vauxhall over the mid-engine Renault....
what was May's "something even more surprising"?
Jaguar XJ6
I wonder how fast that Noble went around the track. Maybe 1 25?
3:25 Jeremy saw it coming 20 years in advance
This is moment top gear got more funding ! Great show not costing a lot to make and its entertaining
I really wanted the XC90 to win tho
If only they had seen the 2022 range of BMW
ahahahaha the DC slander 😂😂😂
May fkin it up on the keyboard was kinda sweet
Watching this makes me feel very old. The thought that 2070 is closer than 1970 even more. Everbody knows that 1970 was 30 years ago....
Where did you find this?
The Mercedes Vaneo look like a mini hearse that was a A class. 😂🤣 🚬
Ngl james' outro was kinda sick
So now i know where all the memes with james may's piano come. Fabulous
This England is dead and gone
9:10 is he the ice cream man in that Skrillex song
to think that the cars they are talking about went out of production and slowly disspeared from the roads, but this is still wtchable 20 years later. Anyone has the first 6 seasons of top gear with the trio please contact me.
Lmao James playing music
oh crap i'm almost as old now as they were here. seeing them now i don't want to go 20 years in the future. stop the time!
Aaww may at the end, I wanna do that on keyboard now
who the hell dislikes an old top gear video
ohoh they cut out the surprise of the year 8.08
ruclips.net/video/d-6nT7mH9AI/видео.html
BNW range …. they have a tradition 😅😅😅
Kimi da goat
How old were they?!
That Rolls Royce is still the boss
NSX in the background!
Great channel… I’ve turned on notifications and subscribed but I never get anything? And it’s not in my sub section :(
Same
Year I was born
fun fact, i'm 19 yrs old and i was born the year this aired
did the stig really say "thank you" to simon for clapping?
Do not besmerch our lord and saviour Kimi Raikkonen. For that. BWOAH
what episode?
What is it with James May collection of tan coloured leather foot wear?
Something cheap done well 😃!
I want the RX8 review!!!!😭😭😭
Just look it up on youtube. Should be there.
I love that review. Classic Jeremy
How is this 20 years old
Kimi has since became a legend for his speeches
13:17 - what you are all here for
Kimi looks young
Mr. Bean's Cousin I presume.. you know who I meant...!!!
This episode is grown up
8:27 what happened?
Ironic how they mocked kimi then and now he's universally idolised as the ice man
5:34 am I actually seeing a Vauxhall and not an elise
Jeremy knew years ago the hideous design of the BMWs
Mazda RX-8 "practical", goes like any car with 2.0 turbocharged i4, good value with 50-100k km lifespan before it's not worth servicing.
People be acting like 2003 is the 80s 😂😂😂 it’s not that long ago geez
This is Top Gear!!!! Everything else is just bad copy!!!! Miss these guys!!
So pretty much people have been bitching about new bmws since the beginning of time
They predicted BMW
The bigger the crowds got the worse Top Gear became.
