- Jeremy straps himself in to the BAC Mono and feels the wind tear his face off! Like the Ariel Atom the BAC Mono has no windshield, but what it lacks in glass it makes up for in speed!

Jeremy has a certain way of describing things that is unlike any other host.
It would be because he uses the best metaphors in the English language to describe something he feels. And he is spot on.
Like using women and the vibration of the car 😂😂
I'd love to hear him describe my penis.
Norman D “it’s so small I can’t even see it”
@@theantsaretakingover Those are the words of a simpleton.
"If I were a girl I'd like it VERY much!" - Classic Jeremy
KayWalkZ I cried laughing at this. Lmao
“Even cross eyed women can drive it legally”
Ean Smith 🤣 can’t say shit like that these days without getting crucified
KayWalkZ he is so unique I can imagine how he would say that
@@fluppy4202 you don’t have to imagine, just watch the video and you’ll hear him say it.
It's not the G-Force that does that to your face, it's the wind...
+Shane Fell It's both, although wind has stronger and constant impact, while g-force works only during accelerating
+Blindeaf But he would have to reach the g-forces of a stuntplane to have that kind of effect.
+freddo 1614 No, g-force is acceleration. 1g is about 9.8m/s/s. In reality, g-force is a unit based on the gravity, but is not gravity specifically and can be used to quantify any acceleration vector.
+Shane Fell no its the fact his teeth are more yellow then cheap as butter and are rotten to the point they should just be pulled and replaced with false teeth.
+shawnkiller90 He's a multy millionaire...Don't think he cares. We don't care we're here for Clarkson
The camera crew and directors outdid themselves in this review. One of the best reviews Clarkson has ever made.
Only the British can make great track day and small sports cars
If it is the closest you can get to driving an F1 as a regular average human. Maybe that cost is alright.
The Lotus T125 is the closest u can get to F1
This is 105k Pounds vs the 1 mil pounds price of the t125 which basically remained a prototype. So yeah I guess the cost of this car was and still is worth it.
Rohan Tej a r i e l a t o m
@@bojunchoi6354 the Atom is a two seater, EXTREMELY far from F1.
@@13lok1 Which is barely more achievable to the regular average human than F1 and that isn't road legal. The Mono is road legal and costs far less than your average starter home. Life choices and limited production are the only real obstacles to mass ownership in the UK.
I still think they should make one with a jet fighter style windscreen/roof. A curved one, going from the headrest to just after the steering wheel.
+appelpower1 i was just thinking the exact same thing
Sentient-being named Bob Glad I'm not the only one :D
+appelpower1 I'd like it the way it is...that's what sets this and the Ariel Atom apart from the rest...
praveen titus Fair enough, but it'd be nice if they made one with said windscreen/roof.
+appelpower1 bubble canopy!
2:20 😂😂😂 the way he describes things is beyond our imagination
1:43 is the best transition ever. The change in color grading is sublime. Cops to the underrated talent of Top Gear editing crew👏👏👏👏
Watch that murcielago vs mustang drift battle and youd see s bomb transition
@@Glibzerwhat's the title of that video?
Top gear (latest Clarkson era, anyways) always had a very unique look/color grading/picture quality to it, plus the British weather making it nearly always overcast.
Still to this day, he makes me love any car. He speaks with softness and he makes it feel like it coming from his heart. I miss the show so much.
Who else needed to watch this again after Doug Demuro's vid?
Guilty of that myself
But of course...
Seen it many times but this is the 1st time I've seen it suggested
Yep, just finished watching Doug...
A man of culture as well😏
0:50 Prodigy - "First Warning". Just for anyone wondering the song.
Jeremy's presentation never fails to amaze me. Simply brilliant...the Mono of course
Yep, I love British engineering and British track day cars are amazing and incredibly fun!!!!
I love Noble, Caterham, Lotus, TVR, BAC Monos!!!!
"If I was a girl i'd like it very much"
Jeremy Clarkson, 2014.
It looks amazing in a very Star Wars manner.
@@J.PC.Designs are we talking about the same car? It looks like something a storm trooper would drive.
@@J.PC.Designs I see Star Wars in it.
TraustiGeir Tbh it looks like an actual Stormtrooper - the equipment is usually different. I guess if you’re referring to the Sequels stormtroopers you have a point
@@ImmortanDan That's my thinking.
@@J.PC.Designs
Stop trying to deny it, it does.
Top gear's editing is phenomenal!
it's what u get when u have nearly unlimited budget
Michael Pan You see, this is why you don't hold Amazon's beer for them.
Best!
Bit their budget is massive
it wasn't g-force that did that to his face, it was the air...
*wind
MrMasonx742 nay, wind is air in motion, the air was motionless, Jeremy was the one in motion here.
***** No, if he went 120 mph in any car and stick his head out of the window the result would be the same.
***** Ummm ... well he was accelerating so there was some g-force exerted.
Came here to say the same thing
I've watched the ending probably 50x. This is vintage top gear, love the evening shots, but the beautiful music coupled with Jeremy's dialogue, only doing how Clarkson good. Damn these were some good episodes! Just beautiful.
1:33 tells the whole story.
Some say that the only other car to do this was the Ariel Atom... and that in a previous life, he was a dog that spent most of his time in the back of a pickup truck.
All we know is, it's a suspiciously white helmet with a different visor, and his face isn't where he left it.
"It's SO quick, it can destroy your entire face..."
Top Gear's production team reminds us why they're the best. Great video. I wasn't expecting the car to be that expensive, though.
Time to offer it as a good old fashion English Kit Car?
Lmao "even cross eyed women could drive this on the road"!!! I love him!!!
I died bruh that had me rollin
3:22 that music is simply astonishing
Dat music in background tho *NFS undercover intensifes*
Whoever programs Top Gear's music has amazing taste
nfs undercover music on the background
first thing I noticed. brings back memories of taking something like the CCX along the freeway
:)
dandrixxx I actually think it was crap to be honest, it was the last need for speed I bought till NFS 2015. I used to play midnight club LA instead, really liked that one. That being said, as shit as it was, all that came later where even worse due to black box leaving ea. ghost is making a good job trying to save the franchise since 2015
old Prodigy
arturoicetre what's the song?
M83 music at the beginning is always precious
The Prodigy - First Warning. LOVE IT
This design is still futuristic in 2023, it would absolutely have a place in this era's motor shows still
Oh my! IT'S THE MUSIC FROM NEED FOR SPEED UNDERCOVER! Oh my! That's awesome! c:
@ 5:00 "The first time i drove a Mono it set fire to itself, the second time the engine went wrong and the third time it broke down before it even had left the factory. ...so its another typical British badly executed good idea..."
It's a bit like the Danish Zenvo.
I got that as we'll but mine exploded so I was in hospital we'll not me I mean my dad :)
I might actually start commenting on the oldest comments I can find! 😂....
I really like how you can see all the suspension, looks really cool
Personally I rather buy one of these over a Ferrari and a Lamborghini and others too. This thing just looks so much fun to drive!
looks ten times better than a lambo and 5 times better than a rari.
Hell yeah this one looks timeless like an old F1 car
And it's British. Probably the best country...
..
..
..
In the world.
0:20
The prodigy: First Warning.
Yer welcome.
Always love the video capture and soundtrack that they put in the show, makes even the Peugeot sexy haha
"But you want one, because.....it's such a lovely thing". Beautiful, brought a man tear to my eye. Can say that about a lot of things I have bought over the years and can totally understand and feel that statement.
Probably one of the best conclusion I've ever seen.
music at 0:33 is from need for speed undercover :D
It's a work of art.
I want to salute the person/ppl who produced this video. It's one of my all time favorites and I love watching it every now and then when I wanna treat myself to something really special
Thumbs up for no commercial. Thank you.
I know some one who said their boyfriend gave them mono. What a great gift.
It's the wind, not the G-force that's making Jeremy look like that :p
it's both, really :p
***** Only if he's accelerating much faster at 90mph than he was at 70mph, which is unlikely
Just when you thought it couldn't get any worse
I love the passion they have all things with 4 wheels.
One of my all time dream cars!!!
Katerham, BAC and Ariel are proof we Brits know how to make fast stuff!!
ThEcRaZ3dGaM3R catherham... Donkervoort does it better
ThEcRaZ3dGaM3R mclaren and noble?
Correction "quick" not fast
Erm I think you'll find its the wind doing that to his face not the g forces.... if it was g force it'd do that even in a closed roof car.
Yes, but "Jeremy's Face Vs G-Force" sounds better than "Jeremy's face Vs a lack of windscreen".
So lets partake in the age old American tradition of blatantly bullshitting and just lying to make things sound better.
jaidonnn
What a heap of shit
Sir Digby Chicken Caesar well we learned it from those greasy brits
I love the choice of music.. Prodigy - First Warning 😩👌
0:55 wheb i heard that i was like, this song sounds familiar, and then i realized, hey, this is from NFS Undercover, i knew it was by The Prodigy but i forgot the name
First Warning is the name of the song.
Start listening from 2:10 and onward. I loled so hard when he said "If I was a girl..." bit. XD
This car sounds so great.
This video made me make the decision what car to buy, I recently won a lot of money, and couldnt choose between a track car or a street car, but now I do, thanks TG!
God !!!
I love these old topgear videos ...
1:39 George Russell after driving a W11 in Sakhir
He will do it again in 2022, it's official.
1:38 Jermimy inhale the exaust foomes agian the sodding tic tac
The cinematography is amazing
the last scene is phenomenal
I saw the guys on Throttle House do a review on this machine lately. I immediately realise how much I missed Jeremy’s Top Gear. They were one of a kind, uniquely British, and damn great at what they do. Nobody does motor journalism like the trio did, nobody.
This car is for very selfish people! lol cool.
it's for people who want have fun on the track
Porsche Carrera yes i know, but its selfish cause its only ONE seat.. lol
cchujnickSpam i figure, but still!
GodBlessHipHop.com drivers be like "see ya beetch!
PancakePredator lol
Simply brilliant. Another example of superlative British engineering showing the establishment how to deliver a fantastic track day / twisty road car. Well done and thanks Briggs Automotive Company! We all dream of owning one here!
Exciting is indeed the only word to describe the shape of this car. Beautiful piece of technology
Sick car :D
One of the best in GRID 2 :P
Would make for an interesting commuter
I saw one in real life. Can agree that it is an absolutely stunning creation!
Absolutely beautiful!!
"At 70 mph your face starts to move about... at 80 it starts to come off." Lol
I love how he compared it to an Ipad hahaha
2:18 is the exact moment my dad stopped letting me watch this show when I was younger
The last thing called BAC that went as quick and was as manoeuvrable, was the BAC Lightning F. Mk1.
I should have added, remember the Ford GT90 "New Edge" concept car? This reminded me of that instantly.
I'd love to have one of these as a daily driver.
For the cost of a second hand Ferrari, you could get one for each member of the family.
@@KenFullman What family?
@@petroscephas You live alone? :O Sorry :(
@@KenFullman Sorry for what?
@@KenFullman 🤣
"Broke down before it left the factory" that gets me everytime.
من اجمل البرامج على الاطلاق ممتع وشيق وانا دائما من المتابعين شكرا لتوب جير thank you
I think a fighter jet like canopy on that would have been an excellent choice for all weather protection!
I was thinking the same . That would make this even more awesome
I believe this car doesn't have AC, so that would be disaster. Or if you add AC it gonna effect the weight & power
"It is so fast, it can destroy your entire face."
Watching this is fun.
Watching this in twice the speed [in the menu under the video] is twice as fun.
That's my favorite car on the weekends!
In FH4!
This is on my list of cars I want to own when I win the lottery. It's above a lot of supercars and hyper cars.
Instead of aiming to win the lottery why don't you earn a degree or get a good job and save up since the odd of winning the lottery are super slim
+caleb cliff Why don't stop whining and taking things so seriously. It's just a comment.
And BTW, money, material possessions and a "good job" aren't the be all and and end all of life. That's why I got a degree in Neuroscience and Cybernetics.
Clearly, your life is severely lacking if you felt the need to post a comment like that.
+caleb cliff The odds of getting a job that would pay for a 102000 pound toy are very small aswell. A good degree won't get you there.
+JSavic He's a footballer.... you dont need a degree to kick a ball. Just a whole lot of talent and determination
+JSavic www.jamesedition.com/cars/bac/mono/2013-1st-one-in-the-usa-california-titled-for-sale-1065693
You can get one from the owner of BAC here in America, slightly used from 2013. $ 250,000... street legal and titled.
" ... because, ¡¡my bladder's gone... it's completely GONE..!! ¡¡I wet myself..!!"
" ... ¡at high roads, everything starts to tingle and vibrate... I'm not gonna go into too many details but let me put it this way... if I were a girl I'd like it VERY MUCH..!"
¡LOL! Love Jeremy.
U hv sexy eyes to bad u a Muslim and can't show your face
u spanish?
Nice video as usual Scotty...
You don't need one. But you need one because it is such a lovely thing. Well told
1:34 Doug DeMuro 5 Years later trying to copy Jeremy Clarkson
what's the song/track at 0:22? i know its not Darude-sandstorm. please
Prodigy- first warning
Oh my God ! You review too many good cars...This is amazing!! :-))
a work of art
What is the first song? as soon as the video starts. I can't remember
M83 - let men burn stars. it's the same song at the end of the video as well.
This isn't G force. It's air resistance.
The fact that 6'5'' (8-9 inches taller than the average height) fits in the Mono is absolutely amazing.
0:22, this song is from a game I used to play on my ps2. "nfs undercover"
Can someone tell me the song at the end? Its beautiful.

OblivionGaming IKR
RIP BBC Jeremy :(
Does the BAC Mono come out with right hand drive steering as well
It looks brilliant
Came from Daddy Doug's video, im rolling on the floor laughing
Oh hi
Hang on?
So a car that sets itself on fire is OK as long as it's British.
But if it sets itself on fire and is foreign it's a piece of crap?
Slick, old Clark'. Very slick.
I was about to comment that... glad I'm not only one that thinks the same. :D
Sadly Jeremy thinks that way and he always says British too, becomes annoying after 200 times
blackness010
Yes, i agree, if it isn't that, its about the WW2, and it, for me, comes like old fart. I still do love the show, but the reviews i don't take them seriously anymore, for that there are the DRIVE, Autocar, Auto-express and EVO channels on youtube, among many others.
Unless it's an Alfa Romeo, Then their not allowed to hate it.
However, the BAC Mono is only 95,000£ and actually a good car while the Zenvo ST1 costs 660000£ and is a joke.
Just awsum! thanks guys!
Still my favorite go to the Atom
2:24 XD
Still, better than Top Gear USA?
herpes is better than Top Gear USA
Bayocand Getting castrated is better than top gear USA.
I hate Top Gear USA and im American! Give me May, Clarkson, and Hammond any day. I love the way Clarkson describes cars.
That nfs undercover song in the beginning 😍
This is why top gear is my favorite show ever awesome vid :)
