Top Gear Series 16 On BBC Knowledge

BY Krado Low

Time to catch Jeremy, Richard, James and the Stig on local television! Some say...

...Top Gear is the first name that will pop into your mind when someone mentions "motoring show". This series features even faster cars, featuring the incredible Pagani Zonda R, one of the loudest objects known to man, and the most powerful road going Ferrari ever, the 599 GTO, the new series is packed full of serious cars and some serious power.

There is also Jeremy racing against time in the new Jag XJ as he tries to beat the sun to land’s end, Richard attempting to beat gravity in a Porsche 911 Turbo S Cabriolet and James taking the Ariel Atom v8, the new more powerful version of the car which tried to rip Jeremy’s face off, around the Top Gear track. All this plus the usual line-up of star guests driving the Reasonably Priced Car.

The new Stig also makes his debut in Top Gear season 16, and the usual line-up of star guests, including Boris Becker, Jonathan Ross and Simon Pegg, in Star in a Reasonably Priced Car. It’s another cracking high-octane series from the world’s biggest car show.

Don’t forget to catch Top Gear when it premieres on Sunday, 7 August 2011 (Singapore 10:00pm), exclusively on BBC Knowledge (StarHub Channel 407)!
