Just finished reading an article from last year that featured on Auto Trader. It was carried out by an independent market analyst and concluded that the Peugeot 207 was the most reliable USED car on the market, with just 6% breaking down in the 1st year, and still the most reliable over 5yrs. If you get the diesel 1.4, it's £30 per year to tax, insurance group C and gives you 64-73mpg depending on the kind of driving. It's the perfect first car for many, many reasons...and yeah, I drive one. :)

Being from Liverpool, these routes make no sense xD He started in the city center, not on the edges and it wouldn't be a 6-mile drive but rather a 6 minute one, im pretty sure at some points he was driving directly away from the liver buildings (apparently he didnt know which way he was going), also the freerunners were just going back and forth around the town and not even getting closee to the buildings. but top gear is bants and not to be taken seriously soo idc

randomly came across the vid while looking at 207 faults. They did the same thing in Sheffield with the Reliant Robin. Alot of random roads leading nowhere near to Rotherham. In fact, I'm sure the film started closer to Rotherham, than the majority of the footage!

@toshley6192 7 жыл бұрын

Pretty much everything on Top Gear is highly edited, but filmed in a way that makes it seem as though it's spontaneous and continuous. In the Parkour vs. Motorcyle race, they make it seem as though the racers have never been in the building and have to make up their path as they go (running in to locked doors and having to backtrack), but you can see tire tracks on the floor from the practise runs the motorcycle did. Pretty much every sequence on the show like this is filmed shot-by-shot, multiple times and then edited to look as though it was filmed in one take. Ever wonder how they always seem to arrive at the finish line within a couple minutes of each other for their huge, 500-1000 mile races? Most of the driving shots are filmed after the events themselves under safer, more controlled conditions. So yeah, the events in Top Gear are mostly fictitious, but that doesn't mean they aren't highly entertaining.

@NoMoreENRG 7 жыл бұрын

Maybe they didn't have filming permission for certain areas? Filming for Top Gear would require roads to be closed.

Nope, the hardest part is definately keeping all those mixed up parkour emotions bottled up inside for so long before finally coming to the realization that it's who are and admitting to all your friends, family and girlfriend at the time that ... you like parkour. Then probably the second hardest thing is the first night you and your parkour partner decide to go 'all the way' and 'backflip' all night. And then ... I'd say it's probably the landing-on-your-head thing you mentioned is next.

@TheKre8ion from wikipedia: The term freerunning is sometimes incorrectly used interchangeably with l'art du déplacement. While l'art du déplacement aims to enable the practitioner to be able to move quickly and creatively past obstacles, freerunning is a competition sport, with Urban FreeFlow being credited with this change of definition. Freerunning includes the use of tricking moves such as aerial rotations and spins, ....theres more

Have you considered that what you pay for a new Peugeot is barely more than the cost of materials it's made of - at least at the basic trim level? So to maintain profitability, the margin is folded completely into extras and service; the high replacement part prices (and yet low compared to most other companies) allow them to maintain the service network in the first place.
