[On the Hilux]
We love cars like this on Top Gear. That's why we love the Citroën Berlingo and the Daihatsu Charade; they're simple, honest-to-God engineering.
“November 23rd, 2003” · Season 3, Episode 5
In this episode: Jeremy Clarkson (15), James May (6), Richard Hammond (5), Simon (2)
[After driving the pick-up down the steps]
[Voiceover] It damaged my spine quite badly, doing this. And then it set about damaging Bristol.
[tapping on a mangled fender after running the Hilux into a tree]
That'll buff out.
[when the Hilux starts after having been washed out to sea in the Severn estuary]
[shouting over the engine roar] I do not believe this! It works!
[At the grassy part of the test track]
The problem is, what can we do here that we haven't already tried? [The pick-up then drops behind Jeremy] Difficult one.
[Before the caravan drop on the Hilux]
The Americans have used daisy cutters on these things, to no avail. But I have something much more powerful... [cuts to a parked caravan; voiceover] The Mistral GT... [shows the same caravan dropped on the Hilux]
[After the caravan drop]
[crawling in through the window] Lordy lord, I'm too old for this.
[...]
I honestly can't believe this; the steering is fine, the gearbox is fine, the low-range box is fine, the brakes are fine... Even the speedo's telling me we're doing thirty.
[Announcing the result of the Hilux torture test]
All of which makes it more of a shame that in the end you killed it with fire.
That was churlish.
Well, that's the thing. You probably won't believe this, ladies and gentlemen. I want a huge round of applause, IT IS STILL WORKING!
[after the end credits]
Can we just stop the competition now?
No, we bloody can't; I'm going to phone Damon Hill next week!
