Top Gear Patagonia Special Subtitles

At 00:00:21,800, Character said: Hello and welcome

2
At 00:00:23,720, Character said: to the 11 th Top Gear Special,
which for once

3
At 00:00:27,480, Character said: is actually being transmitted quite
close to the birthday of baby Jesus.

4
At 00:00:32,880, Character said: Unless you're watching a repeat.

5
At 00:00:34,560, Character said: Yes, James.
Unless you're watching the repeat.

6
At 00:00:36,320, Character said: Well, it's quite confusing...

7
At 00:00:37,760, Character said: Anyway, 2014 marked the 60th anniversary
of the cheap to make,

8
At 00:00:42,360, Character said: maximum-bangs-for-your-bucks
small-block V8.

9
At 00:00:45,320, Character said: And the producers thought
it would be a good idea

10
At 00:00:47,440, Character said: for us to celebrate the moment.

11
At 00:00:49,600, Character said: Yes, especially since,
as a lot of people are saying,

12
At 00:00:52,160, Character said: owing to environmentalism,

13
At 00:00:53,960, Character said: the need for greater fuel economy,

14
At 00:00:55,640, Character said: the V8 could soon be
a thing of the past.

15
At 00:00:59,040, Character said: Quite, so the producers told us

16
At 00:01:01,240, Character said: to buy three old V8-powered cars

17
At 00:01:03,600, Character said: and report with them
to a hotel near the town of Bariloche

18
At 00:01:07,480, Character said: here in Argentina.

19
At 00:01:21,480, Character said: This was
the meeting point, in the middle

20
At 00:01:23,600, Character said: of what's billed as
Argentina's Lake District.

21
At 00:01:28,000, Character said: And I was the first to
arrive in a magnificent Porsche 928 GT.

22
At 00:01:38,280, Character said: That is quite a view
and this is quite a car.

23
At 00:01:46,320, Character said: I have always loved 928s,
'cause they were just so futuristic.

24
At 00:01:51,440, Character said: I mean, this car is 23 years old

25
At 00:01:54,240, Character said: and it looks like it was
designed yesterday.

26
At 00:01:56,840, Character said: And it was the last
good-looking car that Porsche ever made.

27
At 00:02:00,760, Character said: And, although it's a V8,
it's quiet and dignified and elegant.

28
At 00:02:06,800, Character said: If this were a person,
it would go to embassy

29
At 00:02:09,240, Character said: cocktail parties and know many things.

30
At 00:02:12,000, Character said: Traditional V8s would

31
At 00:02:14,120, Character said: push you in the swimming pool

32
At 00:02:15,600, Character said: and then fart and think it was funny.

33
At 00:02:17,840, Character said: Traditional V8s,
well, like this, for example,

34
At 00:02:21,120, Character said: they're brash and they're loud
and they're childish.

35
At 00:02:30,760, Character said: What have you done, Hammond?

36
At 00:02:33,000, Character said: There it is, not just a V8,

37
At 00:02:36,360, Character said: the definitive V8.

38
At 00:02:38,440, Character said: - Is it?
- Ford Mustang, the Mach One.

39
At 00:02:44,120, Character said: Look at it.

40
At 00:02:45,720, Character said: It's a bit...

41
At 00:02:46,960, Character said: - It's brilliant.
- Unnecessary.

42
At 00:02:48,720, Character said: No, it's not.
That's the whole point of it.

43
At 00:02:50,640, Character said: It's stripped down. Everything on it
is functional, purpose...

44
At 00:02:53,160, Character said: - Is it?
- Yes.

45
At 00:02:54,280, Character said: This rear spoiler, what does it do?

46
At 00:02:55,960, Character said: Nothing.

47
At 00:02:57,080, Character said: Does the front splitter do anything?

48
At 00:02:59,120, Character said: - No.
- Racing fuel filler cap?

49
At 00:03:01,080, Character said: No, it's just a cover.

50
At 00:03:02,240, Character said: Is the engine 19 feet long?

51
At 00:03:05,600, Character said: No, no, it's not.

52
At 00:03:06,880, Character said: Why then has it g***t a 19-foot bonnet?

53
At 00:03:09,200, Character said: Well, because they decided they wanted
to make the Mustang bigger in '71,

54
At 00:03:13,360, Character said: so they did and they did that by

55
At 00:03:16,120, Character said: just making it bigger.

56
At 00:03:18,160, Character said: - This is alljust pointless?
- No, it's bigger.

57
At 00:03:21,320, Character said: And that is the ram air, and that's
a Edelbrock carb underneath it,

58
At 00:03:23,880, Character said: the plenum there, it works.

59
At 00:03:25,640, Character said: I mean, if I were nine,

60
At 00:03:27,760, Character said: it would be tremendous, but I'm not.

61
At 00:03:31,000, Character said: I mean, it's alljust preposterous.

62
At 00:03:32,800, Character said: It's brilliant is what it is!

63
At 00:03:34,280, Character said: It's the essence of V8ness.

64
At 00:03:36,920, Character said: Shall we just
turn our attention now

65
At 00:03:38,520, Character said: to the elephant that isn't in the room.

66
At 00:03:40,760, Character said: - Uh, yeah.
- Captain Lost.

67
At 00:03:42,840, Character said: - What do you think...
- I don't know...

68
At 00:03:44,240, Character said: I've been thinking, I don't know.

69
At 00:03:45,560, Character said: Had to be a V8, so I thought
it'll be a Mercedes.

70
At 00:03:49,680, Character said: He'll have gone, like
he did in Botswana, solid.

71
At 00:03:52,200, Character said: Er, I thought, I reckon
he's gone for Range Rover.

72
At 00:03:55,520, Character said: In fact, we couldn't
have been more wrong.

73
At 00:03:59,160, Character said: No way! That is not him!

74
At 00:04:03,760, Character said: Not serious!

75
At 00:04:07,480, Character said: He's gone completely mad!

76
At 00:04:11,520, Character said: - I bet he thinks he's Bond.
- He does think he's Bond.

77
At 00:04:14,000, Character said: Don't say anything about his suit.

78
At 00:04:15,280, Character said: - No.
- Hi.

79
At 00:04:17,600, Character said: - Gentlemen. The Lotus Esprit.
- Isn't it?

80
At 00:04:21,160, Character said: Twin turbo V8.

81
At 00:04:26,520, Character said: Have you been on
a Top GearSpecial before?

82
At 00:04:28,720, Character said: - I've seen you on them.
- Yes.

83
At 00:04:29,880, Character said: You have, I've seen you there.

84
At 00:04:31,000, Character said: - Yes, I have, I have.
- He definitely has.

85
At 00:04:32,560, Character said: - James, they're tough.
- Yeah.

86
At 00:04:34,560, Character said: Some viewers don't know this

87
At 00:04:36,080, Character said: but Lotus does not have
a good reputation for quality.

88
At 00:04:39,720, Character said: Some say that this stands for,

89
At 00:04:41,600, Character said: "Lots Of Trouble, Usually Serious."

90
At 00:04:44,600, Character said: It has a hand-built V8 engine
with two turbo chargers

91
At 00:04:49,720, Character said: designed by a specialist
small British car-making company.

92
At 00:04:53,560, Character said: And that is a byword for reliability

93
At 00:04:55,160, Character said: and motoring pleasure.

94
At 00:04:56,280, Character said: - We know that.
- It's just not, and you know that.

95
At 00:04:57,920, Character said: Can we just run through
some of the detailing on it?

96
At 00:05:00,320, Character said: - Carry on.
- The door handles on this model

97
At 00:05:02,600, Character said: - are from a Vauxhall Cavalier.
- Correct.

98
At 00:05:04,760, Character said: Door mirrors
are from a Citroen.

99
At 00:05:06,400, Character said: Don't touch it.

100
At 00:05:07,680, Character said: The gearbox in this
is from a Renault 25.

101
At 00:05:10,000, Character said: Correct.

102
At 00:05:11,120, Character said: Because that was
the best gearbox they could find?

103
At 00:05:13,640, Character said: - Or the only one that would fit?
- It was the only one that would fit.

104
At 00:05:16,480, Character said: And of course,
the body is made from exactly

105
At 00:05:18,840, Character said: the same material as a lavatory seat.

106
At 00:05:21,120, Character said: Or a bucket.

107
At 00:05:22,400, Character said: Anyway, have you finished
being envious of my car?

108
At 00:05:24,800, Character said: If I can move on, the Porsche 928.

109
At 00:05:27,160, Character said: - Yes.
- Fascinating.

110
At 00:05:28,400, Character said: Hammond!

111
At 00:05:29,920, Character said: Wowzers! I do like that,

112
At 00:05:32,200, Character said: in a slightly
Richard Hammondy sort of way.

113
At 00:05:34,240, Character said: Is that a Mach One?

114
At 00:05:35,320, Character said: It certainly is.

115
At 00:05:36,440, Character said: - Yeah, yeah.
- Look at that.

116
At 00:05:39,040, Character said: - Tell me that isn't magnificent...
- ...ly boring.

117
At 00:05:42,520, Character said: - It isn't.
- I'm glad it's grey, though.

118
At 00:05:44,800, Character said: - Why?
- Well, because it's very business-like.

119
At 00:05:46,840, Character said: You can advise me on
my mortgage later on.

120
At 00:05:48,880, Character said: I **, as always, the voice
of reason and wisdom on this programme.

121
At 00:05:54,120, Character said: We couldhave
bickered forever but at this point

122
At 00:05:56,680, Character said: our challenge arrived.

123
At 00:06:00,840, Character said: "You will now drive 130 miles
to the house where Butch Cassidy lived

124
At 00:06:05,640, Character said: "when he was on the run from the law."

125
At 00:06:08,480, Character said: 130 miles?

126
At 00:06:10,080, Character said: - Hang on, that's it?
- That's somewhere interesting.

127
At 00:06:11,800, Character said: I thought there was going to be another,

128
At 00:06:13,040, Character said: you know, there's usually
the other paragraph.

129
At 00:06:14,840, Character said: - "...to where Butch Cassidy lived."
- I love Butch Cassidy.

130
At 00:06:17,600, Character said: My favourite film
in the...
