Top Gear - The Complete Specials Box Set [DVD] [UK Import]

I love Top Gear. This collection has all of the adventures. Fun to watch. Just make sure your player can play region code 2. My player is region free so it works just fine. You can purchase a region free play on Amazon. Very inexpensive.

There is nothing to dislike about this. My only real complaint would be during the original Top Gear, they may have not been considered specials, but there were a lot of episodes that were focused on one specific topic that could have been included. WARNING: I recommend buying a cheap external DVD drive for a laptop or something. Because this is from the UK the region is different and will not play on American DVD players unless specified. I had an extra external drive and changed the region in the properties. I suggest the extra external drive because after switching "X" amount of times it will lock that drive to a specific region. That means either you will have a dedicated UK DVD player or no device (again) to watch the DVDs on.

Great set of dvd’s. If you are a fan of Top Gear I recommend picking this one up.

As expected! Grateful I was able to find these. Someone had a left a review about programming the external DVD player to match the country and it worked! Happy campers over here!

I took a chance and bought it hoping our Sony machine would be one of the fluke ones it worked in.... No such luck. I was going to order a new player specifically to watch these DVDs, but had the GENIUS idea to try it on my son's cheap Chinese "Arafuna" DVD player he uses for school. BEHOLD THE MAGNITUDE OF MY GENIUS!!!! It worked, and now we are laughing our way through all the specials, which are truly the best part of the show.

This is a Region 2 locked set with copy protection via scramble. That being said common media players for PC like VLC bypass both and are completely legal. you know what else is legal in both the U.S. and U.K.? Transformation of storage medium. Anyways assuming you're in Region 2 or intend to use a computer that doesn't care, this is actually a really nice set. 2 discs per tray, quality trays, clean box. Clearly a hold over from the time when people actually cared about making Boxsets usable.

THIS IS FOR REGION 2! (as warned) Before ordering, I checked online for my Blu-Ray model number and yes, it was region free so said all the ads. Get the disks... and no, it won't play. Find the Sony manual and no, it isn't region free like all the ads say, and none of the "hacks" work to make it region free. BUT I also have my Mac hooked to my TV and it played it like a champ. So figure that out before ordering. Other than that, these are my favorite parts of Top Gear. Plus Top Gear in America was only an hour usually, so it was edited. These have parts I have never seen before which are great. Can't recommended enough.

First off I love Top Gear. The show is awesome. This is the only 1 star rating I have ever given. This product can not be used in the USA unless you have a Region free DVD player. Which I had never heard of until buying this. Would have been extremely helpful to explain this before I bought it. I had to spend an additional $35 to buy a region free dvd player because there is no known hack to unlock regions for the dvd player I have. Very disappointed in Amazon for allowing this type of thing to happen with a product sold on there site.

Très bonne émission

I got all the top gear specials and the directors commentary but also a bunch of other little bit and pieces, like deleted scenes, photo albums and some times laps for some of the cars. Amazing stuff.

Fab!! Great fun, entertaining & educational. Thoroughly enjoyed this box set. Laughed more than I have for ages. Well worth it. As I enjoyed this so much and Amazon recommended it and bought Top Gear the challenges 1-6 + other specials. Only downside is the disks were hard to get out, otherwise fabulous! 10/10. Clarkson, Hammond & May at their best. Contains all specials from the trios Top Gear tenure.

Me fascina la libertad con la que hablan. Programa independiente de coches imposible en un país como España donde domina lo políticamente correcto y donde todas las cadenas son siervas de algún grupo de opinión, partido político o grupo empresarial de interés propio y donde no existen periodistas independientes y ecuánimes.
