Top Gear is back! Sort of. The boys are busy making a new Christmas special DVD, and thank God this year they decided to stay in Europe and not go somewhere dreary like the Middle East or India. Not that those places are bad or anything, but their features don’t exactly lend themselves to a good motoring program. Oh, and James May’s not in it, either.

Here’s a little taster of what Top Gear The Perfect Road Trip DVD – still in the making – will have to offer:

There are bits in there filmed in France with cars like the Bugatti Veyron Vitesse and Lamborghini Aventador Roadster that are really amazing. Thing is, Jeremy and Richard have reportedly been banned from driving in France as a result of this. They might have been speeding or something. Bloody French, eh? What was God thinking when he gave them those roads, and scenery, and wine, and girls?
