Brilliant

This is one of the best specials they ever made, I've not watched Top Gear since the trio left the BBC, I continue to watch and enjoy The Grand Tour with them but the specials now don't feel this rugged, harsh and unforgiving, In this special they have simular old beat up cars which is always where they peak, this is a wonderful funny special, beautiful country, good fun to watch them struggle with their cars. This is the trio at their best, the fighting feels real, the humour is funny, the struggle feels real. Let's be honest, the more they struggle the better the episode and this one looks like a real struggle.

From Amazon rainforest to the Pacific via toughest terrains on earth.

This episode takes Top Gear to a whole new level. The three wise men are asked to get a second hand ride and cover some 1000 odd miles in the worst condition ever. A Suzuki, a Landie and a LC. Perfect recipe for fun! A adventure full journey that tests the cars and the drivers to their very limit. And my god it was awesome!

The usual fun quotient of Jezza is at its best backed by the perfect timings of Mr. Hammond and Mr. Slow. So, fasten your seat belt and enjoy the adventure fueled journey which can surely be the best you'll ever come across.

Don't miss it.Even if you don't like Top Gear or say 4WD!

Trivia
In this special there are two noticeable differences from the previous two. The first is that the presenters are not provided with an unappealing backup vehicle if one of theirs fails (in the Botswana special it was the VW Beetle and in the Vietnam one it was the Honda Chaly mini-bike painted in the colours of the Stars and Stripes). The second is that in the credits, the names appear as normal instead of being preceded by a reference to someone or something that happened in that country ("Archbishop Desmond" in the Botswana special and "Francis Ford" in the Vietnam one).

Goofs
Clarkson says at one point that the first Aztec girl they come across would be making a beeline for his Range Rover. The Aztec empire was in the region of modern-day Mexico, not Bolivia. He probably has them confused with the Inca.
