The 12th series of Top Gear contained eight episodes,[1] and premiered on 2nd November 2008,[2] with the usual presenting team of Jeremy Clarkson, Richard Hammond, James May and The Stig. Clarkson was injured while filming this series, after crashing a lorry through a brick wall at 56 mph in the first episode's HGV challenge.[3]

The running joke regarding the Dacia Sandero continues from series 11, with the alteration that Clarkson is now the one making the announcement with feigned enthusiasm, to utter indifference from May (instead of vice versa). Each news segment also features one of the hosts wearing something unusual, like slippers or a garishly patterned shirt. The only reference to this is that one of the other hosts will, at some point in the segment, ask if they're wearing it for a bet. The Stig, instead of listening to music during power laps, now listens to morse code.

The final episode, the Top Gear: Vietnam Special, aired two weeks after the rest of the series as part of the BBC's Christmas lineup.[4]

Four 'Best Of' specials covering series eleven and twelve were broadcast between the first of January and the first of February 2009.

Main Review: Clarkson tests the Porsche 911 GT2 and Lamborghini Gallardo LP560-4 on the Top Gear track. Clarkson favoured the Gallardo, which went around the Top Gear test track at 1:19.5, because it was easier to drive and faster in a straight line. However, Clarkson didn't reveal the lap time of the Porsche until a later episode, in which he revealed a time of 1:19.5 also, tying the Lamborghini. The Gallardo was faster than its big brother, the Murcielago LP640 which did 1:19.8 in Series 9.

Challenge: The Top Gear team each buy a second hand truck and travel to "Top Gear's Secret Alpine Test Location" in Bedfordshire to test how easy it is to be a HGV driver. With their 5000 pound budget May buys a Scania 94D, Clarkson buys a Renault Magnum and Hammond an ERF EC11.

Challenge 1: The three had to decorate and personalize their trucks as drivers in "less developed countries like Australia and America" would. Richard made his ERF look like an American lorry with a bonnet which was actually a dog kennel, James decorated his with an Indian look and Jeremy gave his lorry a "stealth" look, which drastically reduced visibility.

Challenge 2: Jeremy, Richard and James would have to powerslide their lorries. Protesting that it was not possible, they watched a demonstration done by Rig Stig, The Stig's lorry driving cousin, "whose favorite song is Forever Autumn by Justin Hayward" and who has the "worlds largest collection of pornographical material" who did the slide in a modified MAN truck. All three tried their best but the lorries did not slide, although Jeremy slid off the chair in his lorry due to the "huge G-force" and since he did not fasten the seat belt, he injured himself.

Challenge 3: The next challenge was to go to the High Speed Bowl in Millbrook, but before that the three would have to hitch up a trailer with valuable cargo and drive around the Alpine course under three minutes. Richard had a car which was not fastened down properly as his 'valuable' cargo, James had a wedding cake and Jeremy had a stack of straw at one end of the trailer and an electric heater at the other. James finished first and completed the course in just over three minutes, although his cargo was damaged (made worse by his attempted to fix it); Richard's car fell off the trailer while he was still on the course (though he later said was 'stolen'); Jeremy finished last with the trailer on fire.

Challenge 4: The three would drive around the Millbrook High speed bowl, with the limiters deactivated (Trucks are limited to 56mph - 90kph) to discover the maximum speed of their lorries. James' lorry reached a maximum speed of 64.6mph, Jeremy's lorry reached 80mph, and Richard's reached a quick 90mph.

Challenge 5: Each presenter is required to do a hill start in their lorries, with something close to their hearts behind the trailer to keep them focused. The winner would receive a years worth of 'gentleman's literature'. Jeremy had his beloved drum kit behind his lorry, and was successful in the hill start, but Richard and James destroyed his drums regardless. Richard had Oliver (the Opel Kadett from the African Challenge, which has a new coat of paint and personalized number plate "OLIV3R") behind his lorry, and chickened out of the challenge. James had his grand piano placed behind his lorry. When his piano was being lowered down to the ground one of the piano legs fell off and was hoisted up to rest on a stack of porn magazines. James failed that challenge when he rolled back into the piano; much to the relief of...(and so on)
