Description
Season 12 kicks off with a crash when Jeremy, Richard and James buy second-hand trucks to become HGV (heavy goods vehicle) drivers - much harder than they thought. They travel to the USA to take three new generation big-engine 'muscle' cars on an epic road trip from San Francisco to Utah; are challenged to drive from the heart of Switzerland to the North West coast of England on just one tank of gas. James travels to the frozen North to discover why the Finns are such good race drivers.

Top Gear ends the current series in epic style as Jeremy Clarkson, Richard Hammond and James May travel to Vietnam. Their aim is to travel the entire length of the country in just eight days, thereby achieving what the American military failed to do in 10 years. However, first they must each buy some suitable transport for the trip and, despite having several million Dong in their pockets, this proves to be of rather less value than they originally thought, especially in one of the most expensive car markets in the world. Nonetheless, the boys are resourceful and, with their wheels finally sorted, they set off on one of the most spectacular and incredible Top Gear road trips ever attempted.
