The Telegraph’s Top Gear Quiz

Top Gear quiz

Test your knowledge of the BBC's Top Gear television programme with our tricky quiz

"Love it or loathe it, it’s hard to argue against the fact that the BBC’s Top Gear has become the best-known motoring show not just in the UK, but around the world.

It’s spawned franchises in America, Australia, Russia and even South Korea – not bad for a show that started as an innocuous half-hour consumer magazine on BBC2.

But how much of a fan – or otherwise – of Top Gear are you? Put yourself to the test with our quiz.

As usual, the pass mark is 80 per cent - but just this once, if you profess to hate the show, we’ll give you extra credit if you score a resounding 0 per cent."

I failed. I know nothing about previous TG presenters (unfair questions) and I am quite sure that Jezza has said many, many times that the Corolla is extremely uninteresting.

It is pretty hard to pass, it has 10 questions, if you just get two questions wrong you fail

I thought the same thing about the Jezza question Q.2. 
In his column Clarkson on: leaving Top Gear TV from March 1999 Jeremy writes:
"There are, of course, other reasons why I needed to go. There was, for instance, surprise when I described the Corolla as dull and, yes, even shock when I was seen to fall asleep while driving it. And then, there was surprise again when I savaged the Vectra, refusing for seven minutes of tele-visual time to say anything about it."

I think we're correct and what they claim to be the answer is wrong

Any questions about previous TG presenters should have been for bonus points

I failed also. I got 60%.

50%. That can't be right.
