Top Gear - Bolivia Special

The Top Gear gang embark on an epic comic and dramatic adventure. Jeremy Clarkson, Richard Hammond and James May are dropped deep in the Bolivian rainforest armed only with three 4x4s which they bought from the local small ads for a maximum of 3500 pounds each. They attempt to drive from the heart of Bolivia to the coast of Chile, encountering drug lords and the debilitating effects of high altitude. But before that, they've got to escape from the deep centre of the rainforest in what is without doubt the toughest challenge Top Gear has ever faced.
