With New Zealanders being arguably the most passionate Top Gear fans in the world, it is hardly surprising that they&ve gone the extra distance and created their own miniature version of the Top Gear Test Track, where our own local stars can challenge the leader-board in a reasonably-priced car.
In fact when Top Gear Live comes to town on the 18th — 21st February, the entire ASB Showgrounds arena will be transformed into a fully fledged Motoring Festival with a sensational live theatre show featuring Jeremy Clarkson, James May and our own Greg Murphy, a showcase of fabulous and exotic cars and an outdoor track where car marques, stunt drivers and celebrities will go helmet to helmet in a bid to reign supreme.
Top Gear Live Convoy – Celebrating Motoring and the Love of Great Cars
Feb 5th
Â
The Convoy's 1935 Alfa Romeo Tipo C worth $4.5 million
Classic car enthusiasts throughout New Zealand are preparing to tour the nation in a convoy featuring some of the world’s rarest cars – the Top Gear Live Convoy in association with Moro: fuelling great Kiwi roadtrips since 1967.
The starting gun will be fired in Invercargill on Sunday February 14 to send the Top Gear Live Convoy of around 25 classic prestige and performance cars valued at more than $30 million on a tour of the country.
The Convoy will stop at Shell service stations in Invercargill, Dunedin, Timaru, Christchurch, Wellington, Palmerston North, Hastings, Napier, Taupo and Hamilton – arriving in Auckland on Thursday February 18 just in time for the opening show of Top Gear Live, powered by Shell V-Power.
The World’s First Ticket Drive-Thru for Top Gear Live 2010
Sep 24th
Date: Friday 25th Sept 2009
Time: 8:00am — 10:00am
Address: 379 Dominion Road, Mt Eden, Auckland
Follow that car! To the Top Gear Live Drive-Thru Ticket Booth where sales to the 2010 show go live before the rest of the country, and the world.
On Friday the 25th to celebrate the first release of ticket sales Top Gear Live will be providing New Zealand&s first ever Top Gear Live drive-thru Ticketek booth, so fans can simply roll up in their favourite vehicle, buy a ticket and drive off without leaving the car.
Overnight, a service station forecourt will be transformed into a ticketing drive-thru complete with Ticketek desk and a line-up of luxury cars — a free coffee for each driver to complete the package. What could be more convenient? And what&s more, those keen drivers who turn up early will be able to beat the official online sales time by one hour (official ticket sales to the public start at 9:00am) and one lucky driver will walk away with two free tickets!
We&re expecting a colourful sight as dozens, perhaps hundreds of drivers find their way to Mt Eden to get their tickets and experience a little bit of Top Gear Live excitement at (we believe) the world&s first ever ticket sales drive-thru.
