TopGear UK having an online open casting call

30 second videos of the presenter siting or standing from the waist up discussing their love of cars is the format.

So which GRM'er would you like to see submit a video.

I nominate myself.

If this is real, 4chan will make Pitbull or Limp Bizkit the presenter. I sincerely hope you're joking.

Oh E36 M3, this is real, do we learn nothing?

I think a Hitler impersonator may also have a good chance at winning.

Edit: Oh phew, no online voting for the winner, false alarm.

I might nominate myself though, because I would like to get ludicrously rich while having about as much fun as possible, and I am qualified.

Wally and GPS....

I'd throw myself in for some character actor type roles and the occasional groin punch to wally.

I refuse to appear on Top Gear without Jeremy Clarkson.

Can I audition as the Stig's Fat American cousin?

I bet Clarkson will submit an audition

In reply to HappyAndy:

That'd be great. I'm in for Keira Knightley hosting just to upset JC.

I would add a segment of non stars in obscenely priced cars. Regular people grabbed off the street and put out in a super car and interviewed about their day. I could just see the havoc of some lunch lady trying to get a handle on a Veyron.

In reply to Wally:

it would descend to well endowed woman in low cut tops attempting to drive F40s and comments about 40Fs making a cameo during their drive.

I think that's a great idea Wally!

i would, but i have a strong fear of flying so going to england may kill me along the way.

I thought it had potential. I don't know who half the stars are and everyone has at least one entertaining story from work the could share that would be as entertaining as some pop singer.

"Joining us now is the British equivalent of the Maytag repairman always sitting about doing nothing, Welsh dentist...." He could share an amusing anecdote about a pus filled abscess exploding on his hygienist then he goes out and plows through the infield demonstrating the latest R8's awd system.

Update: Instructions for application are now up:

I'm reading through the T&Cs right now, and unless I find something terrible in there, I will be applying. It's the world's best job and applying's not much trouble, so why not?

Chris Evans has also suggested that a Stig might be hired from the applicants pool.

While I'd love to try it I am cursed with the Stig's public speaking skills and Capt Slow'a driving talent.

I've been working on my video's script in my head over the last couple of days, I think I've got the basic concept settled...I just hope the presenter won't have to be good-looking. That would be unprecedented anyway
