Top Gear: Polar Special (2008)
At Resolute, Nunavut, Clarkson and Hammond announced their intention to travel from the small hamlet to the 1996 location of the magnetic north pole. Hammond declared he would be going there the traditional way via dog sled, aided by American explorer Matty McNair. Clarkson stated that he aimed to beat his colleague in a car to prove that it could reach the pole. The car in question would be a Toyota Hilux which had been modified for the trip with powerful headlamps, bigger wheels and an altered suspension. For the trip, in which Clarkson hoped to prove that Arctic explorations to the pole could be quicker and luxurious, he would be accompanied by a reluctant May, who was not eager to go to the pole.
