Anyway, the odd-looking Nissan Cube by the way...it's now on its 2013 model year and what to expect on the 2013MY Cube is simple...

The HR15DE engine that powers the Cube is now made even more economical thanks to the addition of idling stop system that shuts the engine off when stopped at the Cube and then start again when you set off. Thanks to that and the improved XTRONIC CVT, the fuel consumption is now 19km/L based on Japan's JC08 cycle. Two new colors are added for the 2013 model year such as Light Ginger and Lagoon Blue. Also, they've added a Vintage Camel interior color as well.

| Happy Halloween!!! |
Now as you may now, tomorrow, October 31, 2012 is Halloween. It's that time of the day kids are going out for some trick and treating. Everyone around the world are going to dress themselves as...
Mummies...Witches....Ghosts...Frankensteins...Devils...Black Cats....
Hammo!!!!
(Audience laughing)
What? I was thinking that everyone around the world's going to dress themselves as something scary for the Halloween.
Yeah! Indeed! Not just scary but cool.
Really? What are you going to be this time? Don't tell me, you wanna be Sherlock Holmes eh? What Sherlock Holmes is it? The one with the Iron Man dude on it? The one with Benedict Cumberbatch on it? Or is it the American version from the new show called Elementary?
Neither....
Then which Sherlock do you want to be?
Sherlock Shellingford...
(audience laughing)
But Jezza, Shellingford's a girl.
I'm sorry what?
Sherlock...Shellingford's....a girl. Look at her outfit...
 |
| Nendoroid Sherlock Shellingford |
...Her outfit is pink, her hair is pink, pink is for girls. Don't you understand you fat middle-aged man who spends the most of his life yelling POWERRRRR!!!!!!
(audience laughing)
Never mind about that Hamster...better yet you should be the Walker from The Walking Dead TV show. Not sure why they're going to have a video game based on the hit TV series next year despite there's a five-part video game based on the Walking Dead...
Ahem...
What, Capt. Slow?
Isn't it the Telltale Studios game of The Walking Dead, currently on Episode 4 with the finale coming soon?
Oh sorry. Gosh! What's the difference?!!!!
(audience laughing)
Never mind about that being a walker at the Halloween! I just wanna be...
Majin Boo....
(audience laughing, then cheers and applause)
What?
Majin Boo! The bad guy from the Dragon Ball Z anime. He's pink and I think you're fit for that one, Jezza...
(Audience laughing)
Hamster, I don't wanna be Majin Boo! That's so old-school!
What old-school? DBZ may be an old-school anime but still gets going and going and going with its updated DBZ Kai anime and then they recently have the DBZ Kinect game for XBOX 360.
Hammo! Enough DB stuff. I don't wanna be Majin Boo! It's hideous for me to be like that!
Well fine. I wish this fat middle-aged man like you should be dissolved into several Adiposes...

| Adipose |
(audience laughing)
Why? Why do you want me to be dissolved into several Adiposes?!
Because Adiposes are cute! I wanna hug them all!
Guys, would you please stop bickering for a moment. There are so many people out there wanting to dress as their favorites for Halloween and I think I might suggest the ladies something else.
Slow, about kissograms, you see that there are so many girls who are Whovians out there really want to enjoy being Amelia Pond in her kissogram outfit...
 |
| Kissogram |
...I mean how to dress like Amelia Pond in her kissogram outfit? I mean it's a British policewoman's outfit. It's a property to Metropolitan Police but picture this. You are a female Whovian, then your parents worked or used to worked at the Metropolitan Police in UK. You noticed that there is a policewoman's uniform that looks the same as Amy's. What should you do?
(audience laughing)
Permission of course.
It's not that easy. It's like "Hey mom, can I borrow your police uniform for my Halloween Party? I wanna be like Amy Pond from Doctor Who as a kissogram".
(audience laughing)
And then, they'll reject your request because it's theirs. Isn't that complicating? These uniforms are property of Metropolitan Police and not used for dressing as kissograms. I mean what is a kissogram anyway? I kept hearing that word over and over again!!!! What the (bleep)?!
(audience laughing)
What's next? Find a white Alpinestars Racing Suit and a Simpson Diamondback Helmet and then dress yourself as The Stig for Halloween?! Ahem...Stig in a Halloween Party? Stig goes out for some candies?! This is (bleep)!!! (bleep)!!!! (bleep)!!!!
(audience laughing)
Whoa! Clarksie! Better calm down! Perhaps....there's another way...
What?
Why don't we dress like ourselves, the Top Gear boys! Listen up...we went some digging at the BBC America's Anglophenia blog and we found something that you can dress yourselves as Clarkson, Hammond and May! I know it's weird but try it!
First up...how to dress as Jeremy Clarkson:
1: Hair – Like any fashion icon, Jeremy knows the key to a strong look starts with a unique hairstyle, something that would look foolish on anyone else. Forget curly hair, that’s what Roger Daltrey and Robert Plant have. Jeremy has a dense crown of fluff that encircles his pate like a woollen halo. Bear that in mind, and you’re set.
2: Shirt – Some people save their loud shirts for the holidays. Not our Jeremy. What he tends to favor is a long sleeved, slightly-crumpled affair, either white, light blue, washed-out pink, or made of a pattern which would best be saved for the wallpaper in an oppressive, but very expensive hotel.
3: Tie – Don’t be soft. Clarksons don’t wear ties.
4: Trousers – Jeans. Always always jeans. Stonewashed but not necessarily your classic Levi 501s. The trick is to get a pair of jeans that have been worn by someone else, someone whose body shape is not the same as yours. Skin-tight, high-fashion, or low-slung with writing on, these jeans are not your friends. Again, top quality denimwear will not be required. The true Clarkson can rock a $5 pair of jeans like David Beckham on a night out.
5: Jacket – Apart from your classic black sports jacket, there are two options: leather or tweed (with the brown elbow covers), with perhaps leather’s cousin suede coming over at the weekends. Sports jacket or blouson, don’t be afraid of bold tan colors. The Clarkson favors those hues which occur most often in shoe polish: tan, black, oxblood, navy. Speaking of which…
6: Shoes – Anything from a classic brogue to one of your modern pasty-style shoes. Don’t rule out sneakers, but nothing too modern or trendy. Nothing that will cushion the sensitivity between the right foot and the gas pedal either.
Then, Richard Hammond:
1: Hair – getting the Hammond hair is trickier than you might think. It’s a style which betrays a certain amount of styling – more so than either of his co-hosts, at any rate – but which is also unattended, to a very specific level. Think if it as being like the school prefect who has just discovered the thrills of breaking the rules here and there. The short-back-and-sides has long since grown out into an unruly shag, but it still has shape. If you’re untroubled by hair, get yourself a Beatle wig and give it some volume in the right places using, y’know, hair products (or sump oil, if you’re at all worried about looking vain).
2: Teeth – whitened (allegedly). Use a cut-up plastic cup if your own teeth don’t quite make the grade.
3: Shirt – again, the look you’re aiming for is of someone who spends a little bit more on his clothes than the other two. So the shirts are of a noticably more modern design and cut. But not too modern. The true Hammond will rock a shirt that makes him look like a dandy, unless he is in the company of an actual dandy. Oh and nothing too bright. Even the white shirts are off-white. Oh and never, ever tuck them in.
4: Jacket – sports jackets in dark colors are a particular favorite. Or something leathery and mid-length. Black leather or tan suede, preferably. Avoid the blouson or anything that puffs out unduly. Hammond’s clothes all have that retro ’70s cut to them. Speaking of which…
5: Trousers – jeans. Stone-washed and boot-cut. And expensive-looking. The classic Hammond looks like an off-duty rock star at his child’s nativity.
6: Shoes – the only deviation from the ’70s cut. Flat-soled, flat-toed shoes in grey or black, with some intricate stitching somewhere. Nothing too heeled or pointy, or cheap.
Last, James May:
1: Hair – there are factions of May-ites that prefer the long tresses to the crop. There are others who see the grown-out mop as being decadent and vulgar in comparison to the shorter, more elegant look. Suffice to say that if you wish people to believe that you are James May, you’ll need a volume of hair, equivalent to that of a girl scout on a humid day. A little backcombing will help you achieve this, or failing that, sleep with the wig on.
2: Shirt – assuming you’re not attempting to copy the May chunky turtleneck sweater (not something we would advise for first-timers), you’ll need something eye catching, patterned, and a little too big. If Jeremy Clarkson’s shirts look like wallpaper in a forbiddingly expensive hotel, James May’s look like the curtains in the bathroom.
3: Tie – uh! No way! Ties are for THE MAN, MAN.
4: Jacket – smart but practical but casual. Nothing frock-coatish or try-hard, nothing which represents the very nowness of fashion. A sports jacket in black or tweed or corduroy, or a leather windcheater, these are the staples. However, if you can get a sheepskin-lined RAF leather jacket, and accompanying white scarf, you are ahead of the game.
5: Trousers – Jeans, stonewashed (or, if you will insist on going the turtleneck route, black), comfortable, a trifle baggy and under no circumstances, like not even if he had to meet the Queen in a Levi’s shop, are they to be box fresh. A true May wears his denim like a second (quite baggy) skin.
6: Shoes – sensible, conservative shoes in dark colors and possibly suede. The kind of shoes a man would buy if he wishes to send the message that there is more to him than trendy shoes, thank you very much.
Your suggestions are rubbish. The best suggestion is...how to dress as the Eleventh Doctor! BBC America's Anglophenia explained how:
1: Hair – a kind of public school side-parting which has grown out a bit. A floppy mop which can stand a bit of ruffling. If you’ve got it, flaunt it, if not, you’ll need a wig.
2: Shirt – as you’ll see from the picture above, the Eleventh Doctor wears nice shirts. Something that fits quite snugly on your beanpole frame, made of a thick cotton. A light colour but not sparkling bright and white. Something a bit subtle (like this cream shirt here), browny, bluey or reddy.
3: Tie – well we know what the Eleventh Doctor feels about ties, don’t we?
4: Jacket – something tweedy, fitted and of similar length to those sports jackets everyone wore on TV in the ’70s. Brown leather elbow patches optional.
5: Pants – black and tight, ending a good inch above the ankle when the knee bends. Held up with skinny suspenders. Emphasises the storkish legs, y’see.
6: Shoes – either tan loafers or black 18-hole laceup boots (see pic). The Eleventh Doctor’s shoes reflect his need for something practical and a little stuffy, as if he’s a child in a man’s world and doesn’t want to be found out.
Yeah. Being The Eleventh Doctor is cool unless if you're wearing either a fez or a stetson in your head but who's going to dress as the Eleventh Doctor?!
I think it would be me....
(audience laughing)
You know you'll be getting a bit more ridiculous on that. Anyway, enough on that suggestions because we're out of time and on that bombshell, that's the news. Tomorrow, on Halloween Day, dress whoever you wanna be, whatever be. Praise the Lord!
Oh, any speaking of which, for those who are in the UK, has anyone watched the Top Gear James Bond special? It was aired recently. What do you think?
CLOSED!
