Sweet
was much mor eimpressed with it after the change over between Cox and James Morrison. Much better, and at least he says that he simply likes cars rather than try to proclaim that he knows lots about them. (like some long haired mullet freak that can go back to the other country he lives and commentates on motor sports in)
'Ah, whatever................'
Hi
I think some of the appeal of the UK show is the exotic locations and in some of those locations they can do things in cars that would have you locked up and your car impounded down here.

At least with the Aussie show the taste of the presenters is a bit closer to mine ... the cool board on the UK show just gives me the &*$%@ 's and they have such a VW phobia.
Give the Aussie one more time and we will love it 😎
Last season I made it one show...this season I will at least make it two shows
First car...74 superbeetle factory rims with VW axle hubs..bought in the Poconos, Pennsylvania
Nup. I'm out. Watched my second episode last night.
The road test between the 2 elfins. YOu dont need to know too much about cars to know that a 2l turbo is going to outperform a 5.7litre V8 when the 2L is 400kg lighter. It steered like a dog. They made a point of saying the trick would be getting the V8 off the line. Well maybe you shouldnt turn off traction control. They made a point about the v8 being the same engine as the HSV and also the corvette! Wow. Both cast iron pushord engines. great. They made a big point about the suspension being developed by the SAME people who work on the HSV cars. wow. How much more credibility do you need than someone who experimented putting different shock absorbers on a taxi.
What on earth was the point of the challenge? To see how long a group of paintballers would yell at a driver? Or to see if a painted mini was more bullet prrof than a commodore with sheets of corry stuck to the outside?
Not to mention the voice and too much red cordial personality of the "hammond" one.
I thought last weeks episode was pretty good but it seems that they have sunk back into their old ways 👎
yeah well I was well sucked in….
I see the prog a few hours earlier than a mate.
so, early in the prog when the low light kombi was wheeled out and it seemed they were going to butcher it, I sent a text to him to tell him to watch the forum for the inevitable reaction.
"trouble" was, they didn’t butcher the kombi and there was no reaction on here…….
PS. any theories why it wasnt cut up.
:thumb
ls1's are all alloy. Show was alright nothing serious , think they should have compared a country buggy to the pommy kit car though.

Tight budget, it probably belongs to one of the film crew.

Looks like there selling it probably trying to fund another half baked episode
Harsh, harsh, harsh ...
I enjoyed it last night as did my boys.
Don't want to see that Clarkson dick&*#d anytime soon myself.
so 0kms KMs then.... sounded more like it had half a million to me
on a positive note it was nice to see an episode with out one of those win a topgear track day with the stig adds
i feel like punching babies everytime i have to sit thro it
When I saw that the Kombi was a low light, I shouted at the TV, "Don't you destroy that low light you **%&$#@s, or I'll never watch you again!!!"
They didn't and they are forgiven.
Why get so upset about the imminent destruction of a low light?
They are becoming too rare and anyway, they are my favourite bay, having driven one called Gus the Bus through Baja California in Mexico, with the Manx Club in 1998.

Maybe you'd be better off sticking to Bold and the beautiful or Neighbours?
this is what they should have used.
