Watched the rest of it now.
:lol: at the thread title now :lol:
(But also :( )

Really good episode though TBH - all of it. Great films, all the extra presenters were great and all the studio stuff worked much better 8-)

Yes I cannot see what everyone complains about.

Its good.

I think everyone hates Chris Evans because that's what people want people to do. Social sheep. I like the guy
He's entertaining and good at hjs job.

I like how the show was split into films like old old skool topgear.

They need to get an epic challenge under their belt and that will get everyone interested again.

I simply just haven't caught any yet. I'll definitely give it a go when the opportunity arises.

I noticed they did the drag race in the wet with 4wd vs ctr and 50-75bhp more...not surprisingly it lost

Agreed. Not real world at all. Maybe if they did a 30mph rolling start the results would have been different.
I know the torque curve on the go is allot better and carries on up top.

The best show so far must admit best bit was Sebine against machine and Evans throwing up after

No contest powerwise between focus and civic so not surprised it loist but personally I would choose the Honda before the ford

Watched it and enjoyed it along with the last 2 shows,people should just quit the moaning and move on.
I always liked Chris Evans from the TGIF show and Dont Forget Your Toothbrush and all the rest i just never placed him as a car enthusiast let alone a carshow presenter especially on Top Gear but the old crew presenting there was alot of dust on them.
The Civic didn't get a chance it was all Focus driven and they are great cars in their own but even i was leaning towards the Focus after the shot,probably as price per pound with what you get and it just seemed more appealing of the both.
And as the review said the Civic took to long to get out there and now has aged a little.
If i was in the market for either i would be test driving after test driving but it would kill me to pass the H brand for a substitute but how many chances do you get to own cars like these from new?
The Mercedes was probably not suited for comparison to either but if the company are trying this sector i'm sure it was all endorsed.
If you's want to watch a bad Topgear show you should try the Aussie version that was knocked on the head a little while ago :ugeek:
Me i just like cars,presenters do help but hopefully the cars will do the talking :lol:
The TDF Ferrari and Audi R8 were good to watch too but that fella in the old Mustang tearing around London was awesome,reminded me of Getaway in Stolkholm,classic!
