    its not just that review that is a waste of time. I cant remember the last time I watched an episode of fifth gear that I actually enjoyed

    I down load 5th Gear and watch selected segments - thank god for fast forward, I think if it weren't for Jason Plato & Tiff Nedel (spelling?) I probably wouldn't bother.

    Yeah...totally agree. I was disapointed. Personally i'm getting a little sick of "challenges" and the like (especially 5th gear ones). **** Turpin...WTF? I also didn't like how the GTI was compared to the Focus RS and Megane. Clearly they don't understand what the GTI is all about.

    Agreed.It was I that tipped Liam off about this upcoming review and was eagerly awaiting to see it in the hands of Tiff or Jason or even Vicki .(Or was that Vicki in my hands ) . Total waste of time. No shots off the dash, no talk of the new LSD or adaptive suspension. Hopefully Top Gear will be able to do a better review.

    best reviews are from AutoTuning TV, DSF Tv (Motorvision) .. sabine/tim do the most interesting reviews.. finding ones with english subs is hard, understanding german is good tho lol.

    whats to review? its a mk5 refined and a new shell.

    for a car i was looking forward to so much, that "review" was so bad that i'm almost not interested in the car anymore. yes there isn't much to review, but you can do much better than a comparison with a horse!??

    the whole show was substandard imo, even by fifth gear's standards. it's like they were trying to do ridiculous stuff like top gear, but failed miserably. TGA is much better than this...
