Top Gear - new series (spoiler alert)

[rayray086]

Some episodes haven't been up to par with some of their best stuff, but regardless it's still a car show. Axe it and I've got no other car show to watch.

More proof that they've jumped the shark.

They should give it a rest for a year and see if they can come up with something fresh, its getting old and tired. They've gone from that girl who was funny and adorable when you first met to one that is really starting to get annoying doing exactly the same things.

they just need to go back to basics i.e. testing cars!

i enjoy the races and challenges but the stuff like that car chase scene is silly and boring

This must be the mismatch of the century

^ tell me about it. Top Gear Australia was a joke. Glad they gave up on it as it was embarrassing.

On another note, a guy at work just forked out $70k on a FPV GT.....what a waste of money. It will be worth $20k in a few years and falling to pieces.

They do have a supercharged 5.0L V8, I wouldn't be too harsh. Our Fords have been more reliable than the euros too.

Lucas, thats just a stupid comment.

I owned an FPV GTP for 5 years, and was modded up to 385kW, had no warranty claims, nor cost me a cent in anything but standard maintenance schedules.

It came stock with 6 pot brembos, Recaro seats and a MOMO steering wheel.

for $70k I think its brilliant value for money, and I'd challenge you to find to many other cars in this market place that offers that and enough seating for 5 large adults

lol lucas
Aren't cars generally a waste of money.

Agree with gareth_oau
Had an XR6T for 7 years, standard general maintenance with plenty of mods. The only major problem was the heater core.


Top Gear USA have been quite entertaining
