General Car Related Discussion.To discuss anything that is related to cars and automotive technology that doesnt naturally fit into another forum catagory.
tbh I think it is a poor programme, seemed to have slipped into a 'copy topgear, but don't do it as good' mode.
Always felt like it was aimed at school kids who would w*nk the next day over the lambo that was on. Topgear on the other hand felt more adult and just much easier to watch.
the "talent" was tiff and plato, and they've earned big bucks doing other stuff
the other peeps write for top gear amongst other thigns and vbh does that discovery turbo thing
she hasn't aged well though and it got a bit embaressing watching her gigglng like a 5 year old while looking like a 90 year old behind the wheel
i only watched the bits that had the rs turbo vs the gte, the 3dr vs cossie merc, and the rs focus... had to record the show then just watch them bits...couldnt watch the actual prog..hate it..

For once Im in total agreement, although VBH has been acting the schoolgirl for at least 10 years too long and even she seemed to have given up on it at the end. The show was cringe worthy at times and is definitely better off dead, how it survived so long god knows. Plato and Tiff were good at times but it looked dreadful compared to Top Gear with its mega budget.
I imagine these type of shows take quite a hefty budget to make, they do tend to have budgets that they waste on making stupid things like the bedford rascal van etc.
Also, how many presenters do they bloody need for one show?
I don't like top gear or 5th gear they bore me on about car's i will never own and rant there the fastest thing's yet a 20year old cossie say like madrod's will decimate them simply .
im surprised so many are knocking it tho,at least it was another car show and plato and tiff are way better than that twat may....
Agreed, if it was being replaced with something better than fair enough, but it will probably be replaced in the schedule by some shitty reality TV show or another soap opera or something else equally not about cars
