What a crock of shite this program was. Watched it for about 15 mins and had to walk away.

I wish someone on these programs would show a genuine opinion rather than spouting the stereotypical stuff "Oh yes the DB5, possibly the most beautiful car ever built, it did 150mph..." "Oh yes the Mercedes Gullwing, just perfect, perfect lines, you are in awe of it when you see one."
