Post by: Eddy Matthews on 21 January 2007, 22:12:14: I still watch Top Gear, but it's nowhere near as good as it used to be years ago..... Now it's all hurling things around racetracks, and cars that no-one but the super rich can aford!

In the good old days they gave honest appraisals of cars that most people could buy - Jeremy Clarkson slagged off Vauxhalls constantly, especially the Vectra, but even if you took what he said with a pinch of salt - He still gave HIS honest opinion, and that I liked!

Post by: Turk on 26 January 2007, 17:06:27: What are the producers of 5th Gear smoking ?
It used to be ok.
Last one I saw, set in a cafe by the looks of it, Absolute pants...and I'll watch any old rubbish.

Trash my ride...or whatever they call it. What's that about ???
...and the presenters "off the cuff" interaction between each item...cringe inducing.

Car crash T.V !!!

There...I feel better now.
