In terms of "British things I like", Top Gear narrowly beats out Gordon Ramsay for second place, but ffs I wouldn't be having an orgasm like that fellow did.You'd be dead chuffed if you saw that too, don't lie

wheres that then? doesnt Hammond live somewhere out in the sticks? Clarkson has a place on the IoM and Im sure somewhere near Oxford...we have narrowed you down mate..the hunt is on!!I've seen both Hammond and Clarkson driving around a few times as I live close to both of them, I've never gone mental like that.
just saw this, i think it was a viral advert planned all along by the bbc and not something that happened randomlyUnsurprisingly, they've used this as a the trail for the new series (starting next Sunday)
Yeah I thought this.just saw this, i think it was a viral advert planned all along by the bbc and not something that happened randomly
Top gear used to be good a few years ago when it was a motoring show (and was my favourite show for a while) then it became an entertainment show and lost it's shine.
Clarkeson doesn't like Porsche's because they are Porsches and for no other reason, if they didn't have Porsche written on the back, they'd be best cars ever (which he knows they are but won't admit it).
Hamster can't drive although he knows a lot of interesting facts about cars which he used to demonstrate on Top Gear, but not anymore. He is a Porsche fan though.
May is an alright bloke but I get pissed off that he can get away with saying cock all the time before the 9.00pm watershed but John Lydon is not allowed to say cnut (which is the female version of a cock). Although, he is a Porsche fan. (And its even a banned word on here now )
You can't say that about Clarkson and conceive that if it were any other car, he's praise it. I know lots of people that don't like Porsche. They find their cars bland and boring and thus, they don't get any excitement out of them. Clarkson has never called them rubbish, he just doesn't like them which is fair enough.I've already mentioned Top Gear on a completely different thread. The audience is now full of eye candy, which, while very nice to look at, is not what a motoring show should be all about.
I have watched some very old ones on Dave and they actually gave consumer advice & did 'deal of the week'.

they didnt have may in the first season , the fat bloke had a segment where he talked about getting the best deal ...I've already mentioned Top Gear on a completely different thread.

YouTube - We drove past Top Gear!Awful advert. I'd rather listen to a vuvuzela.
Are you part of the Morris Marina Owner's Club?The challenges are usually quite amusing but I get a bit annoyed when they take perfectly good, often old and quite rare cars and simply destroy them.
Not at all, but there aren't that many left and to keep deliberately destroying them is a shame, they also detroyed a Rover SD1, an Austin Princess, a Dolomite Sprint, some Italian exotica, various Porsches, the list goes onAre you part of the Morris Marina Owner's Club?
I agree with some of Clarkson's rants but he also talks quite a lot of crap. I just get annoyed that the only resaon he doesn't like Porsches is because they are Porches. Having said that he did admit to liking the Carrera GT and various GT3s (I think).He seems to prefer Porsches. Which, y'know, fair play, especially over a Morris Marina, but having a mad-on for Clarkson because he doesn't like Porsches is a bit the same.
and a pink ice cream van wtf?...screams paedo to me!When you kissed Emma Watson, were you nursing a semi?
I was in fairness.When you kissed Emma Watson, were you nursing a semi?
Agreed. She also seemed to get aroused by speed. I love her.True but the bridesmaid was a bit of alright.
I rest my case...I actually have no interest in cars but I'm a Top Gear addict. Great show and great presenters combine to make it a top draw programme. And it's probably the reason that it's the most watched British TV programme outside the UK.
So I guess that's the problem? Car nuts like ou can't get their fix from it? I guess that's a fair enough criticism given that they don't spend alot of time getting into the nitty-gritty, but I have alot of mates who are really into cars but still love the show.I rest my case...
So what exactly is the problem??? You don't like it, watch something else. There's always the cheap rip off version in Fifth Gear. Sure Topgear may be more entertainment based, but Clarkson and co are not shy to tell you when a car is a piece of shit or not worth a penny. Most other motoring shows just try to blow sunshine up the manufacturers arse, and thats what made them standouts in their industy.I rest my case...
Totally agreed.It's not a car show anymore, which is the biggest shame. What I mean is they should concentrate on cars rather than stupidly contrived segments. And I hate Hammond. feck off you Clarkson wannabe cnut.
Hmm...They said that the Maserati was shit in the last one & then said that is the one everyone should buy. Clarkeson thought the Panamera was the best car (and he hates Porsches) the only reason being that he could do lairy powerslides in it, I presume. The general consensus amongst the serious motoring press is that the Panarmera has poor steering feel which, seeing as this is normally a Porsche strength, is dissapointing.So what exactly is the problem???

Let me give it to you this way.
Look at their challenge to find the best driving road in the world. No hesitation to call the Aston Martin a pile of shit on the road, or the needlessly pointless x6. Or for example Clarksons opinion on Porsche that alot of motoring Journo's don't have the balls to say. You can't denote Clarksons Opinion because he doesn't agree that Porsches are the best cars in the world. I for one agree with him in a sense, where they're hardly the most beautiful cars in the world, and it seems like every time they throw out a new car, they take the safe option. They have spewed out 3 cars that for me show what they can really do if they take that risk. The 959, the 911 GT1 and the Carrera GT. And surprise surprise, he's loved all of them....
As a car nut, I enjoy Topgear because it shows what the essence of driving is really about. It does'nt sit behind a veiled curtain, too afraid to tell the world how it is.
Sums it up in a nutshell, but they sell it around the world & it makes a stack of cash for the BBC & the presenters.Totally agreed.
Some of the stunts/tasks they do are quite funny, but I'd much rather watch 60 minutes of proper car reviews.
