Oh crap. I can't stand Harris.

[Looket]

But his Youtube business model is outdated and he needs to become more like Schmee! No money in producing low-frequency quality stuff these days.

Oh, wait.

[cjs racing.]

If Harris is presenting, I'm not watching it.

[Axionknight]

Not a fan of his presentation style tbh - it's a "meh" from me.

Coulthard will make it a yawn fest.

Yup and if it says "effects handling in the braking phase" I may scream

[Megaflow]

I shall have to watch it just for Sabine...

[KrazyIvan]

Coulthard and Harris.................Sorry fell asleep for moment there, yes Harris and Coul....zzzzzzzzz......zzzzzzzzzz.

[PositronicRay]

Depends how they play it.

Chris Harris knows his stuff and the car market
Sabine has some personality
David C a bit dull but knows how to drive

We'll see, but I'm not excited.


Seems I mistook Chris Harris for Harry Metcalf.

So

Chris Harris ??????????????????????
Sabine.............Personality and telly genic
David C.............I'll stand by my "he knows how to drive.........a bit"

I'll watch, but think it'll go down the pan quite quickly. Happy to be proven wrong though.

Well done Chris.

I enjoy his youtube videos and think he'll be enjoyable to watch on Top Gear.

[TheEnd]

Hooray!

Now we can look forward to more features that start with 7-8 panning cut shots of the exterior of a car, followed by it drifting round a corner in a cloud a tyre smoke.

Top man Monkey!

Prediction: Porsche to win group test every single week then.

[Mr Roper]

Good luck to them all.

[tyrrell]

Fantastic news, at last someone who knows about cars

[RVVUNM]

I've got a great idea............. Let's all watch it and then make our minds up if it's any good........Who's in?

[gmaz]

Old top gear worked because it was presented by very knowledgeable motoring journalists. New top gear should go the same way and Chris H is very much a step in the right direction.
