First review I've seen of the mx5 outside of Barcelona. All reviews seem positive so far will be interesting when some special editions start appearing.

All this car stuff is boring, why can't they blow up a caravan?

I suspect you still haven't seen a review of the mx5 outside of Barcelona wink

Still not sure on the looks of this mx5
I quite like the back but the front just doesn't look right. Can't out my finger on it. Its like it's face is too small for it's head.
I fully agree, it's like something's missing
What a sham Alfa Romeo never went ahead with their joint venture with Mazda. That MX5 with a decent 2 litre Alfa Romeo twin cam engine and Italian design style looks. frown

Obligatory 'who's the guest?' Question. Even my teenagers don't know who he is.

Agreed, stunning. Massively better looking than the MX-5 for sure.

Just the 40 films under his belt despite being born in 1989.

Hank from X-men, boy from About a boy, nutter from original series of Skins.

Obviously, as you seem to be 'ON LINE', you could use a SEARCH ENGINE of your choice!!!!

Having them talking crap in your ear for the duration of the race would get properly annoying.

That too close/juddery on purpose camera work was rather annoying

The previous MX5 review was on Dave recently, with Hammond driving it. Has Hammond got first choice on MX5's or are the other 2 not interested? hehe
Probably the only one who would fit in it. Clarkson certainly wouldn't have!

WRX STI vs Golf R next week. More car things biggrin

Episode 8
Top Gear, Series 22

Jeremy Clarkson, Richard Hammond and James May immerse themselves in the world of classics as they attempt to understand the appeal of keeping an old car in the garage for balmy summer days. With Clarkson in a Fiat 124 Spider, Hammond in an MGB GT and May in a Peugeot 304 Cabriolet, the trio take a drive in the country, tinker with their engines and end up at a track day as they try to become true classic car owners.

Also in the show, Hammond pits the Subaru WRX STi against the Volkswagen Golf R on the track and footballing legend Gary Lineker is the Star in the Reasonably Priced Car.

Too much time spent on the hardly known star in a sensibly priced car! The rest was ok tho!
