Topgear

[anonymous-user]

Anyone else feel it's past it's best? Because of their model, the news is never current (they just mentioned the bentley gt3r, been out for months, speak like it's new now). Their reviews are simple... A bit too simple for my liking.

Respectively, all 3 presenters are good. I just feel they're held back because of Topgear.

I still watch it for some reason, but I'm close to calling it a day and sticking to the magazines and youtube, and as we all know, youtube presenters (namely Chris Harris) are brilliant.

I think you're 5 years late with this topic.

Couldn't agree more. I can't help watching it but I think it's distinctly average nowadays.

For my tastes there's a bit too much "entertainment", and not quite enough "motoring". There's nothing wrong with having both, but I'd draw the line more to motoring if it were me.

So hopefully that'd mean more in depth reviews/comparisons, and less "lets build an ambulance".

Makes absolutely no sense.

If only this was covered, week in and week out, in the threads relating to Top Gear in the TV subforum - oh that's right, it is

More indepth reviews? Why don't you go and buy What Car? and be done with it. The last thing I want on a Sunday evening is to be told the boot dimensions of a Honda Civic.

It just a bit of fun though.

It's just a family entertainment show, stick to watching your idol on YouTube if it makes you happy.

Gillian Anderson's ageing very well indeed.

For fk sake, this st again? It's an entertainment show on TV, not an in-depth car review program like Chris Harris does which is why he would not suit at all. ENTERTAINMENT.

You mean this small thread?

I think it depends on whether you view it as a program about cars or a program where cars are used to show three idiots pratting about. It hasn't been the former in a very long time and I have no interest in the latter so I've no idea if it's any good from that point of view.

If TG goes, at least we won't have yet another thread about tting the show.

This thread a wind up?

I've found a whole new level of lust for her. Even after The Fall.
