Evo car of the year

[akita1]

Heads up chaps Evo car of the year on ITV4 on Tuesday/Wednesday 22nd and 23rd December 8pm.

Will be interesting to see how this translates into the tv format. Some of the guys (Bovingdon and Catchpole) are pretty good in front of the camera but John Barker and, to a slightly lesser extent, Richard Meaden can seem quite awkward. Anyway, it's an interesting selection of cars and no doubt the camerawork will be high quality so I'll be tuning in.

Thanks for reminding me!

Dare say it will be better than the last 10yrs of Top Gear.

What 911 is winning this year? Ahhh 911 Turbo S he's just mentioned

So far, lots of slo mo shots, bad guitar work and the same 4 people giving their opinions on what .they think will happen....

Im waiting until the feature the tarmac, and what car they think will best match the tarmac. It feels very contrived

[blueST]

Dragging it out a bit already. Just drive the cars

There's a Cayman GTS there too though. The Yaris is getting mentioned a lot in the intro.

Chatter and intro, no driving yet

[Gameface]

fking dull...

[Gameface]

First half hour has been a waste of time really. Can only get better!

[ajprice]

You can tell that most of them write about cars and not talk about them to a camera...

There may be a surprise this year.

Talking about Golfs and Morgans while driving the Porsche is just weird.

Barker got the BHP of the Ferrari wrong there.

I’ll guarantee they will all get something wrong when it comes to the Yaris. I’m yet to have seen a review including catchpole that has been fully accurate.

46 minutes thus far of various cars slo-mo drifting around Anglesey. You learn more in the first 46 seconds of a Harry Metcalfe vid.

I only caught the last 30minutes but as it was the sift expected lots of short clips.
