I know it hasn't actually been on yet, but as it seems fashionable to knock TG now Chris Goffey has gone, I just thought I would get in there first :hehe:

Chris Goffey! Haven't heard that name in years, that's going back a bit for sure.

These new presenters are rubbish, there's never anything new, brng back that Tony bloke with his funny little cap, allways going on about rallying.

Wouldn't a whole hour of anorakesque reviews be a tad tedious though? Just a thought...

Anyone know the name of the dance tune that was playing during part of the Monaro test drive ?

Sounded a bit like Faithless' 'We Become One', I definitely have it somewhere.

Another fun episode...

This motoring magazine program has to appeal to all, not just us pure petrol headed folk...

Fantastic episode. Great entertainment.

I've got a lot more respect for the D1 drivers, shame it isn't more popular in the UK.

Same here I used to think the drifters were a dodgy pop group.
I'd still rather have a cerby than a monaro, my frontera and sri 130 have put me off anything with a vauxhall badge.(Mrs raf dug didn't know what the corsa was she just wanted a gold car).

I especially enjoyed the part where he just dropped the BMW 3 on the floor. Quite true, from the back the new 3 looks like an anonymous Korean (or suchlike) box, bit like the Reasonably Priced Car in fact.

I could never put my finger on what was wrong with the new 3 series, but now i know its just bland.

I have to say that yes, I thought it was a bit pants. I think they'd make it to uncool on my cool wall.

I don't know if it's the audience participation, or that Jeremy can't be ar$ed to actually get out beyond Oxfordshire and do a proper story.

It just seems to me like a five minute gem, padded out with 55 minutes of pap.
