Will it be as irritating as previously? It's still better than Eastenders/Coronation St etc..

[oobster]

Still got that tt Tim Shaw on it, so i'll Sky+ it and FFWD through all the crap bits as usual.

[Shaw Tarse]

Thanks for the heads up, I'll recordit & fast forward the crap bits

[Hairspray]

Looks pretty crap this week tbh.

[EDLT]

The loop the loop stunt had its own special episode on a couple of weeks ago, it wasn't as life-or-death as they will make it out to be.

[V8mate]

Has a feature on whether buying a banger is ever economic - could be good.

So often, they take a good theme and waste it though




[Still prefer it to TG though; at least I see some cars I recognise on it]

[PurelyRetro]

When is it repeated?

[Blukoo]

Don't know, but its on in 2 minutes.

C**p so far.

If that's the best banger they could find for £200 then they should be ashamed to call themselves car journalists.

Same old tosser presenters. I can almost forgive them for the fat hairy one, but the R8 and bangernomics pair need to learn to shave, and take a good look in the mirror .... You're not clever or funny!!!

I can forgve the guy who drove the R8. Only because I'm sure if I gave him a bag of appropriate parts he could fix a car.

The other 2 cocktards should be dragged out and shot to put them out of their misery.

Cheers for the heads up, I had no idea it was starting tonight. Just looked on my HTPC and it has recorded it for me without prompt so I shall watch now

I agree

[XitUp]

I wish Tiff and VBH would shoot Clarkson and the midget, then steal James May and the Top Gear production team and make a semi decent car show.

p.s. look at that 's shoes, how old is he?

[adam85]

Incredibly annoying bunch of individuals indeed... shame really as things like that loop the loop were enjoyable to watch.

[sniff diesel]

Loop the loop was pretty cool though.

Can't believe they only gave up 5 minutes of the show to the loop-the-loop!

[RJB_666]

Got to say the race/challenges between Plato and Tiff are always good if nothing else. Could do with making a bit more of, could have done with a head to head race with those two cars. Same with 'Crazy Dave' vs Tiff. Wish they would have made better use of having him on the show, better cars and head to head racing(i know i have a pattern emerging here but i like my wheel to wheel racing ) Good circuit choice though.

Next week Stirling Moss, just hope he will be driving the car as well.
