Sorry, I knew that. We're means 'we are' etc. Just a fat finger moment! We all have them.

I'd maybe like to see the occasional bike appear on TG, other that that the whole programme works for me.

It's called 'Top Gear' not 'Camp Gear'.

I think a Buyer's Guide for some of the more desirable classic cars would be an excellent idea. There's only seven shows so i'd suggest;

Jensen Interceptor
Lancia Delta Integrale
Renault 5 GT Turbo
2.8i Capri
Lamborghini Countach
DeLorean
Audi Quattro Sport

Sorted

What the **** is Hammond wearing? Is he in a timewarp from the early/mid 90's? Waist coat and a grandad shirt? Brings back memories from my early days of clubbing

Whether it is successful or not would be up to an audience to decide but with my changes made, it would become a motoring programme again. All that i can say is that I would enjoy it more with these sort of changes. I would be happy if out of a series one or two episodes were off the wall lunacy that it the standard format but it just doesn't make me want to watch it anymore.

The best thing that could happen to TopGear is to lose the filler and take on board the best qualities of Fifth Gear(and possiblely some of the presenters).
