not for long, he ends up driving the 'bogey car' cause he didn't check his knocklink often enough and got terrible piston slab.

Me as well, I just coulden't get enough of it. That's maybe because I like watching it though rather than hate it and watch it anyway.

Lst nights was pretty crap. New Landrover was good, and laughed whan Hammond got needle in the eye.
Last weeks was much better, as they reviewed cars

There needs to be another show on that's a bit more grown up. It's all got a bit too silly now, still mildly entertaining but could be more up my street.
That car for an OAP thing for example, why not try it but have a genuine attempt at getting one sorted, rather than just wrecking another vehicle?!?
Did anyone else notice they blurred the car window a few times on the exterior shots?
I skipped the 'star' section again too.
Quite looking forward to the two-part special though.

Fell asleep last night. Put it back on iPlayer and fell asleep again. At least I was getting paid to watch it, as usual.

Pretty crap all in all ........ I can't see it getting any better - just very tired.
Petrolheads are crying out for something decent along the Motoring lines.
Alas, as long as we - you and I - keep paying these three £1 million per show, it just won't change ...... I want them to be paid on results!!!

This week it's the one with the Scooby in - 1st part of a 2 part trek around Africa or something!
Here's hoping it can redeem itself!
