I thought that was a good episode, cant understand people on here who slate it all the time, yet seem to always watch..... 
- if you dont like it - dont watch it!
Ferrari F40 0-60 in 3.2 seconds tho? Didnt think it was that fast, but have to agree with Clarkson, its also my fav supercar

got to admit, the enzo looks nice BUT my god, everytime i see an F40 i feel funny. must be the number 1 car - makes the macca F1 look dull.
something about the F40...there really is.
p.s. 0-60 is a rubbish measurement nowadays, esp for a car like this. 3.7 IIRC, nice, but it hits the ton in 8 seconds, 8 bloody seconds!!!

Just as a point of interest. Nick Mason's F60 (Enzo) was in St.Ives Cornwall Early last week, drove past the shop i work in, recognised the no. plate tonight on the show.
I creamed my boxers when that thing drove past me. Not sure if it was Mr. Mason driving though......

The show is too much about JC. I prefer 5th gear (yes, even if it's on untrendy Channel 5).
I hate their dumb **** interpretations on what is cool or not and the audience just look like total muppets agreeing with anything JC says like sheep. It's a motoring w*nkfest for JC and his clones.
Having said that I don't mind Clarkson otherwise.

I don't watch any of these motoring progs regularly anyway these days but 5th gear still do a semi-decent review. Clarkson and his entourage just use dumb analogies every second - if this car was a xxxxx it would be a xxxxx. It does my head in.
I don't want to know what is cool or not from a guy who listens to Bob Seger and dresses like Bobby Ewing.
Just give me the old days of Top Gear, when I was a kid, and cars were reviewed properly by that bearded bloke (father of the dude in Supergrass).

5th Gear is UTTER BOLLUX. Its about 20 mins long by the time you take out the adverts and credits. Then take out the 8 times they harp on about their competition, and you've got about 2 and a half minutes of actual television. utter sh!te.
Oh, and its got VBH in it - YUK, dirty ugly annoying sl4pper
TG is sooooo much better, it makes you laff - FFS, watch it with your brain out - its basically Evo on TV, and thats a hugely popular mag.
They did get the 0-60 wrong though didn't they? The Macca is 3.2 to 60 and thats always had the crown of fastest production car to do it. Have to say though the F40 don't do it for me, I've always been weird and preferred the F50!!!

Anyone else notice the tune from Aliens being played when the bowler raced the kid down the hill?
All the 5th gear **** - why dont you just stick to watching that drivel and quit moaning?
