Default Top Gear Total utter Crap!

What has happened to top gear..............Why do they make the 3 wa**er presenters look stupid, what happened to reviewing cars the proper way.

Take tonight...... Who wants to watch them build a limo, total utter crap.

Just seen them do two Dyno runs take it they don't know about transmission losses. Think they need a bit of education.

This season, topgear HAS changed from what made it so good. I don't really call streching 3 crappy cars, entertaining.

I thought that rolling road usually came with an office fan!

Not exactly the best RR I have ever seen...

Oh and the show has me in stitches. OK its not all new car tests anymore but the viewing figures are massive and its got more women into cars than ever before.

I hate to say this but, I agree.

It is a bit like an Enid Blyton boys will be boys story.

I'm not saying it wasn't funny, but laying tarmac, ploughing a field and making 3 limos out of ****e car's, is not why most people tune in to topgear. They are trying to make the show more appealing to the general public at the expense of alienating their regular 'petrol-head' fans.
The only episode I really enjoyed this season, was the american road trip. But even then, you never know how much of it is setup.

It wasn't an instruction, more of a suggestion, but never mind.

I will leave to argue with Tom Dick and Harry on internet web forums. Enjoy.

Bloody hell are we going to have these threads after every single episode? Still, at least I suppose we won't get any more of them now until the summer!

Girls, Girls please.

We are all entiteled to our opinions without getting personal.

The Boys bit is getting a bit overdone. Caravan last series Tarmac, Limosines this series etc.

To me, the whole point of Top Gear is to offer impartial advice on new cars and, help us, (if we are interested ) make a judgement about buying a new motor on the Market.

Let's not lose sight of this.

Topgear has ALWAYS been about new cars, not brainic stuff.
Its a shame because there are 3 bl*ody good presenters that are being wasted on pointless 'crowd drawing' stunts. Not very professional and is certainly not what topgear has been about for the past 5 years.

You may have a point,but I'm thinking that perhaps this series had to be cobbled together and padded out a bit due to whatshisnames accident.
