it was as crap as ever. pay clarkson whatever he asks for and get him back...and soon! i never liked the irish bloke on driven, like him even less now. has someone ever told him he aint funny or wry? if not, then they should. how much do these dull people actually get paid for this?
the guy who did the mini cooper feature is also dull and anonymous. was it me, or was that feature just a very good free advert for john coopers garage??

VBH is a minger 
, but at least she has some personality. As does Tiff, but the rest of the presenters are lifeless and dull! Tonights was Crap and Dull as ever.
Sorry just an opinion

Anyone notice the stupid "Stunt" that Tiff did with the Elise / VX220.... I know it was tongue in cheek, but they didn't have to show the stationary wheel of the Lotus, in view...... doh! ............ I agree, bring back JC.... and quick

The thing around her kneck was pwobably a wap!
I get all upset when I realise I've missed TG, but every time I see it I forget how crap its become. Bring back Clarky. Even Noel was more than this bunch of boring farts.
Oh and I agree VBH is a bit of a minger!

I don't know why we keep bothering to post about TG....it hasn't got any better in months and it is almost a self-persecution thing to keep reminding ourselves of how poor it has become!
Perhaps it is a cynical ploy by the BBC to dumb down the one and only Car programme they show and eventually pull it off air because of crap viewing figures....Then they can subject us with more of the 'Living in the Iron Age' sh1te that they feel is the best use of our TV Licence money!

At least Tiff had a reasonable length section yesterday. Normally he gets about 30 secs. I just liked his downchanges in the MR2 into that tight right-hander (ok I'm sad..)
And at least VBH wasn't deciding if the latest 15hp Hyundatsu was trendy enough to drive around Chelsea.
But Jason Barlow. Oh dear. Nice man-breasts showing under that dodgy beige affair.
Odd selection of cars in his bit too (the Galant Sport - sheep in wolf's clothing or what...).
And the Mini Cooper is no longer a good car. The year is 2001, not 1968. It does 60 in about 13 seconds and will top out at 90. That is no longer acceptable for a car that costs around £9k.

ZAZ you're right mate, how come on-one else commented on this very important statistic!
Can we have a discount on our Insurance, as we are 'more aware of our speed and therefore less likely to have an accident'
VBH, flat out in the back of a A class, drool!(shame about the car)

Talking of dumbing down the coverage, all those mini-interval/attempts at humour reduce the anount of time they spend doing what they're paid to... analyse and give feedback and info on the cars.
The "Driven 100" format is @rse, as it is only a combination of opinions, rather than being based on any real figures, such as Acceleration Vs MPG, versus list price Vs cheapest price Vs Top speed Vs insurance group etc.
VBH - minger.
That posh bird from about 18 months ago, now we're cooking....
Barlow - not funny on C4 or BBC2
Mini Bloke - where do they find them?
Come back Clarkson and QW, all is forgiven!!!!
