Well that was a bit dull tonight!...I mean we only got a few minutes of VBH. Oh and that Fiat??? ...It pains me to say but 'Drivel' is by now a superior program and 'Men & Motors' has better content! not that I watch it of course!!!

I thought the MG range looked alright if a little max powerish, All the wheels looked like they were from the TSW range.

Question

I'm sure I heard the MG guy say they were planning to drop a V8 into the Rover 75 - did I hear that correctly? If so, which V8??

Unhappy

As much as I want to support MG Rover two words keep echoing around my head everyime I think of an MG saloon.

Montego - Metro

Top gear is pants since "Jezza" left, Quinten Wilson is o.k. but everytime I hear his name I think of a butler. Tiff Needell is good when he's blasting around and thrashing the **** of a car and cute little Vikki Butler-Henderson (Grrrr....) what more can I say.

I put Men & Motors on the other night to watch a program about Cabriolets and was shocked when it wasn't the program I was expecting, Naked ladies all over the place.
I think it was called "Topless Beauties"

Is there a VBH appreciation society ??

The 375bhp Rover 75 will be powered by a supercharged 5.0 litre V8 from the Ford Mustang.

Sounds quite interesting.

Cheers,

Alex

The thing I found interesting was the color and wing on the X10 (the blue car)

hmm, that wing design looks familiar, shouln't it have a P1 log on it

Guess I'd expected as much what with Peter Stevens doing the design work on it.

Must say that the V8 option sounds interesting. RWD though? that'll be fun, maybe they should consider AWD for such a beasty.
