Lying buggers. Last week, they said it would be on this week - and all the TV guides were saying it would be on as well.

It's a cunning ploy to make us watch Top Gear even though it has now turned to total sh*t.

Cant believe they had that naff Hybrid Insight dogs dinner on - I'm sure that is old motoring news now.

How crap has it gone?

Whats happened to Tiff and VBH screwing cars around Oulton?

Due to the unique way that the BBC is funded...

there is sod-all that you can do about the crap output, and your gotta pay the licence fee even if you never watch the stuff!

... Tho' must admit, the karting and pay-as-you-drive stuff was ok.

...and the 10 second glimpse of the Evo VII. Alfa 147 wasn't bad either -- beautiful, but flawed. If only other companies tried as hard as Alfa with their styling.

Except that bloke who had a go in the F1 car....besides being an F1 fan, didn't look like he could drive none!!!! I think I could have gone round Mallory quicker in my Girlfirend's Suzuki Alto 770cc three cylinder peice of crap

The Nisan Z car looked excellent IMHO, and seems to have a decent spec to match the looks.

There wasn't even much of Vicki Butler-Henderson to look at and listen to, to compensate for rest of the crap that was on last night. Ooh that gruff little voice! ;D

How tedious was that snooker link with the 147? And they didn't even have the snooker ***** setup correctly on the table - how sad is that.

The best thing about the show was the shot of the Nissan IMHO.
