merckx Posted January 12, 2009 Share Posted January 12, 2009 Some of it might be worth watching. Tiff Needell casts his eye over the new Porsche 911 and Olympic swimmer Mark Foster tries out a Vauxhall VXR8. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Aero-M Posted January 12, 2009 Share Posted January 12, 2009 The new 911 didn't look much different, apart from those stupid led lights in the front bumper. Did any one else think the look trash? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jevansio Posted January 12, 2009 Share Posted January 12, 2009 Must say I prefer Plato, Needel, & Henderson over the 3 muppets on TG, it's the other 3 numpties on 5th Gear that let the show down Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AndrewOW Posted January 12, 2009 Share Posted January 12, 2009 So you wouldnt have a turbo one? Yeah they might be great driver's cars, but I just think they are so boring to look at, and they sound like a beefed up Beetle IMO. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Alex Posted January 13, 2009 Share Posted January 13, 2009 Indeed good to see you can get respectable mpg but it was a yawn to watch. Fwiw, in the US there is a target for new cars to hit 35mpg or the manufacturers get a fine proportional to their level of failure to hit the target. Mercedes got the biggest fine last year shock horror, due to having so many cars in it's range with thirsty engines. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
