Josh Posted December 21, 2010 Share Posted December 21, 2010 Loved it The hatred towards 'The Stig' was a nice touch. I'd have the SLS too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AJI Posted December 21, 2010 Share Posted December 21, 2010 Very entertaining episode. Its been a long wait. The 458 is growing on me. Each time I see it in the real world instead of still photographs it looks better and better. (That is when its not on fire!) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Each time I see it in the real world instead of still photographs it looks better and better. (That is when its not on fire!) Certainly sounds like an amazing piece of kit; quick shocking looking for a ferrari though, makes the 430 look like a stunner in comparison. must admit that the 911 looks quite boring in comparison to anything sporty these days.

j_jza80 Posted December 22, 2010 Share Posted December 22, 2010 I went into this episode expecting to warm to the Ferrari, but I still think it looks crap, not a scratch on the F430 Scud IMO. The SLS stole the show though, what a fantastic car. One of the nicest sounding V8s of recent times IMO Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ivan Posted December 22, 2010 Share Posted December 22, 2010 I liked the way they got Tiffany Dell to coach the 'star in a reasonably priced car' instead of Stig. Especially as he's working with Ben Collins on 5th Gear. I wonder how long they'll keep up the 'we hate the Stig' malarky though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think Tiff Nedell would be the perfect replacement Stig Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rob Posted December 22, 2010 Share Posted December 22, 2010 Why so much hatred for the Stig then? Because he stitched them up by "revealing" the secret to make a small amount of cash prior to christmas, whereas if he'd have kept quiet, and honoured his contract, he'd have been much better off. The Stig was the brand image for TG, and he ruined all that for his own little slice of pie. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tbourner Posted December 22, 2010 Share Posted December 22, 2010 Who is it then? I thought it was Ben Collins? We knew that about a year ago though didn't we? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stevie_b Posted December 22, 2010 Share Posted December 22, 2010 Who is it then? I thought it was Ben Collins? We knew that about a year ago though didn't we? It's only been officially admitted in the last 2-3 months. I didn't know it was Ben Collins until then. I thought it was several different people, most of whom I expected not to have heard of (I'd never heard of Ben Collins until this row blew up), but listening to a recent Clarkson interview he insisted the Stig was just a single person in any one era.

Thorin Posted December 22, 2010 Share Posted December 22, 2010 Who is it then? I thought it was Ben Collins? We knew that about a year ago though didn't we? Easily. Since before Hammond's crash. Collins was mentioned in reports about the crash but it had been rumored to be him for a while before that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
