The Raven Posted December 29, 2010 Share Posted December 29, 2010 yes yes all well and good but hes defecting to 5th gear :O as if telling everyone who he was wasnt bad enough hes just kicking top gear in the balls now Who cares, isnt like he killed anyone is it. He was probably paid less than half on the boffons on that show that couldnt drive half as well as him, hell i would have done the same Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nic Posted December 29, 2010 Share Posted December 29, 2010 His first car was a Honda CRX, the first car I bought was a Honda CRX, I must be the Stig http://www.randomonics.net/randomcrap/stig-emoticon.png Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Project Blitz Posted December 29, 2010 Share Posted December 29, 2010 "But I have just started a job at 'Fifth Gear' on Channel Five, and I'll be presenting on that from now on." he lost against Tiff & Plato in the Verses challenge http://fwd.five.tv/fifth-gear/videos/dogfights/triple-header-dogfight-part-one Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They may have 3 top drivers, but they still don't have any top presenters, and that's where they will always come up short vs Topgear.

Ibrar Jabbar Posted December 29, 2010 Share Posted December 29, 2010 Yeh they do a 4 motion version, the Transporter is a much better van than the Vito. The other good thing is wheel choice you can fit Range Rover and X5 wheels which are ideally load rated for the van, I have 22's on mine Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He was probably paid less than half on the boffons on that show that couldnt drive half as well as him, hell i would have done the same If you believe the D**ly M**l (and who doesn't?), his pay was even less than that. Their guesstimate was an annual salary of about £70,000. I don't think the other three really count as boffins. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He couldn't even get a 370Z sideways! His not the stig!!! Plus he doesn't seem to be cut out to be a presenter. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
