imi Posted May 29, 2006 Share Posted May 29, 2006 Bloody hell... Isnt 5th Gear a poor imitation of Top Gear.... Indestructable Merc > copy of the Toyota Hilux Top Gear did years ago. The Lap Time Board 5th Gear website survery > Top Gear Survey And have u all noticed that they no longer review that many cars anymore, they're trying to turn the program into an hours worth of entertainment, TopGear managed to do it, and did it very well...these guys - sheer boredom.

wkdtime Posted May 29, 2006 Share Posted May 29, 2006 Yeah i noticed that too, even the tint effect they put on the cameras, and the music they play in the background. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pig Posted May 29, 2006 Share Posted May 29, 2006 I wouldnt mind. But leave the ferraris to top gear and do some affordable supra's Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rayman Posted May 29, 2006 Share Posted May 29, 2006 ZZZ i used to prefer it before when they just reviewed cars, VBH is the only thing worth watching and even she wears too many clothes! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SupraStar 3000 Posted May 29, 2006 Share Posted May 29, 2006 the Jap garage party thing was ok. Looks like Japan has Chavs too Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wkdtime Posted May 29, 2006 Share Posted May 29, 2006 guys the ferarri 599, looks some what similar to a de spoilered supe from some angles, and the curves are still the way:D Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bobbeh Posted May 29, 2006 Share Posted May 29, 2006 Agreed, but Tiff opinions are far more stomach-able than Clarksons. Why they have to destroy the cars for entertainment is dumb anyway. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

peter richards Posted May 29, 2006 Share Posted May 29, 2006 richard hammond what a plank , clarksons puppet , fucking hate top gear and the twat with the 50s hair do , say no more Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mike M Posted May 29, 2006 Share Posted May 29, 2006 The only thing i like about 5th gear is watching Tiff Needles (summit like that) throwing the cars around. Superb driver. Anyone remember when he was on TG with the others in a focus doing 360's at silly speeds? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ian Ian Posted May 29, 2006 Share Posted May 29, 2006 Yeah me too Top Gear is good 5th Gear is not a patch on it ....apart from Tiff driving the guy is a driving God at drifting !! Cheers Ian Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cheers Ian I do like his driving style and ability....although the Stig makes up for most of it on Top Gear. Sometimes Tiff is an annoying Twat though.......really up his own arse...with stupid comments referring to Top Gear....("proper drivers on this show unlike the other one").

Kittyclaws Posted May 29, 2006 Share Posted May 29, 2006 ZZZ i used to prefer it before when they just reviewed cars, VBH is the only thing worth watching and even she wears too many clothes! Not wrong there matey, I think she should hand her notice in and move to Top Gear,,, and maybe that german bird too, thats been on Top gear a couple of times Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pete Posted May 29, 2006 Share Posted May 29, 2006 I felt embarassed for the presenters tonight. VBH sinking the Merc was just pathetic. TG is good for entertainment value, but they really could do with featuring maybe at least two cars in an episode. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TG is good for entertainment value, but they really could do with featuring maybe at least two cars in an episode. See thats the thing. TG is what it is. Some people like it, some people dont. I agree that there should be a programme on telly thats a bit more foccussed on reviewing the cars, technology, etc.....one would have thought that void was going to be filled by 5th gear - as it turns out...perhaps not...reason for that could be that the public prefer TopGears style of entertainment, surely it attracts a wider audience...so why change a winning formula.
