alessandro Posted January 30, 2011 Share Posted January 30, 2011 Loved the Ferrari, everything else was average, I prefer when they do proper drive out challenges Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fodder Posted January 30, 2011 Share Posted January 30, 2011 It was intersting to see the 599GTO as a friend has that on order but the California he has is awesome, you feel the sound! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AK350Z Posted January 30, 2011 Share Posted January 30, 2011 Enjoyed it, not overplayed, just a good fun episode. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BulletMagnet Posted January 31, 2011 Share Posted January 31, 2011 Sadly, Clarkson is rather unimaginative when it came to the review of the GTO. If anybody has seen the video "Clarkson - The Italian Job", then you'll notice that he uses the same review nigh on word for word, even the "Not now Kato!" statement. Did enjoy the Top Gear Ashes tho Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rob d Posted January 31, 2011 Share Posted January 31, 2011 now that was proper top gear. tests, fast cars, sillyness, and some damn good driving. anyone notice how low hammond was sat in the rally car to make stig look taller ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rtbiscuit Posted January 31, 2011 Share Posted January 31, 2011 i thought it was a good show, loved the rally cars, not impressed with the GTO; thought the Aussies had a good sense of humour about it all as well. that white van was insane Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Daryl Posted January 31, 2011 Share Posted January 31, 2011 Anyone want to argue that the new Stig is Antony Davidson? The 599 is epic. I saw it at Goodwood last year. Yes its not a GTO in the traditional sense,but its as close to the 599 FXX as you can get. Ferrari said to Evo that you will not go consistently faster without using the TC etc. I dont know if thats a good thing or not. But as im never going to be able to own one,im not that fussed! As much as i like JC,i dont think hes a great driver,and if you gave that car to someone more skilled,i think the review may have been slightly different.

Wasso Posted January 31, 2011 Share Posted January 31, 2011 I've gota be honest and say I'd have a stab at Marko Martin doing the Rally section. He does tuition for Subaru in the UK and being a WRC fan I just had a strong feeling it was him. It would make sense to plant a Rally Driver in the car. The transit was insane. You could tell something wasn't right by the wheels and aftermarket dials on the dash, but still it kicked arse! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
350ash Posted January 31, 2011 Share Posted January 31, 2011 I've seen the transit at Goodwood before, it set one of the fastest times of the day up the hill. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ebized Posted February 2, 2011 Share Posted February 2, 2011 anyone notice how low hammond was sat in the rally car to make stig look taller ? You will find in any serious rally car the navigators seat is as low as possible to help reduce the cars centre of gravity, together with the switchgear and anything else that can be re-sited. Some navigators can barely see out the windscreen and side windows they are so low So even Clarkson would look small alongside the Stig in the car - probably the very reason he was not in that sketch apart from pooping his pants .

geoff-r Posted February 2, 2011 Share Posted February 2, 2011 http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/entertainment-arts-12338053 I had to laugh, classic Top Gear. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
