    Bu**er :mad: I missed it too. Caught the last 20 seconds with the two Lambo's in the studio then the credits showing the silver 'S' and thought 'I wonder if that was on the show, I hope not:mad:' and low and behold it was. Bummmmer :dead:

    I was VERY disappointed :disapprove:

    What is it with Top Gear? They never really say anything of interest about the cars. All that happens is you see some twit (usually Clarkson) on the track smoking tyres and looking like they haven't a clue how to drive properly.

    Clarkson should stick to chat shows and they should get Tiff back on Top Gear :) Vicki B-H would be a worthwhile addition to the show as well instead of that big snobby git they've got on there now
    No, no Tiff is crap !!!

    PS I think it is repeated on one of the cable/freeview channels cos someone at work often catches it through the week

    Crap at what? He's a great driver and gives straight forward info about the car. Not like Clarkson - he's just a knob :evil:

    I think the new format for top gear is fantastic, its a programe for car nuts by car nuts, no racing drivers (exept for the stig)and no models just blokes having a toung in cheek look at cars and having a gaff while doing it.
    There are other car shows that are more like the old stye like 5th gear, driven and so on which are also good just not funny.
    So for me its a big thumbs up for the new format.

    Not discussing their driving, obviously Tiff has proved himself, but he's just as opinionated....Clarkson occaisionally makes you laugh if only at him ( when his own car was "borrowed", or the S2000 lost) whereas as Tiff is "I remember when - dashing down to Monte Carlo after such and such race etc....." But none of them compare to the pocket size Richard, even if he cant park a MINI !!
