top gear

[shawy]

anybody watch top gear tonight and what did you think of it...best was the food mixer whats yours

[wilksey]

Mate.

I was in stitches with the food blender. Good idea thought lol.

And when they where making the renault faster at the end!

"Back to the studio!"

Never fails to make me laff.

[Tupps]

Was class how much of a difference the suspension made!

Also the V8 blender was mint

[evans1089]

they spent all they money lol

the suspension was what? 2.5k did they say? that gave 6.5k for a turbo and nos... easily done that... imo

[---RoBsTeRz---]

defo the food blender!!!

Classic! :P

[shawy]

did'nt they spent there money on some alloy's and too sets of tyers

[Darlo-paul]

Yeah they bought the first pair and they made it slower so spent a further £600 and bought track tires I think.

[Pieface]

They spent 3k on Brakes
2.5k on Suspension
£600 on wheels and tyres
£600 on more tires
I think 3k on the engine stuff
Something like £5.2k on Car
About £20 probably on Splliter
Seats, free from other cars

That sounds like it is it.

that spllliter was mint..

[Pieface]

Aye. Loved the Ambulance right behind it.

Did anyone else notice that they were being lazy though? The editors. When they showed Stiggy racing with the buckets in, on the outside shots he had the buckets on, but it went into an interior shot they were leather seats he was sitting on...

[Fruitbooter]

Thought this eppisode was great.

Loved the blender :cool:

Although I think the money for the Renault project could have been better spent.

Brakes didnt have to be that fancy? although I do agree quite a decent set were needed.

3k on engine work? Seems a bit extreme for a skimmed head and inlet?

Also I would have just used nitrous like Clarkson said originally!

[shawy]

no but well spoterd

[alextoffie]

they should have absolutely stripped that renault out to death

couple of seats

good suspension , lower profile tyres

and then either turbo it or nos

think it would have done a lot better then tbh

if they stripped it fully the brakes would probably be good enough with the lower profile tyres and better suspension... there's a lot of heavy shit in those that can just be taken out

[Sammy-Boy]

that spllliter was mint..

It was mint but set the car on fire

[VTR-Chris-VTR]

Food blender was funny made me LOL! that Renault Aventime or w/e it is i found looked mint with them Team Dynamics on :y: sounds lush aswell tbh

[TU-Tuning]

should have bought a mini and spent 9k on that tbh. Coilies, bike engine. Would have killed an evo

[Yates]

should of slammed it 60mm and stuck black vts wheels on imo

[Mark51]

lol @ the blender, im sure the neighbours would love me if i had one of those.

However, Top Gear is meant to be a car program and imo its gradually becoming more and more of a chat show. Don't get me wrong itsstill good and does make me chuckle but they seriously need to go back to raging cars round the track and comparing every day cars like they used to

i do agree with that, there is the funny bits but still bit too much chat and bits like that, lets get some more proper challenges in again!

[jonnysamol]

I noticed that!

Yeh a mini would have killed the evo but the whole point was that the producers picked the car!
Ive never seen one in real life tbh!

[mini-dan]

it was well good! the Renault chalenge is goner be funny

[Ben_L]

Should have added an ebay superchip, lexus lights, and an MDF boot build. would be job done then ;) :y:

[Ashleyp]

they didnt strip it very well..i saw door cards and dash still in the car, plus all the other stuff

they could have done a lot better imo, but it doesnt seem to be really about the cars now - just all out entertainment

would have loved to have seen a saxo for them to mod though ;) allthough they would have probably not done a good job

[Tupps]

I hope they do a V8 stairlift lol

[Robb]

The blender really didnt excite me.

But I do love Mark Wahlberg.

[Luke]

Not watched it yet, going to iPlayer it tonight.

[shieldy]

all the local chavs going to be using mdf to make bodykits next cos they saw it on top gear haha,

[turnip]

just watched it on iPlayer ( busy at work but can't be arsed tbh).

MINT

I think it's pretty evenly balanced between cars and entertainment now tbf, they will do the classic challenges they always do.

Do not be swayed away from Top Gear!lol 12 seasons don't arrive by being a crappy show so i doubt they will go downhill now

[Saxo_theedge]

Aye. Loved the Ambulance right behind it.

I noicted that, Top gear nerds :y: lol


Thought it was a good show, although agree with the comments about it needs to be a bit more of a car show than a chat show.

When they interviewed Mark wahlberg, although a cool actor, wasnt really car related, dragged on abit i thought.

And richards shirt on the news part, what the hell ? lol

[Pieface]

I loved that question on that Chair, "Are you going to make a bigger one for fat people"

And "I don't have the heart to say it to him but we have these back in England, there called Wheelchairs."

[EssexHoney]

I thought the blender was funny, Mark Walhberg was good.

Cant believe no-one has mentioned Mika Haikonnen even though that wasnt really the best part of the show (think i just answered my own question), but watching James in a rally race was quite entertaining.

[ne_jam]

any body notice it had a twin exhuat on to start with vxr tips then at the end was changed for a different one ?

[Slammed_Posi_Vtr]

any body notice it had a twin exhuat on to start with vxr tips then at the end was changed for a different one ?Yeah i noticed that, but at one point clarkson did say "with my exhaust" but it was pretty quiet and they didnt cover it very well at all, they are missing vital motor information to replace it with "witty" one liners etc, poor show on that one.

[markl]

thought the renault feature was pretty good. deffo could of spent the money they had better. stripping is free and all they removed was seats and changed the glass roof panel to perspex which the taped on by the looks of it!

agreed, R1 engined mini ftw!! with a good supsension and brake set up on it would of cained tha evo round the track i reckon!!

[xbabii_gurlx]

loved the food blender was funny and back to the stuido lol would love to be on that show they have so much fun x

[Ruka]

Anybody else wonder what you do in Honda's chair car if it starts raining?

[Ashleyp]

Yeah i noticed that, but at one point clarkson did say "with my exhaust" but it was pretty quiet and they didnt cover it very well at all, they are missing vital motor information to replace it with "witty" one liners etc, poor show on that one.

got to agree

i was looking forward to them showing more of the mods

instead they show a shitty spoiler which anyone with half a brain cell could see wouldnt work
