it's just like every event ever held at the NEC - a big market with stalls and traders selling a load of crap you wouldn't want, apart from for a present for someone you don't like. it's the same load of crap whichever event it is - ideal home, gadget show live, motor show, top gear - same stalls, same cheap crap made in china. there is always one of those rides that look like a star trek shuttlecraft on a stick, which you sit in and watch a low-quality video of someone skiing down a hill whilst the shuttlecraft moves around a bit. if you're lucky there might be some cars.

Didn't it used to be called MPH?

I literally cannot imagine anything worse

do people in britain like top gear? it seems most popular with americans.

 

also, american top gear is unwatchable.

i like top gear. Wouldn't attend the ive show though. That would be rather painful.

from what i've seen it looks rather bland, and the trio always look pretty awkward... but it should give you a few laughs! have fun

i hate top gear. the guys are boring and i couldnt care less about the shitty cars they show and talk about. and the once and awhile kinda cool sports car isn't enough for me to watch repetitively.

its more like a show for people who know nothing about cars so they can pretend like they know something about cars.

This, I'd rather stand outside smoking and occasionally tutting loudly when someone walked in.

i d/l the shows, so whenever they go on one of their contrived competitive missions, like lets beat the 18:00 steam train to glasgow using only hot air balloons and white water rafting, i can blast past. I usually don't watch star in a reasonably priced car, because who cares what actors have to say about anything. So after removing all that i get a neat and tidy 20 minute prestige car review show with big budget camera work. bless.

It really declined ratings wise until the big format change in the mid-2000s, it then became a really popular mainstream show here for a few years but has slowly started to decline again.

today... ... we're going... to... drive a car... through...

 

 

... a man's anus.

What have you people got against ogling hot cars.

 

they're boring

nice car Delet. and i have done that too here and there. it does make the show so much more enjoyable. recently ive found myself enjoying the Mecum Auto Auctions. they always have such interesting cars that you don't normally see.
