On an aside, was some of that material unsuitable pre-watershed?

I watched it with my daughters but all the talk of F1 sex aids and Hammond declaring he had an erection driving the tank seemed inappropriate, for the time of night?

Or is it contrived, to get complaints, to increase viewing figures from those curious?

Can’t say I thought it was offensive.

I’d always assumed any with 2 had been ‘modded’ to be as such.

It’s one of those scene ‘euro look’ mods I reckon.

I didn’t say offensive, I said inappropriate or unsuitable.

Yet.

As far as I know VW didn’t ever supply their cars with a badgeless grille. That front end has been modified.

There’s a difference between inappropriate and offensive.

I find your inappropriate comment offensive.

😉

I resemble that remark!

Sorry my mistake. No I didn’t find it inappropriate or unsuitable.

Ooops! bad example I missed that. 😳

In fairness, Top Gear has never really been offensive, other than to anyone’s sense of humour.

Clearly been lowered too, and non standard wheels.

I’ve never been aware of a pukka GTI with 2 headlights as standard, the “Driver” non-GTI version also had 4, I’m reverting to ‘modded to be as such’, probably by sticking a ‘GTI’ badge on a normal one!

just watching from the start, the SRi wasn’t even the quick one, that was the GSi.

just like the SR was the one down from the GTE

Saw the last 5 mins of it just before 8pm tonight while waiting for something good to come on.
After seeing this thread last night I saw the split in opinion coming a mile off.
Haven’t read all the posts but have to say after watching that 5 mins, Clarkson & Co are just a bunch of dicks getting paid loads of money (no, I don’t know their salaries) to play around like kids…annoying and won’t watch again.

Those three playing around like kids and annoying you, probably paid to make the less popular program you were waiting to watch.

Hope that helps ease your pain 😉

He doesn’t say he’s in pain.

Star in a reasonably priced car next week is Michael Gove, being chased by angry school teachers in overley priced cars as usually feature on TG.

Episode 2 starting soon, and soon after a torrent of abuse about the show.

Yup just going to walk the dog then prepare for the people that hate Top Gear to watch it again so they can moan about it.

100!

Yep I’m settling in now with my note pad and pencil

I could watch something else, but don’t want to miss out on being annoyed.

Hahaha!

Shhh! Must concentrate.

I thought it had already been on today, luchtime BBC2?
😀

I want one of those…….

Yup that’s what i was going to type plus be on Lake Como with it.

The Bastards.

Oohhh, they’re having a race!
That’s original.

Must be a repeat though, Hammond looks young – something to do with his hair?

that is the most awesome vehicle i have ever seen . . . .

He said vagina!
And made a joke about his knob!!!

They really are worth the licence fee on their own, aren’t they?

FFS RS, stop watching it or stop bitching, it’s a simple choice!!

Also Top Gear makes the BBC more in selling to other countries and merchandise than it costs to make, so yes it is worth the licence fee as it helps to fund other BBC stuff like Radio 6 Music and other stuff which you may or may-not like!!

Am I not allowed to comment?

In work at the mo, looking after a chap with severe learning difficulties.
It’s his favourite prog after Power Rangers and Tracy Beaker.

Am I not allowed to comment?

Comment if you must, but your comments are nearly as predictable as a top gear race! I presume your meant to be working so go and do something useful instead of bitching on here!

Surely you of all people should be able to recognise the joy top gear brings to those of a limited intellect 🙄

The only thing more predictable than an episode of Top Gear

Blimey if I found out any my staff had been posting on forums whilst looking after a patient they’d have a bent lug.

He’s dozing on the sofa.
I’ve cleaned the house, cooked his supper, administered his meds and done all the paperwork.

I’m sat down having a brew before I get cracking again.

If that’s ok with you?

And he’s not a patient, he’s not ill 😀

am liking that mclaren p1 a lot 🙂

RS seems to be getting pretty good value from the show tbh

So how much did that pirelli line earn him then after last year’s issues?

I like cars.

I just wish there was a decent motoring programme on regularly.

Hahaha I read that as Breathing Difficulties. 😳

Sorry.

That P1 is some piece of engineering.

I saw a P1 on the M3 today. Very pretty.
