Top Gear

If you’re a motoring fan, you owe it to yourself to check out Top Gear – Monday nights, 7.30 on SBS.  I’ve just finished watching the first episode in this series – fantastic. Nearly laughed myself silly at times.  I want to be a motoring journalist….

    definitely one of the best shows on tv… even if you’re not really into cars you should get a kick out of it.

    All i want to know is where can we get 10 Toyota Aygo’s and a giant soccer ball. Now that looked like fun – and no traction compound or blown speed controls!

    And the repair bill Scott? They didn’t hold back. If they were testing RC cars they would probably drive them flat out into a brick wall just to see how many pieces they could create!

    No doubt its the number 1 show on telly. Saw a couple episodes early last year on pay tv, and was so happy to see sbs start showing it later in the year on free tv. I have always wondered my ideal dream job would be, and its that show. Where else do you get to ‘fire’ a car off a cannon and try and land it on a caravan!

    I’d be going for 6 months doing Top Gear and 6 months doing “Myth Busters”!
