Interior design bit was rubbish and a complete waste of time :/

That was classic, i was crying from laughter, was much better than the new S-Class bit, which was a bit boring going through the features.

I want either amusing challenges and things, or fast lots loud cars.

TripleT · 28 May 2006 at 21:10

See I liked the s-class bit. Very interesting.

It's a car show first, with entertainment thrown in. Recently it's become the other way round though imo

(And no I'm not one of those moaning about affordable cars being featured etc. I just like it to be kept a bit relevant).

That S-Class was amazing, really liked that feature. The custom merc had me in hysterics though. Hammond looked so scared in the drivers seat

Confused · 28 May 2006 at 21:17

Another great episode

The only let-down was the new S Class section - it was a bit boring, too much like old Top Gear/5th Gear - just listing a load of facts

Jeremy's S-Class "cottage" was absolutely hilarious, completely ignoring the "expert", and I was nearly falling off the sofa with laughter at Hampster/Captain Slow driving round in it!

That Caparo T1... :eek:

That looked the business!

And the "Koenigisegissegsegg CCX2 With Top Gear Wing" - damn that was quick, and the wing looked great too, really kept it in line with the styling of the car :cool:

Haha! "Quaint my ride."

Locky · 28 May 2006 at 21:31

that s-class was awsome [i want one] [/me]robsbank

ChroniC · 28 May 2006 at 21:38

I think this show is quite possibly the best tv in the world. The camera angles the cars, the comedy. For an hour a week, i am truely happy.
I want hammonds job.

Luseac · 28 May 2006 at 21:42

I didn't think it was that good this week =/

Just another car review show.

bingham67 · 28 May 2006 at 21:42

S- Class rocks that auto brake :eek:

So the koenniseg did well wit the wind.

You know what this means dont you?

Every fiesta, punto and civic(that dont already) will have enourmous washing boards strapped to them.And with the Fast and the Furios:Tokyo Drift coming out soon, the streets will be crowded with front wheel drive Drifters, ironing boards and graphics.

Agreed, its getting a bit too silly...

All that time with the S-Class "quaint my ride" was just tooo silly...

IMHO

Enjoyed the Cayenne Review... close to home.. hehe

New S-Class looks incredible

Z4M coupe was delicious... far nicer than the convertible, probably lighter and faster as well...

Really good episode, at last! Back on form

The only let-down was the new S Class section - it was a bit boring, too much like old Top Gear/5th Gear - just listing a load of facts

Yea, but it's nice to have a breather and was a good little 'info' bit instead of just pratting about

Nah the ones that arnt are already you just are yet to see them... the truth is out there...

There is too much larking about in this series and not enough proper content. It pains me to say this ... but ... I think I'm actually starting to prefer Fifth Gear. Especially when watched on a PVR so you can skip the ad breaks and fast forward the competition reminders.

I like the way Top gear was a couple of series ago - maybe they've run out of ideas?
