Top Gear Season 14

I am a bit confused. The Lexus was rubbish because its not 3 times better than a Ferrari 599.

But the Bugatti is car of the decade despite not being 7 times faster/better than a Ferrari 599?
 
Yeah the price comment was a bit silly, especially when they compared it to the Nissan GTR, they could **** off pretty much all super cars when comparing it's price:performance ratio to that of the GTR.

Are you serious? You either take all of TG with a pinch of salt or you don't. As you've pointed out time and again when people have said its scripted or they don't review cars properly - its an entertainment show. The only part of cars they review is the top speed and drifting ability.

Thought the show was quite good myself this week... but overal the series was just 'ok'.
 
I really liked how Richard and Jeremy where doing the exact opposite of what they where told to do (the money problem), especially Jeremy who brought his X6 to Australia, Spain, the Alps and China for some unneeded testing.

But the part of James with his Vauxhall was boring, especially when he started interviewing that road signs-woman. Almost fell asleep there :D

Maybe just because the Veyron has the most technology incorporated into the car, and it's the fastest car of the decade (if I'm right).

I enjoyed the ep, all the features were great especially the lexus imo, loved the effects on it, and I was laughing at the x6 review, the star was quite interesting to watch too, shame his lap was a bit boring but then again I doubt I'd do better :p.


Was surprised May said nothing about the insignia's traffic sign reading feature... Considering he talked about them so long with the woman.

Yeah in terms of 'getting to the point'. That's one of the things that the other two guys don't really do.

Agreed.

May is anything but boring imo.

Clarkson makes the show what is as he's a great entertainer and is pretty much always taking the pee. Hammond is by far the worst, all he seems to do is try to copy Clarkson's style and be funny when he's not.

May rules! :)

I quite liked the last episode although I didn't watch the star in the car bit.

I kind of agree when it comes to the studio sections, but as far as car review pieces go Hammond is easily the best IMO. Last nights LFA film, the Gumpert Apollo piece, and the legendary 'I am a driving God!' Bowler Wildcat review spring to mind, to name but a few. Loved the VXR8 review of his too.

I think May does the best reviews. Remember the Japanese 'Roller'? :)

In your eyes, is the LFA worth 3 times the prices of the 599?
