    New Top Gear 2013

    Here it is again

    The P45 had my whole family laughing. Not just laughing but in tears, made even better by knowing everywhere they were in Bramley, Shalford, Guildford and onto the A3. Both kids going "look, it's Debenhams" or "Thats the Seahourse"!!

    Worst part of the show IMO. I found it vaguely amusing but, as with all things Clarkson, it went on too long and the time would've been better spent going into a bit more depth on the Huayara.
    You're so beige, you probably think this signature is about someone else.

    I nearly watched it, but opted to watch 'The Hotel' instead

    Amusing, but yes, went on too long.

    and the time would've been better spent going into a bit more depth on the Huayara.
    Nope, supercar tests are by far the most boring part. So it can go fast, I don't care.

    I have to say I enjoyed it all alot.

    I thought it showed just how hard being a co driver is.

    I thought the P45 was great. Having seen quite a few of the reruns over Christmas I had forgotten how old they were getting.
    I still exist and still find the forum occasionally. Busy busy

    The speed impresses me but TBH the thing I like about the supercar reviews is more the statistics and the engineering side. Watching them go sideways is crap but seeing the up close details of that gear change is what I like. Likewise seeing it with the clamshell and doors all opened, it certainly interests me a lot more than seeing Clarkson doing a rehash of gags from other episiodes (e.g electric car running out, small car going on pavements/in lifts/indoors, breaking a car wash etc.)

    Yep the Pagani was an undwhelming review. It was paint by numbers stuff like the BMW 1M review.

    Look how cool the interieor is!

    Carbon titanium! Engineering box ticked.

    Now lets show how bonkers this car is!

    I'm looking forward to and dreading the long distance challenge since there's a Subaru a lot like mine in it. On one hand I want to see it on the trip but on the other there's going to be something in the script that will cause a problem that someone familiar with the car would know isn't possible.

    I hope the "specials" are indeed special, as the rest of the show ran out of ideas long ago, and I say that as a long time fan.

    It did, they've done most of which can be done. However it's still amusing for it.
