It was the run to Newton Stewart that I got a bit of air off a bridge, then straight into a left hander when I saw my exhaust overtaking me as I braked for the corner 😂 No idea what run the pic above was from. Early days tho as it still had the v6 in it.

I’ve got it out and running again. Might mot it this week.

I'm sure I had some good pictures of the henson from one of the HH's, can't remember which year. But struggle to get them since photobucket turned in to a mess 🙄

The new series of Top Gear kicks off tonight... are you looking forward to it or a bit meh?

Has the huge amount YouTube car content made TV shows like this largely redundant or is it still a highlight of the week? ...

What's Top Gear?

4 days ago · 1

The format is dreadful. Staged and predictable. Had its day.

Been "meh" for years :(

I still like it . The grand tour is getting awful though. 6 episodes in and not enjoyed a single one yet

Still better than the Grand Tour. The best bit in all 3 seasons so far of the grand tour was the Jim Clark film

I’d rather watch car sos far better not the same since clarkson, Hammond, and may got the boot

Desperately trying replace a genuine chemistry (whether you liked the individuals or not) with z list celebs / "lads" with a history of outrageous behaviour but no known talents. Needs a total rethink or be put out of our misery

I don't think Top Gear or The Grand Tour are much cop now but will watch it as it's got cars on it 😄

Matt le blanc is the worst presenter that's ever been

4 days ago · 1

2 Replies

I like Matt, Chris and Rory- I think it's more about the cars now than it was before (more Luke the older episodes of the original top gear)

4 days ago · 3

The last two series with Chris , Rory and Matt have been as good as peak Clarkson, May and Hammond. Don't get me wrong some of the studio bits are a bit forced and awkward but you can tell that the three of them work well together, play off each other and can generally have a laugh and made a car show around that. Matt's enthusiasm for massive power tools and plant equipment is as genuine and as hilarious as May's love of the mundane I.e Sandero, Panda etc. Harris is the petrol head and Rory shows you the car culture side that you wouldn't have gotten with Clarkson, Hammond and May. Whether you like them or not, can't we just celebrate the sheer variety of content that is out there for us petrol heads to watch. Whether it be wrenching, lifestyle, drifting, classics, exotics, muscle cars, there is something for everyone. If you don't like it, there will be something for you.

Is this the one with the new line up of Freddy Flintoff, Paddy McGuiness and Chris Harris? Ill watch it but im unsure about it.

It is a bit meh but all the moreso for knowing the next Top Gear's presenters and series look much more fun.

Quite like Matt, Chris & Rory so looking forward to it. I'll probably give it a miss next year though.

I watch it because it fills an hour - both TG and GT Neither are that good though.... but they are mildly entertaining

4 days ago

Considering the budget of GT it’s really disappointing, they just regurgitate the same half a dozen ideas in different places with the same jokes and mickey taking. TG is worth watching for Chris Harris pieces and his humour

Pretty sure I’ve seen all the good bits in adverts on TV and Facebook.

The Grand Tour has become the most ridiculously fake show on TV. I watched it the other day having not seen any episodes for a while. It's so forced that I was cringing at how bad it is.

4 days ago · 1

Chris Harris on Cars is a bit of a knob .... Rory Reid is a much better presenter and decent guy (In my opinion)

I think 5th gear is a much better show.

I prefer the recent series to how it had died over last 4/5 yrs with clarkson et al. But I much prefer Chris Harris own stuff where he just gets stuck into the cars and driving. Still makes for reasonable Sunday evening tv.

4 days ago

Worth a watch, I like the current line up. Gran tour is good but agree it’s a bit ott on the scripted side.

Got myself a new wheel centre. Loving the look. Anyone else interested in having the same? 50mm domed gel sticker. Would cost about £3 + postage.

If there's enough interest we can get an order made up.

If it's the tackiest thing you've ever seen. C'est la vie. ...

Would maybe get two or three but not for the steering wheel - old tax disc holder or bumper maybe!

Get 52mm for wheel centres and complete the look on the car :)

What company made the domed stickers ? I am looking to have some made up for my project. Thanks

Joe: “No problem. Leave it with me”

Pure dead chuffed with the result. Brilliant job by Rennat HelmetDesign.

(Think I should have brought more than that home on 14th Feb tho. I’m sure there was something else.......) ...

Did the same with my first lid (was just white before, a Shoei) along with my name and Ecurie Ecosse on it. Totally noob job though compared to this excellent top notch finish.
