Top Gear?
Posted: Sat Jun 02, 2007 9:03 pm
Top Gear, the Brit car show, you know the one, does any cable/DSS system carry it in the Twin Towns? Or do I have to settle for pirate copies off the inner net?
That has got to be the best car programs on tv today. Between that show and the car magazine "What Car" the Brits actually have access to data and no holds barred reviews of cars. If a car sucks, What Car actually tells you that is sucks, and in great flair usually to boot. Where as all of the US car rags just sit there and tell the reader how the new and "improved" Focus (or whatever car the manufacturers decided to fuck up) is much better than the previous model year, blah, blah, blah. I wish the US had a mag similar to "What Car" or at least some mainstream publication that held auto makers accountable for their stupid decisions.
Anyway, rant off.
Cheers,
Tim
