They do actually road test cars though,which TG seem to have given up on.I am starting to think og TG as an amusing comedy show which has a motoring backdrop.

I must say I'm enjoying TG's recent spate of 'adventures' - i.e. across the states, vietnam, etc more than the original programme. I wonder if they plan to do these more often?

yeah, but not many people watch TG expecting them to actually test anything reasonable these days. Even the fiesta test was a blatant pi$$take.

lol what about quentin wilson :P
jeremy clarkson doesnt really know how to do a proper test of cars anymore i think... they dont have enough POWER! lol

tbh if i want to read a review i'd rather look on autocar or parkers
anyway firth gear isnt much better when i comes to testing cars... example "racing" a dodge viper and a corvette... all they really did was burn a bit of rubber... spin them both a couple of times aaaand... slag them off and not tell you any good... or a reasons why you might actually consider being given one
