windy1945 Posted January 26, 2009 Posted January 26, 2009 just watching fifth gear at the mo and had to rewind to check what i had seen!why does a channel five motoring programme thats a blatant rip off of top gear have a pile of top gear magazines sitting on their coffe table@ strange! neil it's because they don't have a clue about cars and need some pointers and deep down they all know that Top Gear is the dogs lol
scouk Posted January 26, 2009 Posted January 26, 2009 (edited) Well Spotted! But if I have to bash 5g for something it's that Diesel fuel test.. Good test, similar to what they did a few years back with Standard Optimax and BP Ultimate petrols! But... It's diesels.. Why no torque figures! For anyone who has a clue, will know that bhp is for bragging rights down the pub and torque is for drivability and the weyhey! effect. Diesels are not about high end bhp.. they are about ggrunt and torquey stuff.. In the last test with petrols a bigger difference was seen when comparing the torque of each. Think they missed the point with that one.. BTW - I've been filling up with Tesco 99 last couple of tanks and although seems to work fine, it doesn't have a potent, get you high fumey smell I got from V-Power Edited January 26, 2009 by ScoUK
StewartyBoy Posted January 26, 2009 Posted January 26, 2009 HAHAHAHAHA WHAT IS SHE DOOOOOOOOOOOOING IN THAT CAR!!!! Bodyshop anyone!?
neill54 Posted January 26, 2009 Author Posted January 26, 2009 its not a bad programme if they hired new presenters ! cant stand the tall one he is the gimp that once for flirting on a radio programme he presented with a page 3 bird his wife over heard and sold his lotus espirit on ebay for a grand ha ha neil
oobster Posted January 26, 2009 Posted January 26, 2009 Tom Ford, the "chunky" beardy one, writes for Top Gear magazine regularly. I never watch 5th gear "live". Always Sky+ it and you can flash through all the dross. Which is about 50-60% of the programme.
scouk Posted January 26, 2009 Posted January 26, 2009 (edited) I think the silly sofa bits should be binned.. Tom Ford isn't ba, knows what he's talking about.. Other guy needs a kick....keep the tiff's and vicky parts And go back to basics of a Joe Blogs mottoring program with the Tiffany sillyness now and again.. They are trying to be too much liek TG.. Which I admit is entertaining at times, but unbelievably false in places and more interested in ratings.. I long for the day we have the Old skool TopGear style program back on our screens.. Every day useful stuff and Tiff goign sideways! Edited January 26, 2009 by ScoUK
colzo Posted January 26, 2009 Posted January 26, 2009 5th Gear make quite a lot of references about Top Gear, last week they made a dig about the Stig. To be honest I like 5th Gear especially Tiff and Jason's reviews. Top Gear can be a bit OTT and pointless at times.

It was 50p his Lotus went for by the way, bought it back off the guy for a grand though! Way to go Tim, that didn't make him look an even bigger idiot than it did before did it!!!!
neill54 Posted January 26, 2009 Author Posted January 26, 2009 thanks about the figures new it was a really silly price it went for and im glad im not married to bunny boiler like that!! neil

What a muppet what makes it bad tho is that he is the guy on tv trying to give joe public advice on cars and buying them
hosstheboss Posted January 27, 2009 Posted January 27, 2009 I think 5th Gear is sh*t, but you gota luv Vicky.............
Big Gordon Posted January 27, 2009 Posted January 27, 2009 Watch 5g now and again but did see it when they tested the replacement for the Vectra, the Insignia i think. Now i'm not into this type of car but was in one recently and for a family saloon it had no rear legroom and even less headroom yet non of this was even mentioned. Always get the feeling that they don't quite finish road tests, i only watch for VBH and Tiff and Jason driving as it's quite entertaing.

hosstheboss Posted January 27, 2009 Posted January 27, 2009 (edited) The bit 5th Gear did on the McRae gathering, when she was guiding cars into position and bared her midrift............oh man, i had a wee map of Australia in ma knickers...... Edited January 27, 2009 by hosstheboss
neill54 Posted January 27, 2009 Author Posted January 27, 2009 it must be cause she can drive a car ok then is it? i dont like her at all! neil
scoob fae ork Posted January 27, 2009 Posted January 27, 2009 PHHHHWOOOOAARRRRRR!!!!! All that and she loves cars and she can drive them too oh boy
neill54 Posted January 27, 2009 Author Posted January 27, 2009 (edited) I would love to :-) shoot her with a high caliber rifle? yeah me too mate neil Edited January 27, 2009 by neill54
stum450n Posted January 27, 2009 Posted January 27, 2009 I probably would but that picture's giving me the creeps! Someone's photoshopped her head REALLY badly!
wulsey Posted January 27, 2009 Posted January 27, 2009 VBH does it for me too! That looked a good P1 they were giving away last night!
hosstheboss Posted January 28, 2009 Posted January 28, 2009 I would not. did you play with dolls when you were young?
oobster Posted January 28, 2009 Posted January 28, 2009 I just dont see the attraction. There are hunners, nay thousands of women nicer looking than VBH. Apart from that, VBH is just a wee bit annoying. Some people think that wee laugh she does is cute, I dont.
