At the risk of turning this into another one of those threads....

I really think Top Gear lost their way about 5 seasons ago

True, but it will be better than watching ice skating or whatever other shite the miswah usually watches at that time on a Sunday.

I will be watching but not with the enthusiasm that I used to. Can't see there being too many more series so best to enjoy it for now.

They only ever drive the crap out of super cars or performance cars around a track and they come up with silly ideas for entertainment value..

I don't mind hearing how great these super cars are (that's why they are performance cars), but will I ever be able to afford one? How about the rest of the country?

I'm only 26 and I feel TV is missing a car show that reviews 'daily' cars that 'normal' people can afford...

However, I will still watch it so my post was pretty much useless...

It's not on TV, but carbuyer on youtube is pretty good, although the reviews are only about 4 or 5 mins long.
