    It was nice to see the bit about the mk2 gti, my pops used to have one back in the day, he especially enjoyed that segment.

    Nice mk2 section, but as usual half of the show fast-forwarded. And i get the impression, that they sent a message "hey watch our show and we will give you tons of prices, who cares its quite average". Imo its quite desperate to give prices worth of thousands pounds to keep the audience.

    Well to be fair the car they're giving away this week is pretty cheap. So they have to make it up with something else. But man, I so wish I could enter the contest when they were giving away the R33 and the M5.

    Yeah but you'd have an R33 that you couldn't legalize easily if you lived in the US and a RHD M5 that's also UK spec...

    The bikes bit was useless.
    The tyres bit was next to useless, given ABS is on the vast amjority of cars these days.
    The Golf GTi bit was okay, but nothing new.
    Trotter Van was quite interesting though kept thinking, shouldn't have been left to rot for two years.
    Fiesta section was strangely the most effective bit.


    wrt prizes, there is nothing new this week that hasn't been in previous weeks even with "better" or newer give aways. Personally giving a mkII GTi as a prize is of a similar value to some others given away before if you consider how much they spent on an upgrade.

    4/10

    The tyre test was just a dumbed down version of the one they did last year, which was based on an Auto Express test.

    Was another ...meh... episode. Sure the Fiesta looks ok, but the other 5 segments were a bit droll.

    The bike segment was pointless
    The tyre segment was semi-pointless
    The Golf GTI MkII was OK
    The Fiesta was OK
    The Trotter Van was 3 months to do what
    The Small Car (aka Vikki's arse) test was pointless

    I liked the MkII segment and the Fiesta review.

    I even forgot all about that. Really was that pointless then.

    Back then Motorex was still in business so if I won it for free, I could've paid the $25k for them to legalize it. But the M5, yea, no way to register it.

    one the the worst episodes of the season... most of the segments were pretty boring if not utterly pointless

    The "E46 M3" isn't a E46 M3 at all. I wasn't sure about Tim until now, but he just lost all my respect.

    Tiff seemed to be a real cock in the GTI segment and a bad loser on the first part of the bike challenge which was crap (the segment that is).

    Tom's review was quite good.

    The GTI segment was good but I would have liked it to be longer with more involvement from Jonny.

    That boxer segment was also utter rubbish.

    To be honest, this was by far the worst episode of the season.
