Looking forward to it - the last series was great, a real step-up.

A new presenter interesting, lets hope this one actually knows something about cars the shoot out sounds good they nearly always are. I'm quite interested in Jonny's little investigation, the value of the raw materiel used to make a car are going up in value dramatically in this economic fuck up (That's the technical term for it)
By revamp does that mean they've stopped filming at the Ace Cafe? I didn't mind it that much but some of the camera shots they were doing inside the Cafe itself were a bit crap, you were kind of looking at the presenters through a crowd of people...

Ronnie O'Sullivan is naturally talented to play snooker, but his attitude....I'm not sure if I will like that feature too much.

Well well well - That sounds the best show for FG ever! Can't wait - I predict a solid 9 out of 10.

Hmmm, testing the Ford Kuga by driving it trough mud, snow and normal road...
I'm guessing it will prove to be as useless offroad as any car in that segment (VW Tiguan, Renault Kaleos, Rav4), BECAUSE IT'S NOT MENT TO BE USED OFFROAD! Other than that, the first episode looks great ![]() (Btw, I've driven a Kuga for a whole day, and when used as a normal car, it rocks! Comfy, silent, no sqeaks or rattles, and superb handling) |

Yes, the cars seem nice.
[QUOTE=So how do you think Tim Shaw will be? I don't know his history...[/QUOTE] Looking at his entry in wikipedia http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tim_Shaw_%28DJ%29 he doesn't seem like a pleasant person. Fifth gear did not need that. Actually IMHO Fifth Gear didn't need one more presenter, it needed one less (Tom Ford). |

This Video tells you everything you need to know about Tim Shaw, his love of cars and the Lotus incident.
Good to see Fifth Gear back, looks like a cracking episode!

As ridiculously hot as his wife is, I still woulda left that bitch for selling my car if I was him, even if I had made such a retarded statement as he did.

Based on that vid, Tim looks to be a good addition to the show. Seems like he knows what he's on about, and should be able to present well.
