Default Intro

Hello all,
Found the site a couple of weeks ago and registered, so I though I’d better follow protocol.

TG History
Long time Top Gear fan, the oldest episode I vaguely recall seeing is when Jezza got married; I think he left on his honeymoon in hired a Ferrari. (IMDB notes his marriage as 1993) Hardcore fans may recall the episode clearly, as I don’t!

Car History
Have owned various Fords (European), but am now on my third generation of BMW 3 series.

Weirdest looking car I’ve driven – a FIAT Multipla, not mine but a holiday hire car in the French Alps. (Good car – but odd! )

I’ve only ever driven two US cars:
A late 60’s Mustang Coupe borrowed once years ago;
A Grand Marquis Hertz hire car, which was OK for a US four state road trip, the centrepiece of which was the Indianapolis F1 GP.
(Have visited both US & Canada a few times, but don’t usually hire a car.)

* * *
See you all around the Forum,
Des

Hi, my name is calin,i'm 24 and i'm from romania.
I'm a final gear visitor for the last 4-5 years, i remember that it was a lot smaller than now.This is a great community.As for TG/5G I've seen all the new top gear/fifth gear episodes and all of the old top gear episodes that i've found.

My previous cars were a '86 audi 100 2.0 and a '65 vw beetle. I really loved the 100 and so i upgraded to a 91 audi 100(still the typ44-C3 model) 2.2turbo(10v) quattro and i would like the next "upgrade" to be to an audi 200 20v turbo q. And the beetle was replaced by a '94 Alfa 145 1.7 16v boxer engine, i love the looks and the engine sound.

Sorry for my english in this post and future posts.

(can't say that I do, but it's been like 5 years since I've been to dA and I have a horrible memory)

We really do need to get a Portland meet going. So many people from Portland or the surrounding areas...

Hi everybody!

I'm Andrew, from San Francisco. I've been a fan of Top Gear for several years - ever since I first saw it on an airline flight from London back home. Shortly after that, I discovered Final Gear and have been torrenting profusely ever since. Just thought I'd register since this site has been so awesome for me.

Hi.. My name is Seungchul Noh.

I really like Top Gear.
I've been watching S09 as well as I've seen last seasons.

Hello...
My name is Will. I found this site when I was looking for more Top Gear season. I drive a Subaru Legacy wagon buts its not mine its my mothers. I am working to find a 97-00 Subaru Impeza coupe. I used to own a 02 Hyundai Elantra till I had a blow out in a storm. Well I ended up hitting a guardrail with the front of my car then shot across the the highway and smash the back side. I was shock that I was able to walk out of the car once I was able to get the door open. Well I don't know what else to say beside talk to you guys the other forums.
