I personally found the show really boring. The TVR is goofy as hell looking (but it is very fast, I'll give it that) there was no Bentley and the Panda Vs. Runner was waaaayyyy too long. The Transit was pretty cool and that chick is one hell of a driver although I don't think she'd work well on Top Gear, maybe on Fifth Gear?!

I can't wait for next week's show with the Ferrari.

This episode is heading straight for the recycle bin.

Sagaris sounds brilliant and is blindingly quick. Listen to that noise! That segment had some great video editing too.

Bwahaha jezza got pwnzored by a runner. Wasn't even close images/smilies/lol.gif

And Sabine passing Porsches on the 'Ring... images/smilies/mrgreen.gif images/smilies/lol.gif

A great episode. Unlike the dude above, I'm kepping this one.

This has to be one of the greatest episodes I have seen. Only one fast car, and yet the whole program was interesting. JC seemed to be in real pain on The News, but it was absolutely precious at the Cool Wall. I was on my toes through the whole marathon. Just a great idea for a race. I hope Sabine comes to show what she is made of in the next series. 8)

Downloaded the torrent, will start looking now. The 380 MB version looks terrible. Horrible quality and some loser fucked up the aspect ratio. The 350 MB versions are much, much better but I didn't found that one on mininova...

Well this was quite a boring episode. The TVR was good but the race sucked big time. I don't know why but it was just so boring to watch it.

Sabine is irritating, so hopefully we have seen the last of her.

I tought Sabine was quite good. But she was sometimes a little too "expressive" images/smilies/smile.gif. But it gives her a cute girlish look which has a nice contrast with like Jeremy and James.

And I suppose we will see her (a lot) in the next season as she will propably replace Jeremy as test driver of the sport cars. I guess the initial stress of being in such a show (I don't know if she has much experience with that and that can explain her sometimes irritating behaviour) will wear off and she will fit more in the show and, as I hope, make a good contribution to our favourite car show images/smilies/smile.gif

And no Sabine isn't some hot supermodel with big breasts but little brains, which is good images/smilies/smile.gif. As long as she knows what she is talking about.

The race was actually surprising to see that the runner won. I always supposed Jeremy cheated to let the car win images/smilies/wink.gif
