While I know for a fact that the Russian car market is growing and is predicted to be the biggest in Europe very soon, I'm pretty sure this is fake...

everyone else already explained it images/smilies/tongue.gif

About the screens. They are no doubt look bad, but it's internal video with casting the presenters, and it's not for everyone's eyes. TG Australia used UK logo too for some early period on SBS site if I'm not mistaken.

I have a theory that this vignetting imitates the inside hole of cog from TG logo )

And they still do, because the SBS site is for the UK show. SBS haven't given TopGear Australia their own site yet.

Oh dear, this is getting out of hand. Soon every country will have it's own TG, all with TV has-beens. I hope they don't forget about the UK show. images/smilies/rolleyes.gif

Oh, it's fake. Good. images/smilies/tongue.gif

If this has any grain of truth, they should've tried to get Podorojanskiy to host. I remember he had some show a while a go, and he was pretty good.

Please, NO Russian Top Gear. British great, American, Australian have potential, Russian - FAIL in every possible way as all of the Russian Television.

And he drives a Carrera 4 on a daily basis IIRC. It's funny you mention him, cause he's the editor in chief for the russian Autoreview paper/mag, and as far as I remember Petrovsky used to write some colums for it, but not any more. Which suggests that he could be involved in some sort of a project.

Anyway, I disapprove. And Aston Martin gets a +rep for hitting the nail on the head ;D

What do you know about Russian television? Im guessing absolutely nothing images/smilies/rolleyes.gif

I really doubt that this will be official TG. That is, I doubt that it is related to Clarkson and co. However, I'm pretty sure that it will be pretty funny and cool to watch.
Also, please stop posting pictures of icy roads and old Fiats. I like these more (all taken in Moscow by an enthusiast spotter):

There's exotics in all countries... even New Zealand.

Problem is, most people would probably think of something like this when they hear of Russian motoring:
