Default The Cool Wall? (spoiler if you haven't seen 10x01)

I'm just wondering, it has been burned beyond recognition, but they did show it, slightly charred. I'm just curious, do the rest of you believe they will revive it? Build a new one?

I think they need to get a new one. The Cool Wall was a great part of the show, just because they had a fire doesn't mean they cant still do it.

Well the Top Gear team (at least Andy anyway) read this forum and I'm certain some things have changed or decisions been made because of what's been said - so if enough people ask for the cool wall back it might happen.

How about a poll?

Should the Cool Wall be rebuilt?

Yes
No

I don't know how to add one but might be an idea?

... Part of the cool-wall was always that they could refer to Cars on it from "the past", moving them and stuff. Building an all new one, wouldn´t be much fun ...

I think they should get a new Wall ... and put the old Cars with new Photos back on it the way they were, maybe not all the real old ones, but most of them ... don´t mess about with the cool-wall ...

No I think thats the beauty of starting fresh. You have a blank tablet to fill with all the new cars coming out.

Old one was a bit cluttered anyway. images/smilies/rolleyes.gif

I would have to agree with Man who loves Mopar, most people are going to vote yes.. the Cool Wall is a staple in one of the all time great shows.

Why get a new one, just put the pictures on hooks instead of velcro and hang it on the scaffolding, no need to change a thing! images/smilies/biggrin.gif

It's sad that the old cool wall is gone now but I don't think rebuilding the exact same thing again would be the best option.

I would love it if they did that. Strangely enough I thought it fit in better with the studio in it's damaged form. The cool wall is so cool not even a fire can kill it! 8)

If not for anything , I think it should be rebuilt just for the entertaining segment that it is. It's always fun to watch them fight over what goes where. And Hammond eating the M6 photo is a great example.

Yes (One of the best bits at times - eating the picture bit), but I'd like to see something extra, or better about it - what I don't know. ...

Also note the missing DB9 Fridge, be on the lookout for a stolen minifridge in the FifthGear diner!

We can pin this on them yet!
