    have to say i am still enjoying it, if you stop trying to compare the aussie version to the 12/13 series old uk version and consider it more of a stand alone show it is not bad. as other have mentioned check out the early uk top gear, some of them where terrible.
    treat it for what it is an aussie based car show which is far better then anything glenn ridge presented. alternatively don't watch it.
    cheers

    I'm with you yorkie, It's not half as good as th UK version but still entertains me.
    I like the old TV ads from the 70's.
    I gave up on the first series but seems to be drawing me back.

    I note next week they are comparing an old 4wd with a new one. Bet they use a toyota though

    An ancient Tojo and old patrol?

    Wow a different engine.

    I would not call it new, the new one is not even designed yet.
