Its got Gaids.

I cannot believe that they can actually call it a show.

they get an idea and do the most half arsed segment on it.

There sense of humour fails.

I thought there was some big competition to get presenters - whos freakin idea was it to get those guys - they cant drive, there not funny and the stig wtf - the UK stig looks fit, calm and collected - the aus stig looks fat and looks like he struggles to control their cars.

I think Ignition DVD put on a better show than the Aus top gear.

Im a fairly optimistic person and I hoped that they would do a good job and make an enjoyable show but I just cant get into it.

As for drifting? If you call a wallowing oversteer "drifting" - then you are a master of it!

That is all.

[MP_R33]

Saw a bit just before!

Did they just get randoms off the street to hoast it?

Never seen em in my life haha...

[jlards]

yeah i totally agree after two episodes ive had enough already!

the holden vs. ford was spose to be good challenge and what did they saw at the end their both good and equal what kind of shit is that ther too affraid to offend any potential viewers that ther sacrificing the point of the show(tell truth about the car/s) which makes it seem the show has lees substance. i swear all they did was snatch a few brits taught them the aussie accents overnight because they even look and dress like damn poms and are sooo the most f**kin boring people on tv. i hope 5th GEAR bring out an aussie version as competition hope it shits all over this pathetic rip off of what was a great show. put the brit version back on u cant beat their humour and sarcasm and that jerramy bloke is the best my 2 cents any way very dissapointing

Fell asleep half way through the Falcodore comparison. Who won? Am I right in reading it was a tie? Are they both the best cars on the face of the planet? Please can SBS just run repeats of the UK version. Or 1.5 hrs of Southpark? Or the satellite image? Seriously.

[sh@un]

completely forgot it was on

would have changed the channel on the plasma at the Ari if i had have remembered while we were playing pool... but after reading the comments here, i'm glad i didn't

[INVRTD]

i vote that the ignition boys should make a weekly feature,

[ctjet]

come on SBS

chuck on some of that soft core porn you guys do so well

[msnismo]

well missed it last week (forgot) ... watched half of it tonight.... wish I'd missed it again

I'd rather watch 5 year old episodes of the UK one anytime...

[GTR-N1]

+1 Vote for 'Roy & HG' to take over the hosting.

Oh yes, and to watch the Stig to avoid a random 'Fatso'

[ctjet]

... how fkn awesome is that idea

[INVRTD]

+1 Vote for 'Roy & HG' to take over the hosting.

that would be soooo awsome. it has my vote

[CARSICK]

+1 Vote for 'Roy & HG' to take over the hosting asap

+1 Vote for 'Fatso' X 20 to replace witches hats.

i have to admit...the show had its moments, not many but some. you guys were right about the track time. you cant see f-all of the track, all the angles are down low...shithouse. was it me or was there alot of in cabin counter steering when they were doing the ford v holden? the gold mine was ok, but everytime they did a segment in the studio i cringe. their matterial just isnt working for me.

[funkymonkey]

show was better than last week's I'll give it that much... which is not saying much. But by god, I've never seen so much bodyroll on a pair of "best value vehicles for the money" since I watched the Sydney to hobart boat race. WTF, apparenlty sane people are happy to drive tuning house tweaked cars that wobble like a 80 year old's knees?

And as per my previous complaint about last week's show... Absolutely no decent shots of the track, horrible coverage of the "celebrity in a bog stock car"... it was like two turns and he was over the finish line. For a second when they said "from Mad Max" I was hoping they actually managed to get Mel Gibson... but then they introduced some fat git who I'd never seen before. WTF.

[Marlin]

Easily worse than last week....... I said I'd give it another chance, but it's official, I hate it. Pathetically thought out special feature at the mine, god-awful empty ford/holden comparo, and the Smart car hearse, well that took the farkin cake. Stig can't drive for shit, and I really mean that.

Top Gear Australia.... DROP DEAD!
