Missed it to. A friend SMS'd me AFTER the fact. Grrr.

I'd be very suprised if a 2nd series of TG Oz was commissioned. They're all try hard of the original, however I don't blame the hosts, but the franchise.

I'm standing by to get flamed here but...

Am I the only person on the planet that thinks TopGear is a bit too campy ??, I mean it's like 'queer eye for the straight guy' motoring show

Poofy little guy with lots of make up, and two queer old guys going on gay little adventures ???

Not that there is anything wrong with that if that's your kind of thing but, as a car show...

I better go put on my flameproof pink jumpsuit now

Camp, yes. Gay, no. They're English. That makes them fruits to begin with. Doesn't mean they're not highly entertaining.

I bought my TGLIVE tickets the morning they came out. Can't wait.

If you havent already, download season 11 ep 4 and 5... Jeremy vs the other 2... race from one side of japan to the other, GTR v Bullet train and other forms of transport and then Clarkson takes the GTR to Fuji speedway to review it properly...

Gotta love the cars it beats around the test track too.

I think the aussie show aint too bad. If you have ever watched the first season of the UK "New" Top gear it was crap too. They had Clarkson, Hammond and this fat guy named Jason Daw or something like that and he was terrible! The first season of the NEW format was struggling to get the numbers of people in the first couple of episodes and you could see it in the hangar. Once the second season came and they ditched the fat dude for captain slow it started to get better.

You have to remember they are now 12 seasons strong and have worked together for a few years now. The Aussies are only a season in and they have season 2 coming (already filmed most of it) so it can only get better. They need to ditch Warren the cartoonist though, he is sooo far from being a good car reviewer. Give them time they will get it together.

We are not the only ones to have taken the reigns of the show either. The US and Russia have also got 'local' versions of the show.

UK is still the best though and the new episodes were on tonight

Yeah but the Aussie guys have the wit and screen presence of a rotten carrot thats been in a dogs anal cavity for 3 weeks.

I think they should have gotten the dog to host it :)

a bluey, staffy and a labrador would have been funnier.

      Maybe they'll look to do a bunch of presales to help inject some cash fast for their financial issues...

      Does it also misfire equally when revving?   Josh is very correct in what you should do. The coilpack harness wiring loom itself is a known problem due to its age and the number of heat cycles it has gone through. Throwing parts at a vehicle to diagnose the issue isn't a smart or good way to do it. Secondly, you may have a bad coil pack, you pop replacements in, they fix that issue, but messing with the harness breaks it, so the issue persists. So now you think "well it wasn't the coil packs" and have to continue chasing your tail, potentially swapping back in your shit coil packs and returning the good ones (yes, I've seen people do this because 'it wasn't the problem' and they want to save money). And suddenly, you've got two issues with the same symptoms...   Diagnose, don't use the spare parts shotgun.

      Well the articals keep saying a Q50s (Skyline in Japan) with a new Manual gearbox. I like the talk about the new looks with the round tail lights. I hope they bring back the retro look like they did with the Z

      Wanna rewrite all of that in, say, 2 or 3 separate sentences, so that we can read it?
