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.

    • If you mean the alarm immobiliser; theyre internal to the alarm itself which makes that difficult; I couldnt even see where he put it; its not in the same place as last time; but with all black wiring it might be very challenging to trace  I had someone turn the key for me as I know it only primes for a couple of seconds As my post above; I am getting no voltage to the pump at all; but I am testing continuity of the power line (SB) from the pump plug to the relay fine. As well as the negative from the pump plug to a 12V constant.    Yeah; he blammed the no start on a bad battery; said I needed to get a new battery and it'll start. Turns out the battery drained because the tail lights had been on for half the day during the install (the rubber cushion on the brake switch gave out while he was testing it as I have a picture of the car from that morning with the tail lights off..i've replaced that). The battery was turning over the engine just fine for a long time; but got low since lights were draining it so it was too low to test a start after he finished. I bought a new one on his advice...$250 wasted. My original battery charged up just fine and is healthy.    It was running perfectly fine when I messed up the old alarm (programmed out the remotes). He couldnt start it after removing the old alarm; my assumption is that when he unhooked it; he didnt bridge the circuit back when trying to start it. Its always been perfectly fine. The ECU swap and pump were 2 years ago. It's never missed a beat in that time. 
    • This is a big issue for me without the diff. I just have zero drive from the passenger side when drivers side has no traction. Bec's parents place has a crazy steep driveway with odd camber and I have never been able to get up. My bro-in-law's 130i with an (unknown brand) LSD gets up fine as does their dad's Hiace. My car stays at the bottom. We have other odd camber roads around here as we're elevated a bit and if it's raining I can get totally stuck around some hairpins. 
    • Yeah, I am super excited for this.
    • Was the car running before he touched the car?
