Tiff is a much better driver but he also comes across as a bit of a cock. Clarkson used to be rubbish but he's been practicing his slidey slidey and he's not that bad now. the TG guys are all much better fun Tiff has the entertainment value of a German once you get past his driving skills and that other broad Vicki is just annoying.

TG for sure. 5th gear bores me to tears oh here's a fast car, Tiff you go drive it sideways. Great.

TG

- better visuals, better commentory, better entertainment

- more biased, sometimes ridiculously stupid

FG

- better drivers, better comparisons

- less biased, boring commentory

Tiff and Jeremy used to be on the same show from waaaay back even before black stig made an appearance. FG is alright and was first to the R35 GTR I think. They fail whenever someone tries to do a TG impersonation. I like it when the 2 groups come together to battle. Anyone remember Vicky driving the fully decked out R32 GTR while Jeremy drove the TVR? One of my favourite moments.

That said, the best motoring shows IMO are BEST MOTORING and HOT VERSION. I just love the way the Japanese do it.

So far as I can see the 'chemistry' on Top Gear amounts mostly to Clarkson treating everybody else (including the audience) like sh*t.

It's fun for about 15 minutes and then his whole mid-life crisis thing gets very tiring.

5th Gear is definitely dull, but it is informative. The assessments aren't plain stupid, like Clarkson's. (English is good just because it's English - even when it's really German or American. Nissans are just Datsuns - and when did the Japanese know anything about sports cars? etc etc etc etc etc.)

And yes, 5th Gear has the fab Vicky. Never heard anybody sound more like they're having an orgasm just driving a car...

      You should have got a Maine Coone then. Only thing is they're big. But so cool, and just like a dog. Or, just get yourself a high performance dog. That'll teach you for wanting Parkour indoors 😛

      Are you thinking of Bens R32? I don't remember if his went through the bonnet itself, but it went through the chassis rail. Brad (RISKIN) bought it, and turned it into a track car. It's funny how anti people are of Jim Berry now. I remember when I pulled mine out (during an engine change) and inspected it and found it cracking badly. At that point in time so many people were even on SAU, were so pro Jim Berry, and that was after Bens GTR exploded his quite publically.

      That's one of the reasons I got that breed, they look weird, the other reasons are they small, they are very vocal, and run around like they are on crack, I didn't want a breed that just sits around, these two are like kids on red cordial  My daughter has one, and it's a laugh riot, constantly doing Parkour around the house, sits on her shoulder, plays catch, and constantly runs around the house taking turns chasing the dog around, her Bermese though, just lays around with constant bitch face, and just looks on in utter disgust at the cat and dog playing together

      I'm getting PTSD flashbacks seeing that name again.  With my turbo swift, I got 1,500km of street use on a Jim Berry clutch before it exploded and took out my input shaft with it.
