Big Rizza Posted October 23, 2005 Share Posted October 23, 2005 Judging from the lack of response, it seems there aren't many 5th Gear fans on the boards. I prefer Top Gear personally, but I have downloaded both episodes anyway.

Daniel_ Posted October 23, 2005 Share Posted October 23, 2005 I downloaded an eps of 5th gear last season, was so boring compared to top gear. Maybe I just got a bad one.

Big Rizza Posted October 23, 2005 Share Posted October 23, 2005 This current series of 5th Gear seems to be an improvement, but still lacks the humour and personality of Top Gear.

INASNT Posted October 24, 2005 Author Share Posted October 24, 2005 I like them both and have the last 2 season of both on computer. I find 5th gear go more indepth into the cars where as Jeremy talks more about quality of the interior plastics etc. 5th gear also give away so many nice cars weekly as prizes.

Big Rizza Posted October 25, 2005 Share Posted October 25, 2005 I already posted this on the Arial Atom thread, but for Top Gear fans Final Gear have some classic Top Gear episodes (1989-90) for download if you're interested.

sav man Posted October 25, 2005 Share Posted October 25, 2005 I downloaded them cause i'm waiting on Top Gear. 5th Gear has nothing on Top Gear, and they even had a go at the Top Gear test track. Nov 13 is the day to wait for Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/92003-new-season-of-5th-gear-is-out/#findComment-1667182 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Big Rizza Posted October 25, 2005 Share Posted October 25, 2005 Top Gear test track is definitely inferior to the 5th Gear test track, but aside from that Top Gear is superior. I want to see the Stig vs the 5th Gear crew in a race!

Patto- Posted October 25, 2005 Share Posted October 25, 2005 (edited) Where do you see Top Gear? 5th Gear is on the lifestyle channel on foxtel. Or at least it was, it hasn't been on lately. I've heard a lot about Top Gear, but never actually seen it. I'll download it if I have to but is it on any channel on Foxtel or Free-to-air? 5th Gear can be a bit boring sometimes but the last one I saw was good. Had Porsche vs. Porsche and Lamborgini Gallardo vs. Ducati. The crash tests are usually good as well. I think the boring parts are usually the non-performance stuff. Like when they road tested different fuel efficient cars, or some bloody people-mover.

It's also a heavily cut down version of the one the BBC shows in the UK. I watch Top Gear by downloading the full length episodes from usenet.

INASNT Posted October 26, 2005 Author Share Posted October 26, 2005 U can download all the last season's top gear and 5th gear off bittorrents. The test of the R32 GTR by jeremy clarkson is not that interesting as the test in mainly on public roads in Japan.

Very interesting to see the old reviews... 1990 episode 7 - Tiff Needle gets show how to do the scandinavian flick in a rally car - this may be the first epsiode where tiff learns to go side ways... and now look at him... all he does is go sideways. Also in the season of fifth gear episode 2 tiff drives a williams f1... man he was nervous and excited Bring on more topgear and fifth gear Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/92003-new-season-of-5th-gear-is-out/#findComment-1669703 Share on other sites More sharing options...

INASNT Posted October 27, 2005 Author Share Posted October 27, 2005 Episodes 3 is up. It will be interesting to see if Clarkson's back holds up for the next season as by the end of the last he could hardly walk!! What about the car 5th gear give away as prizes everyweek?? They are damn nice, and the answer to the multiply answer questions is always the same for the whole season Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/92003-new-season-of-5th-gear-is-out/#findComment-1671328 Share on other sites More sharing options...
