This makes me sad. I always liked these.

If you’re that worried about the rod bearings, why not just budget for a set of the VAC bearings and have them changed out as soon as you get the car? I know that is something above and beyond the normal ownership experience for most cars, but the issue is relatively well known (though I think the internet kind of…
During FP2 on NBCSN, Machete or Hobbs said the cheapest ticket price for Sunday was 250 euros! I love F1, but that price is just insane.
The terrible ones make the good ones that much better!
What was Ricciardo’s complaint about the Red Bull windscreen design? (I can’t remember.)
This article is great just for pointing out the silliness of bragging that you are daily driving a ridiculously reliable car. As always, you are my automotive kindred spirit riding the wave of depreciated cars. Keep it up!
I love that we are blacked out on our annual passes during he busy months. It actually feels like a feature! Nothing beats seeing your kids happy at Disney and makes the awful hell it is worth it.
With Chris Evans gone, the show is mostly fixed. The current presenter line up is fine. The open issue is if the writing and production behind the scenes will improve.
This is amazing timing for this article for me personally. My wife was describing this exact story about a week ago. I looked at her incredulously because I couldn’t believe it was real! How is this even a concept that it could have been offensive in the 90's??? I guess growing up in the northeast the idea of a woman…
I picked up the fast and furious Blu ray set this morning when it was at 35 bucks. Worth it!
I have a few of them on DVD and popped them in for my 4 year old. Definitely not written for him. Still hilarious.
Every fan of top gear should read that book. You could see exactly where the failure were going to be after reading that book.
I agree completely. I got sick of people that just seemed to hate this show because it wasn’t the old ones. There was a lot to like and the show kept showing promise. With Evans gone, maybe we’ll get to see that potential realized.
I always remember the Duster, Shadow, et al. as being the prize cars on the Price Is Right when I was a kid. Man, that car looked like the coolest thing to a 10 year old me, so I always have a slight soft spot for them even though adult me knows they are terrible, terrible cars. Nice Price vote for Bob Barker meets…
I read that bit about Evans saying a new rolls was shouty as Raphael stating that Evans was dreadfully shouty. Took me a second.
I agree with all of your points. I don't know if Jenson would work on Top Gear (would rather he become an F1 commentator), but I think the BBC would be willing to take the chance.
That is an interesting take.
They had a Top Gear dog. It now lives with Richard Hammond on his farm/estate.
I am looking forward to an update to this article after Friday. All of this story sounds messed up.
