As much as I loved what Clarkson, Hammond and May did. The amount of actual information in these old shows was something they could have done in a different programme afte the trio revamped top gear.
Agreed. Modern TopGear was more about entertainment. I enjoyed it but the original was more factual, more consumer information, and also very professional. I found the last two seasons of New Top Gear before Clarkson was sacked dull really, it was getting tired and a bit samey, but I never tired of old TG.
damn so much good information in these old eps, wish some car shows now were more informative, like an automotive news channel not all stunts nd what not, anyway i always thought 10 & 2 were best guess i was wrong :-O
Old top gear was factual and gave excellent information on new cars.....clarkson and co were an entertainment focused show ...l liked both formats...take note tv land....
0:57 Panther Solo boot beginning to warp out of shape, the show cars were made in a hurry and the panels were taken out of the moulds too early, as the show went on they were just watching things distort
95bhp from the 1.4 is none too shabby even for a na engine these days. Corsas are putting out less. New astra k is only 100bhp 1.4 naturally too. And the 1.6 116bhp was very healthy for 1990. 15 years later focuses and 307s and astras still only mustered around 115.
