Just tuned onto the new top gear and they were previewing what will happen over the next few weeks.

As they were showing it, an E30 lands on its roof!!!!! I was shocked!!!!

Top Gear the last few years should change its name to 'if you havent got at least £85,000 to spend dont bother watching' coz u cant keep up with us 'loaded' c**ts who take the piss out of any car less than a Nissan GTR!!!!

Thats the point. They are trying to provoke a reaction. Whether its OMG they trashed an E30 or lol they just trashed another car.

But at the end of the day its not your car or mine that they are doing it to. Although if it was mine I could not anticipate the outcome.

I thought Sundays episode was better than 99% of the last couple of series.

The Lambo was awesome.

I believe they're doing something with classic BM's in this series too.

People have got to realise that the only people who are offended at seeing a shite 20 odd year old Bmw dropped on its roof are mostly the homos on here, nobody else cares (me included!)
If it was an m3 or something special I could understand , change the channel if it makes you emotional.
Top gear rules, how boring would it be watching them drive a ford ka across Kent? Or a corsa from a-b? Watching them drive a Lamborghini across Italy wins hands down!
I had a Ferrari poster on my wall when I was young, couldn't afford one though! It's the same as watching top gear now, il never be able to afford to own any car on there!

It just goes to show how much money the BBC have to waste, we are all paying for it!Why don't they get one of the directors car and do the same thing now that would be good winkeye
They don't make bm's like this anymore!..They should.

Because chances are it's some shitbox £100 if not free turd that was going to get scrapped anyway?

Could be an m3 for all I care, I'm clearly not sad enough

I'd rather see an e30 dropped on it's roof than fitted with some of the leather ''custom'' interiors I've seen here and at shows!

It's a ropey car now, do you really think they give a toss ?

How many zoners really give a toss, hands up ??

I don't and I bet 99% don't either, but you still put the E30 on the pedestal and think it's the best car you've ever owned.

It's TV and entertainment at that, grow up :roll:

I'd love it if they went back to it being a car program instead of scripted frank spencer comedy routines. Like seeing one of their cars rolling with no hand-brake on then the camera looks away and a big crash sound is edited in.

The lambo/noble section was not bad in the last one, but no doubt the dumb-arse sketches will return soon.
