Seen the advert on TV now, is 100% a corrado in there with Jason Plato sat next to it. Woohoo Also saw a ford puma

I would advise people start watching Fifth Gear, its a great motoring show.

The biggest problem with 5th gear can be summed up in one line from the advert for the new series, 'lets talk about rust'. Now doesn't that just fill you with excitement.

To me i think its interesting, as i have rust and not going to shit my pants and spend £2k fixing.

Its more relevant than telling me an amg mercedes has brakes the size of dustbin lids.

I'd love to be able to argue that Top Gear was more watchable because it's more entertaining but realistically it isn't anymore (imo). Realistically both shows are pretty boring.

Fifth Gear is cringeworthy at best.

And exactly what television channel might that be on? Not everyone likes staring at a small computer screen and I have no clue about connecting laptops/tablets to tellys.

Fifth gear presenters actually race cars etc, rather than 3 random blokes going through some sort of crisis with their hair & clothes

Its on youtube mate, but they are usually good and output in 1080p or at least 720p.

Easily watchable tbh.

If he does a review on a car its a good 20-25 mins not a 5 min usual from topgear / 5th gear.

Pretty much any consumer electronic device that connects to a telly will probably have a YouTube app by now. (playstation, xbox, most tellies, bluray players, etc.)

Personally it's toilet viewing for me. I don't mean it's crap, I mean I settle in nicely for a poo or a sit down wee with 20mins of YouTube.

3cm must be worried the publicity of the corrado could make them more common than they are currently, resulting them being pushed out the rare category.

Do fifth gear have their own version of the cool wall

Not sure about that, it was good and he drove them properly and I like his reviews, he was self admittedly just screaming like a girl for most of it.

He just seems very camp to me.


I do enjoy 5th gear, and VBH still gives me a twitch.
But I always forget when it's on.
