5th Gear - S11 EP1 - 30th April, 2007 - Discussion

Quote:

Tom discovers what it’s like to be a paparazzi photographer hot on the trail of celebrities in an unassuming black Kia Cee’d – the perfect car for “spies, getaway drivers and paparazzi”. After a briefing from Big Pictures boss Darryn Lyons he’s off, and soon has Madonna firmly in his sights. But will he come up with a big money picture?

There’s also a big car crash investigation. Two identical cars meet in a head-on collision, one in perfect condition and one which has been badly repaired. The results are shocking and demonstrate the importance of carrying out a vehicle history check before you buy second-hand.

Also this week, Tiff Needell has the first TV test of the car everyone’s talking about: the Audi R8.

And regular racing mogul Jason Plato puts his foot to the floor when he takes the Brabus Rocket, the world’s fastest four-door saloon, to the German Autobahn to try and top 200mph.

And Vicki puts the Fiat Panda 100 HP through a stern test as she races it against a Ferrari around a track –with some surprising results.

Oooo, good way to start off the new season

Also, i'm not sure but.. can it be true?... no more Lovejoy :D :D

I hope they got rid of that poof Loverboy!

But R8 and Brabus Rocket sound very nice! :D

R8!!!!!!!!!!! jeeeeeeeeeeey :mrgreen: :mrgreen: :mrgreen:

The first two paragraphs almost put me off the whole series... a car crash and a Kia... what more could anybody possibly want ? :roll: An R8 and a Brabus I guess :D

I agree. Beat that Top Gear !

^exactly

plus it would really make us appreciate some finer engineering given proper g-forces :lol:

I wonder what they have with car carsh :| Is it that interesting ?? Not for me ...
But I like the rest wich sounds very good !! :D

Wow looks like they got lots of substance this time around. I am actually looking forward to it.

Yeah Lovejoy just didn't fit at all. Good thing he isn't around anymore.

Cool ... they are way ahead top gear now :D

Though it´s only 5th Gear, this first ep seems to be quite nice actually :D R8 and Brabus Rocket is definitely something i wanna see :twisted: Let´s hope they can hold this level for the entire series though i very much doubt it :roll:

The R8 feature with Tiff will be great for sure. :good:

If its true, tears of joy would be appropriate, that guy knew absolutely nothing about cars, what a loser...I think they realised their mistake :D
