Topr gear is coming to aus,,and they are looking for people on SBS, to put the aussie car story,
so I think we need a Byron, or the Doc, to go on the show??
Anyone else can too, if you have good cars, and knowledge on aus cars and their history!!
All you have to do is get in touch with SBS.
cheers

i suggest warren as well, but judging by the pommy version, they dont need many brains to run the show.
If nissan motorsport is nismo, then doesnt that make honda motorsport Homo?

I have to admit I LOVE the Brit humour and the original show. The UK camera work is fab, as are the commentaries. Typically dry, sophisticated, with a hint of passion for nice cars, and occasional bad taste with pommy transport. Their factual work is good

Actually I found the second episode a lot funnier and more entertaining than the first.
I do wonder what they are thinking with their what were they thinking section. Bagging the Charger and the Force7.
The Force 7 is a fantastic looking car and |

As a fan of topgear UK my first reaction to aussie TG was of complete and utter humiliation(I felt embarressed for them)they cant be serious.
What sort of idiots do they take us for,they obviously think the people that watch TG UK are a bunch of morons.T

If you have watched 5th Gear as well as Top Gear I think that youll find that its not that our TG is bad, its just that the UK TG is far superior to any motoring show seen on TV, despite this accolade for the series, I thought that the US cross country sp |
