I enjoyed the episode. Nothing of any practical use except the 1 series M which was a very cool review or a very good car.

That's not really practical either when you think that it's a £40k car :lol: At least the Golf GTI has always been an affordable motor.

Possibly, but relatively speaking 40k is a hell of a lot more practical than a 300k or 500k car. I'll allow myself to aim for an 1M for now.

Been avoiding this thread as I've been an episode behind, caught up now, IMO this series has picked up quite a bit compared to the last, nice to see a lot more focus on actual cars and not just random rubbish  :thumbup:

Cars are pretty boring to be fair.

More random rubbish is what's needed.

I never thought i would say this but i would i have to agree, i guess you get so used to the random rubbish that now i find myself watching Topgear on Iplayer so i can skip the boring car reviews, unless its something really special.

I thought the last episode was a good example of of their few truly practical recommendation pieces (2nd hand vs new) that wasn't another dull roadtest. If all of the 'all car' episodes were as good as that it would be much better.
