Hi,

can anyone tell me if Top Gear or Fifth Gear (whatever show Tiff Needell is now on, like where he reviewed the Enzo) has done a comprehensive review (read: track time + witty banter) of any of the cars in our purview like the RX8, the 350Z, the Sti, the EVO, Cooper Works?


If so, can anyone rip and host?


Or at least keep a lookout?


Please?

No UK TV show has reviewed the RX8 yet.

It was breifly shown on TopGear a few weeks ago, butnot driven.

Channel 4's driven i think is the first to test it on tv soon - no idea when tho.

Me think if not mistaken, this season's topgear is still host by Jeremy Clarkson. So you would not get much of those rubber burning action as how Tiff would have host it.

If anybody has the 350Z one done by Clarkson then I'd like to see that also.

Or better yet, any Top Gear videos. I love that show. Too bad they don't have it here in the US. :(

BBC 'sold' top gear to channel 5(?) but kept the name.

So the show format and quite a few presenters etc started up againas '5th Gear'.
