It is official and direct from the horse’s mouth as it were, Top Gear is returning on our screens for more hijinks on 8pm on BBC Two on Sunday June 27th 2010. I am sure that you’re as excited as I am to see exactly what the boys get up to and what kind of […]
This is definitely the ‘best of British’! The Noble M600 is an amazingly powerful beast, despite having a Volvo engine (the one from the XC90 as we’re reliably informed by Clarkson), it is also massively expensive. The fact that it doesn’t have any electronic features such as ABS – but then this is a REAL […]
You may want to check out the pictures that are now available on the Top Gear website of the new series. Apparently, series 15 is coming this summer, which is good news for us – especially when the rumour was that the current format was to be axed due to viewer numbers declining (despite the […]
The German Show, the first in what is hoped will become an annual event, will be held over the weekend of the 24th & 25th July, in the grounds of the world famous National Motor Museum at Beaulieu. This will be a weekend of purely Teutonic motors with all German marques welcome, from BMW, Audi […]
Whilst Toyota has had a run of bad press and luck recently with some vehicle problems, the Hilux is known for the opposite – being practically indestructable, whatever is thrown at it.

That twiswt being Hammond had to use a traditional sled pulled by dogs, whilst May and Clarkson decided to belt along in their favourite invincible […]
The excellent Skoda Superb estate is now on sale at your local Skoda dealership! The car took the Top Gear magazine for ‘Luxury Car of the Year’ (which tells you all you need to know really) and is the most luxurious and practical car to wear the Skoda badge to date. The Skoda Superb estate […]
Some car manufacturers are more than just that, they are marques. A manufacturer becomes a marque by having history, producing iconic cars and quite often being involved in motorsport. Alfa Romeo is considered just such a marque and is known for creating some beautiful automotive creations, that unfortunately used to suffer from reliability issues. This, […]
I read today that it’s possible that Top Gear is coming to an end. Were the worst to happen and it left our screen, I’d be genuinely gutted. It is more inventive, more entertaining and perhaps more insightful than 90% of other TV on at the moment. It’s also not a soap, ‘reality TV’, self […]
Richard Hammond is one lucky fella, taking the Porsche Boxster S round the track as well as the BMW Z4M. Both great looking fun sports cars – but which would you have? The Porsche arguably has the badge but the Z4 for me has the looks (four exhausts, huge air intakes etc). And what’s that […]
