Old Top Gear - Jaguar XJ6 XJ40 Buyers Guide

[makiavelli999]

I´d much rather watch these old episodes of Top Gear than Fifth Gear. Jeremy Clarkson when he still had hair and looks like a gorilla in a black leather jacket squeezed into a Ferrari 355. He lifted Top Gear from a boring BBC program to be one of the biggest TV shows on Earth by introducing humor into the program. Not bad eh?

This is why the old Top Gear was better than the new Top Gear. Informative car buying guides by Quentin. What he didn't know about cars was not worth knowing.

that's an incredibly expensive cop car, that's why in America, we go with Dodge Chargers (290, 385 or 470 HP), Ford Tauruses (292 or 365 HP), and Chevrolet Caprices (306 or 426 HP), which are all quite affordable, and yes they can go 'round corners

whats up with a manual gearbox eh? Some folk like to change they're own gears, particularly if your a keen driver sorta fella

Forte il video, molto utile, vedo con piacere, che in UK esiste una vera cultura delle vecchie auto.

Non ho capito bene la parte relativa al possessore della Jag con 240000 MP diceva che andava ancora bene?????

Old Top Gear was the best and was more on everyone's level. The latest Top Gear is only good for the challenges they do sometimes, such as driving from Switzerland on a single tank of fuel (Scooby, Jag and Polo TDi).

@1100HondaCB @MrsBrownsBoysFeck I agree, but the BBC is giving the general public what they want. Ideally there needs to be a replacement program for the original format, maybe giving `Jezza` his own program where he can be a destructive muppet on his own, but I doubt it`ll happen.

[1100HondaCB]

@LondonItalian The modern Top Gear is okay sometimes, but I will always prefer the old format when they actually did realistic investigations. The "new" Top Gear with some of their challenges, I find rather silly. For example, the one when each of them had to buy a car and turn it into a police car and Richard came up with the Vitara. I thought it was crude and stupid to be fair and rather annoying. I can't relate to unrealistic non-sense like that.

[TheBoldImperator]

@LondonItalian There already is a replacement program for the original format. It's called Fifth Gear.

@1100HondaCB people now use the internet for their practical information, TV is for entertainment

[MrsBrownsBoysFeck]

I do wish Quentin was still on Top Gear. His buying guides were more interesting than any caravan crashing or Bugatti Veyron nonsense that graces the current TG.

@londoitaly è vero che l'odometro è impossibile da ritarare??? Sapevo che in italia nessuno era capace, ma neppure nella madre patria?? Vabbè che forse in uk siete più onesti, qui da noi scalano quasi sempre un buon 20% dei km ç_ç

[LondonItalian]

@raimundos88 No, sono molto onesti, non ho provato, ma lei facilmente può cambiare abbastanza il baccello di strumento...
