i know someone who got one of those and did €25k worth of damage to it on his second day of owning it.
he's now bought a porsche 911 GT3.

I'm learning to drive this year and I too have started noticing cars, and watching Top Gear for that matter... I don't understand it but I just laugh when the audience do and feel okay

I've also started to notice how much cars cost too... uh...

The Top Gear tv show is a bit sickening I find. They test cars and talk shite about top speeds of 200 mph and great handling etc. Which are largely irrelevant facts because most people will drive them on motorways and can never go above 70 (except maybe in Germany).

I had a car for a couple of years but ditched it after realising the amount I spent on tax and insurance and fuel was not giving me a good return i.e. I wasn't using it enough. I'm now obsessed with getting a campervan: does the same as a car, for roughly the same cost, can sleep four people and makes espressos!

the brother was talking over dinner the other day about making his own biofuel with chip fat, he said it was easy

would you watch a show which featured sober tests of the latest kia people carrier?

I would, if it was done as a buildup to wrecking it in a mildly amusing fashion.

I did, I thought it was quite good

While I agree with Maims Bond's point, I think it's more car festish culture, why make a car that goes 200+ MPH? Because there is a market for it (for whatever machismo/penis envy/napolean complex you want to blame it on) so why not have a TV show to cater for it? And as a show Top Gear is pretty great, lively presenters, very laid back pally manner, the direction and photography of the wee sequences is amazing (seriously amazing) and even a thicko like me can watch and get some sort of entertaiment value out of it

so boo too car fetish culture, but fair play to the Beeb and Top Gear
