top gear???

Post by pheonix_knight » Fri Jul 11, 2008 3:29 pm

Anyone from UK who has seen the 'Dave' channel may well have noticed that there are 3 million episodes of Top Gear evey week (not quite but you know what i mean...)

any way i was watching a couple of days ago to an episode from a few years ago and at one point they were making their own stretched cars and as one of them was coming toward the camera, they used the Knight Rider theme...

but also later in the same episode they reviewed the ford mustang gt500 (obviously not the KR version because that wasnt out at the time)

strange....

I dont think they thought alot of the Shelby version, all I remember was "goes fast in a straight line", although good things were said about the Roush.

they slated the gt500 as they seem to with every american car on the basis that they dont corner well...

Dave is a UK freeview channel dubbed "The home of witty banter", they show alot of comedy programs and motoring shows , Top Gear, Fifth Gear and such like. Its a very lad orientated channel. :)
