ste91 Posted November 16, 2008 Posted November 16, 2008 Fucking brilliant episode lol, V8 food blender and modding some shitty Renault. Quote
addz Posted November 16, 2008 Posted November 16, 2008 As per usual top gear was ironic.Wouldnt mind them brakes Quote
ste91 Posted November 16, 2008 Posted November 16, 2008 Made me laugh how they had decent brakes, suspension, and tyres, but failed miserably on the spoiler/splitter. Quote
SR17 Posted November 16, 2008 Posted November 16, 2008 another quality episode i saw them on sunday when visiting MPHanyone else go out of interest? Quote
5T4R7ET N/A Posted November 16, 2008 Posted November 16, 2008 good episode. wud of been funny if they stuck a turbo on it and left the rest standard.cant wait till they show the bugatti veyron. bet its the last episode in the series Quote
dubdan Posted November 16, 2008 Posted November 16, 2008 oh man what a wicked show love it every time! love to see a v8 stair lift! Quote
starlybruiser Posted November 16, 2008 Posted November 16, 2008 oh man what a wicked show love it every time! love to see a v8 stair lift!^^ha ha yeah, they should have put a huge turbo on the renault tho Quote
AdamG Posted November 16, 2008 Posted November 16, 2008 ^^ha ha yeah, they should have put a huge turbo on the renault tho + 1 or two one for each side of the block Quote
Faisal_Sol Posted November 17, 2008 Posted November 17, 2008 Great episode.Hats of to the Stig, he made cornering look easy in that big Renault. Quote
ste91 Posted November 17, 2008 Posted November 17, 2008 Great episode.Hats of to the Stig, he made cornering look easy in that big Renault.That little "drift" at the end was fucking great. Quote
SpeedFreak Posted November 17, 2008 Posted November 17, 2008 They should of spent more money on power IMO!! Quote
Si@Fiske Posted November 17, 2008 Posted November 17, 2008 it was as epic as usual... lovely ap's they poped on that avantime lol Quote
Guest Enzo Posted November 17, 2008 Posted November 17, 2008 That little "drift" at the end was fucking great.about the only great part of the show.they had 10gs to spend on that car ffs, instead of doing the most rediculus things it would have been good if they took it serieusly and actualy tried to beet it properly Quote
Mikey Jay Posted November 17, 2008 Posted November 17, 2008 Would of helped if they used a more suitable car to begin with (one that isn't 2 metres tall )Was dissapointed there wasn't actually any car reviews though Quote

Oh I nearly forgot - did you get my PM's mate as you haven't replied I'm not sure if they sent or not. Quote
Bildo Posted November 17, 2008 Posted November 17, 2008 Good concept with the spend £10k.. Badly pulled off though.Could've just got some better brakes for a few hundred, £3000 is just ridiculous. Was so obvious the wheels wouldn't fit over them aswell.I normally love them just having a laugh but I was actually quite disappointed they didn't bother trying to do it properly on a good experiment.

ste91 Posted November 17, 2008 Posted November 17, 2008 Yeah, and they they make the sweeping statement that all money spent modifying a car is money wasted....My guess is that it's because all they see on the streets are idiots with stupid spoilers or whatever and they did this whole thing as a piss take, they could have done so much with £10k.

AdamG Posted November 17, 2008 Posted November 17, 2008 should write a suggestion and send some enthusiasts from different car clubs to take in the challenge im sure we could do better Quote
Galliano Posted November 17, 2008 Posted November 17, 2008 that was not a shitty Renault.. i love the Avantimes, they are teh ubes either way, was a good episode, but i wanna go to Toyota city Quote
Sparky Posted November 17, 2008 Posted November 17, 2008 I agree with Geo the drift was the only real good bitThose brakes where class although overkill springs to mind!!Pretty sure the avantime is back on one of the episodes near the end of the series bigger and badder than ever, remember seeing it on the 1st episode but it was completely differentby the way I have never seen an avantime in my life!! Quote
Bourkey Posted November 17, 2008 Posted November 17, 2008 Only ever seen 2 of them ever. To be honest i thought they made it look quite smart (except the spoiler and mdf of course). That suspension was cool and i also thought the brakes were a bit over kill!! I thought it was good how James managed to get a ton of power just from the servicing and minor parts.That toyota thing is mint. I really want one. You would look daft but thats the best bit.Bourkey Quote
Sparky Posted November 17, 2008 Posted November 17, 2008 The Tyota thing is just for lazy people who dont want to walk everywhere Quote
briggers Posted November 17, 2008 Posted November 17, 2008 im so annoyed i missed it last night. saw the last 10 mins i was gutted. aghhh when is the repeat? Quote
