You probably just saw it, but good for a laugh.

One good episode last week, followed by some utter sh*t tonight!

Don't get me wrong, still watched it to the end!

I am a Top Gear fan boy, but the Peugeot feature was the worse yet imo.

Agree it was good up until the Peugeot bit, kept expecting it to go somewhere and it never did.

same sentiments - they played the Pugeot mong bit to death time and time again. It was dire.

Such a shame - thought the La F bit was fairly poor also tbh. Shame. I've seen one and they are epic! So many things to take in and they featured about none of them....

Embarrassing that Ferrari Mclaren and Porsche tied them up in beurocracy to stop them lapping them! These are racing cars built to race... Get on with it!
