Why was the aston ruined with a gay powder blue colour?
Looked much better in the dark red in the studio!
Gotta say, though, I was bored with this show as well, might be over expecting it.

I like car reviews but some expeditions/challenges

It was surprisingly good actually. Generally, you see an aston and it has to be anthracite grey. They just are. But that looked good!

The colour was a good change for the aston, i really liked it. Much better than the swamp colours they usually come in.

Hardly anything happened in this program. Everyone I watched it with thought the laser planes were cool but i found it a bit irrelevant and frankly boring after a few minutes!

Yeah that laser bit was too long and predictable. Theyre on a track so its obvious where there going to go. If they did that with some 4x4s and a military site like with the tank it would have been better

I for one thought that out of all 3 of those cars, that LFA was pure sex even the colour was amazing!
But have to agree with the majority, this episode was a little shit to say the least was going to switch off but gave it the benefit of the doubt!

I much prefer the episodes where they are in a £500 banger doing a funny task.
The £10000suckmyleftoneDan!000000 super cars do nothing for me at all.
Fifth gear is back on soon.. i'll have a gander at that this year I think!

What is the point of having a subaru exactly the same as the gt86? I don't get it?
Did actually quite like the mustang though, shame its cheap and plasticy inside and only does 12mpg lol, but its not a daily tbf.

Do you not realise how many cars are exactly the same with a different badge?

Tom loads and loads of manufacturers do that. Joint venturing means they both get more value for money because individually they have to put in less for R&D but they get a very well designed car that will sell well.
And i think that stang was beautiful. Not normally my cup of tea but that was good! Would rather have a original though...

No? Not exactly the same. I know most share a platform (golf, octavia, a3 or 106 and saxo for example) but not that are exactly the same?
