OK, it’s a pretty quiet news day. So we’ve been surfing about a bit and have come up with a clip some smart guys have done with our Top Gear man – Jeremy Clarkson. All Top Gear fans are used to Jeremy’s facial expressions and odd mimicking of sounds. You probably remember when Tim Rice […]
Vokswagen Tiguan Reviewers- latest update
As you’ve seen before, we decided to follow what was going on with VW’s aim to find the best amateur car reviewer in their People’s Reviewer competition. So as it’s been a week or two since we last had a look, we thought we’d do a quick update. There have already been two groups of […]

Update 22/9/09: Check out our full review of the VW Tiguan R-Line As we’ve reported before, VW are busy trying to find the next Clarkson by running a ‘People’s Reviewer’ competition to find the best amateur car reviewer in the UK. And things are moving on. The voting is coming to a close on the […]
Has VW found the next Clarkson yet?
Last week we reported on a competition VW are running to promote the new Tiguan.

Top Gear reveals the Stig as – Michael Schumacher!
A new series of Top Gear is due to start in the UK on Sunday, and it looks like the TG team are starting the hype to get things moving. We soon get used to there be nothing much worth a watch on TV on Sunday evenings, and I know we usually end up trying […]
Honda Insight – the worst car in the world!
Not actually our words, we admit. But they are the words of Jeremy Clarkson, who has just done a review of the Honda Insight in his Times Online column. Do we agree? No. But only because Jeremy has done what Jeremy always does – exaggerate hugely for effect. But his points are valid, and concur […]
Top Gear has to have women – official!
In more mad tinkering by the disingenuous Harriet Harman, it has been revealed that her new legislation on equality in the workplace will be extended to the broadcast media. Which could mean that Top Gear will have to include women in its presenter line-up. You really couldn’t make this up, but New Labour are intent […]
