Alternative "Top Gear" lineup announced ..
Sabine Schmitz and Chris Harris are joining the team no less .. !
Atom 3 310 Supercharged (2011), Now Sold
Re: Alternative "Top Gear" lineup announced ..
Eddie Jordan though!
Atom 4, Clio v6, & some other cars obviously.
Re: Alternative "Top Gear" lineup announced ..
Matt Leblanc....really!!!!!
I think Chris Harris & Sabine deserve a place - unsure about Eddie Jordan.
The rest however - well Mr Evans can't drive and talk or drive fast without spewing his guts up by all accounts.
Should never have tried to carry the series on after the departure of the three.
I might be wrong but seems BBC were choking the original show and it seemed like it was going to slowly die a death anyway.
Hoping that the Amazon show will free up some constraints & make it better than the old Top Gear which in all fairness shouldn't be hard.

Re: Alternative "Top Gear" lineup announced ..
Matt Leblanc got the fastest celebrity lap time in the reasonably priced car, so he's a petrol head ..
I think the new lineup can work, I've not written it off yet.

I think it can work too so long as they make sure EJ keeps to the script and doesn't ramble on and on and on!
Whatever happens, we will have two car shows to get stuck into.
Now, which way do I point me aerial to get an Amazon signal??

Chris Harris? The monkey will be great.
Sabine...? Well, she can drive the 'Ring, but can she present the family-friendly features of a Vauxhall Astra?
EJ... Nooooooooo unless they're just using his little black book to get people's phone numbers
Matt leBlanc? See Sabine... Nice guy though and obviously just there to make up for Top Gear USA
Stig? Why not... it's a simple idea and the beeb owns it
Rory? My goodness, he's black! Sure therefore to rake in the ethnic minorities. Seriously, he's had a bit of experience online, so he should be pretty good.
Chris Evans? The jury is out. On his day he makes great TV... but he makes the worst sort of sh1t TV as well. Of course he's a car nut, but is that enough to make a decent car show presenter?

The problem with the BBC they think Top Gear is a motoring show, Its 3 mates clowning around usually in fast cars and having a laugh, a comedy show. I think Top Gear stopped being a motoring programme when Woollard left.
We would all as car nuts love to have the chance to mess around in fast cars and act daft. Lets keep it light hearted.

Re: Alternative "Top Gear" lineup announced ..
I got the impression the 3.5r review was due to be broadcast in one of the following weeks just as the show was halted?
Will we ever see those last shows or will they be available on eyeplayer I wonder.
Would have been nice to see the 3.5r top the leaderboard.
