Mister Kingdom posted:I've been watching the new Wheeler Dealers. Mike is still Mike. Ant is pretty good, and he definitely knows his poo poo, but I don't find him as personable as Edd. Yeah, I miss Edd but it's still got nearly the same level of decent wrench turning content, Ant definitely seems legit. Still better than the trash that passes as car shows on TV otherwise.

Colostomy Bag posted:I was expecting the show to be somewhat ruined based on Edd's statements when he quit. But yeah, it's identical. Ant is good in the fabrication department as well. Some of the mechanical bits do seem to be more glossed over now. In the latest episode (the Dodge van) they started off with "so I removed the engine" and didn't show a single bit of it. Still not bad though.

Powershift posted:And it's loving trash Boy are you wrong on this one. I have zero tolerance for trash reality tv and forced drama. Hyperdrive seems like it'll go that direction towards the beginning, and the other commentators kind of suck, but the show gets amazing. You should really give it another shot if you only watched one or two.

Cojawfee posted:They should just give up already. Either find a team and stick with them, or stop trying. You can't get over the hump of three people awkwardly interacting if you keep assembling new groups of people. That's the thing! They got past that hump and then some with the last crew. Bleh.

So-so episode. The Dart was kind of badass. I legit cracked up and had to pause it when the back fell off the Trans Am. Looked like the rear end was held in with rebar somehow, lol.

Pretty solid ep yesterday. The F40/XJ220 segment was great. Paddy's off with the Diablo was painful though, but at least of the three that was probably the least valuable? Wonder who lent them that car and how that phone call went. I was also cringing along with Chris when that RS was getting beat up, but I was super glad he got it fixed up.

Agreed loved seeing Tanner cane all the cool cars they got. There was an amazing shot of him doing a slow drift at very high speeds in I think it was a Shelby Mustang of some flavor.

wolrah posted:I'm surprised the AWD systems in both the Focus and the Bentley held up as well as they did. Neither are designed for off road use with constant slip, I would have expected them to have had heat issues. Hammond mentioned a howling front wheel bearing in the RS, but yeah, I was thinking about that too. I'm sure the diffs weren't happy at the least.

Cojawfee posted:Surely they had to know that from the beginning. Unless the Bentley fell off a truck. When they first showed the cars I thought they were all new so I wondered about that, but later on they show the cluster in the Bentley briefly and it had ~70k km IIRC.

CornHolio posted:I don't know, honestly the last couple of seasons of Top Gear USA were up there alongside original Top Gear if you ask me. The three presenters had distinct personalities and great chemistry, and the fact that every episode was a challenge of some sort made for some great TV. Agreed. It had fully hit its stride when they cancelled it.

New Top Gear America is somehow getting worse as the season goes on. I could barely finish the episode 2 weeks ago and have had no desire to watch more. It's just completely devoid of any fun and is way too staged even by Top Gear standards.
