Top Gear Aust moves to Ch 9, gets Warne as host

Shane Warne to host Top Gear

I hereby declare the Top Gear franchise in Aust dead.
Geeez.... Warne?! Really??

Meanwhile, I never knew Warne had such a collection of cars... *jealous*

Ah, Top Gear Australia.... their special talent has been taking something like the GT-R and making it sleeping inducing:

On the radio this morning somebody made the valid point that whilst Warne is entertaining he isn't a Jeremy Clarkson with neither Clarkson's passion for cars nor Clarkson's wit and mastery of the English language. These things go a long way to making Top Gear that great show it is. Can Warne replicate that magic? In a word .... NO.

Nah  UK top gear is a special blend

walked past this beast in a showroom the other day...   i want one i want one!!! 

Now a show hosted by Warney on how to pick up chicks using SMS. That could work.

I walk by one everyday koogle!

just the special paint colour is gbp 20,000/35,000 AUD

I've been a passenger in one in London. Driver? A guy named Will.

LOL

haha...  will does not have one of them... hes in Aston

courtesy of me n my colleagues

Ahhh. Looked too quick. Thought this was an Aston. MUCH prefer the Bentley.

No wai! Astons are prettier!

I knew Sir David Brown as in 'DB;.

He was about 4'4", aged about 90 with a wife who was a knock-out aged 30 and 6'.

I like that this conversation is number 911!

But seriously, Warne? I have very low expectations. So low I won't watch.

hahaha So it is! Noice

You know, I love listening to Warne's commentary on cricket matches... Goodness knows why Ch 9 won't hire him for that instead.

I might watch - will be the tv equivalent of a car crash... you can't take your eyes away

TL 911 thread... like it!

Warne should test drive these kind of cars... would take the heat off him not being a Clarkson.

Aston's... my favourite by far: the 1965 DB5... the car that helped make James Bond the man he is.




Or..... I mean where would Batman be today without his wheels?

Oooh, that's my fav batmobile

Oh, not sure you guys have seen this - it's totally awesome!

Swede Builds His Own Batmobile For $1 Million

 It is a very nice one dek... you have good taste! I mean imagine this thing pulled up at traffic lights next to an Aston, Lamborghini or Ferrari?

I know which one I'd bet on.

LOL Well, only if it were the movie version

And yeah, I was shattered when I saw the new Batmobile. Blasphemy I says!

Once had the coolest Batmobile. It fired orange missiles from 4 cylinders positioned at an angle of 45 degrees behind the cockpit. Was designed to take out anybody giving chase. Really, really cool.

I had one too. Well, it wasn't mine, it was my brother's. I made it mine

Now I got something for ya... I think possibly THE best car chase movie scene of all time! James Bond - Die Another Day. Invisible Aston Martin vs. a Jaguar-mini-tank hybrid.

That was a good one.

The reason I hate watching Bond car chases though, is that they always leave the car mangled. It's the point of the movie I get tears in my eyes

But I take that, and raise you this

dek ill raise you this

doh!

Terrific scenes guys!   Alex, it's all there in the Bond scene above for TL marketing chat... the music, the action, super-cars... and even Halle Berry in her prime. Not to mention Mr. Bond himself.

Well then koogle.... take this!

haha...   i like the smoke function!

hehehe Genius!
I've watched this ep like 20 times, and never get sick of it.

Can't wait for our Stop n Pause button. Have tried to watch Bond 3 times!

Best Car Chase- ever! p.s- Shane Warne is a fat pig.

Clarkson Classic. "This is a very good off road car but if you're planning on invading a country, use a tank".

Oh that Ronin one is one of the all time classics
