Top Gear

Gutted for the EVO7… I’ve driven a couple, and they are immense cars, even if it was owned by a crook, it didn’t deserve that….

The Panamerica looked a bit 'odd' too...

Do you actually believe any of the topgear "story lines" nowadays?

Big up the royal mail, say no to privatisation!!

[Big Lee M]

The Evo was bought with dirty money so to crush it,fair play. If they sold it on who keeps the money? The Government, if so there would be hell to pay for that as well so nobody would be happy would they????????

Good work by the Royalmail too.

I want a Renault track car like that just shows what weight does to power.

No, it's all political now... And binning an Evo7, even if it was a Drug Dealers car, how does that help the tax payer... Surely they'd be better off selling it and banking the value to reduce the tax burden???

The only problem i see with selling it, it would prob cost more than the car is worth in admin and auctioneers fees. Some real EVO guys prob going mad at it though.

[AquaS2]

They had 2 cossys there! And they didnt even drive one!..
Is it me or does that focus look lush in that green?

[Colesy]

No need to destroy the evo, sell it and tax less is surely common sense?!

The last feature seemed like a bit of an army advert dressed up as british bulldog, not that there's anything wrong with promoting the army but it would be good if they were straight up.

A lot of their stories now seem to be largely set up and choreographed but then put forward as not as if we're stupid or something.

Still good but not as good as it used to be.

If the gubbinsment can requisition stately homes and even half a county (Wiltshire) when it suites them, let alone under fund the poor ******s they send in to battle on 'our' behalf... I'm sure the dynamics of legitimately selling a car purchased from ill gotten means isn't beyond the whit of man...

I just think there is a limit to 'nice' things that get destoyed... And that was beyond it...

It is the BBC remember

[goodall]

it felt very like a propagandist show today, telling us how are royal postal service was so good, how are crown courts had put away a good for nothing drug dealer and how mighty the british army was.
was good entertainment none the less, i just feel theres a hidden agenda, or am i just sounding like one those pale faced nerds you see in the movies that rave on about conspiracy...

liked the evo, if was only 8k pure steal in comparison to the price of them over here

Nothing wrong with giving us some feel good British propoganda, the forces are having a tough time of things at the mo and need us, 'the people', behind them . As for the Evo, it did give a hilarious bit of TV when Clarkson was driving it sans roof

Shame they didn't drive the old Fords but then it's not like a 5th Gear shootout where you actually get to see the cars go round the track, it's all Bourne Identity style, vomit inducing 'arty' camera work...

The R26.R is was faster but stick the RS on trackday tyres and it would be a very different story on the track time board. The Megane looks nicely finished for a stripped out racer, good work Renault for having the balls to go fo it, more of the same please mr. Car Manufacturer

I'm working on my very own clubsport / S2.R at the mo, it's all good fun

I'll give it a try, thanks

There are loads of police auctions going on that cars bought with dirty money like these are usually sold! The money from the auctions gets absorbed some how and the Government still TAXES the B'jesus out of us!
Thing is the Evo is or was a great car! It was a drug dealers car ie a crook bet the judge who sent him down was dodgy any how!??
I'm not political at all!
It was bloody good to see a car like that actually getting used rather than polished and pimped!

I think we love cars too much!!!

Nuff said, still love Top Gear though!!!
