    I like the current Top Gear lineup.

    I think, once you accept that it's going to change from time to time, like James Bond or Doctor Who, you'll get more from it.

    If anything, you're getting more with Top Gear and The Grand Tour!

    I just wish there was something that catered for your average Joe, where they'll talk about the number of cupholders in the latest SUV, but also gaze longingly at that sporty saloon, like the majority of us have to!
    5th Gear was closest to that.

      5th Gear was close but besides Tiff the other presenters were annoying.

        I think Tiffany Butler-Henderson should get more screen time.
        She's passionate about driving and is a really engaging presenter without having to resort to that Top Gear way of speaking - "You're supposed to leave traction control on... but we're going to trash it, like a naughty schoolboy."

          Out of boredom one day I watched the last series of Top Gear with the new team, and I was actually shock at just how...........good I found it. It was a lot of fun. I couldn't get on with the line up with Matt Le Blanc though, absolutely wooden.

              I stopped watching Top Gear after Clarkson, May and Hammond left

              Oddly, I stopped watching Grand Tour at the end of season 2. Been watching season 3 in the evenings this week and, by God, I've missed the ridiculousness of them messing about and just having a laugh

                Season 3 it really hit its stride.

                  Up to episode 9 and the Citroen C3 thing is hilarious!

                    Yeah, the 3rd series of the Grand Tour is very good. The 1st was a bit crap, especially that celebrity section and the 2nd series improved a lot of things but the 3rd is where it shines.

                      In a car group I'm in on Facebook, they did a virtual car show with guest speakers and she was listing her favourite cars and her eyes were sparkling with enthusiasm when she spoke about the F40.

                      I know it sounds like I fancy her, but I find her enthusiasm refreshing without falling back on the schoolboy antics and/or complete lack of knowledge from the other shows.

                        I think the mongolia special was best. It really felt like they were genuinely struggling with it all.

                          Do you mean Vicki Butler Henderson?
                          Or is there another Butler Henderson I don't know of?

                          If it's Vicki then I remember when she used to write for Max Power Magazine
                          She's always loved cars

                              I don't know what happened there.
