I do love his reviews. Much more in depth and technical than top gears. Obviously as it would make for terrible viewing figures as the great British public would rather see some set up race than hear about the differential or what ever.
Brilliant watch

I agree with Flaffy.

Great review. These work well with Top Gear, ones fun ones serious, perfect combo.

My brother will be getting his hands on one in a few months and I seriously can't wait to go and check it out.
I wasn't too sure on the looks when they first came out, but now I'm 100% in love with them.

Top gear don't have half an hour to spend on one review, that's what /Drive is for, perfect format

No, it hasn't been delivered yet. The colour is actually a secret and he won't tell anyone what he ordered as he wants it to be a surprise. I hope it's something pretty lairy.

Monkey is great.
Don't know why people are comparing to Top Gear etc. would hate it if I only had one motoring show to watch. Love having the choice and perspective with tG, 5Gear and Drive plus others.
Top Gear review was brilliant, as was this. For different reasons.
Variety is the spice of life kids

TG review was poor, eating a shoe and screaming like a child when it went fast.
At least Harris interviewing the guy from McLaren came across like they both knew their trade.
If you ask a girl what car she has and she says 'a red one', you're quick enough to call her out - but that's what Clarkson reminds me of. Its so fast, oohh weeeeehh oohh waaaa

Top Gear isn't what it once was. If you want a serious review of a car, don't watch it.
