The G Man Posted July 28, 2013 Share Posted July 28, 2013 But not the same that developed the combustion engine eh?, or the vaccines for measles, eh? or the first airliner to break the speed of sound, eh? Not so clever now eh? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
StevoD Posted July 28, 2013 Share Posted July 28, 2013 No but our generation will develop and use the next 'engines' due to the combustion engine having a few overlooked issues like fuel and emissions if it was that amazing im sure the sky would still be filled with them. No but with any luck we will be the generation to beat cancer, and the generations to follow mine will out do my generation no doubt.

Stutopia Posted July 28, 2013 Share Posted July 28, 2013 Only if you can put your Iphones, playstations, Ipads, Fanny Pads, down for long enough. Is it not a bit harsh lumping anyone who's got any kind of modern electronic device into one pot? If we're doing that sort of thing. What is the approved list of diversions for someone who grew up in the post spinning top era? Also, how does the rating system work? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

spursmaddave Posted July 29, 2013 Author Share Posted July 29, 2013 G Man is "Jag Ready" Sounds good to me I enjoyed last nights more than I have for a long time, yes it was contrived and hardly anything new justca re-hash of race + caravan etc but it worked and was funny.... It's the reason I keep watching for the odd bit of gold.... it was more car orientated too for a change... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ekona Posted July 29, 2013 Share Posted July 29, 2013 Everyone loves a Singer. I saw some of this last night, the bit with Hammond driving the Sesto Elemento. It was gash. Poorly scripted, not funny, not particularly well shot, and zero emotion of the car. It disturbs me how one of my favourite car journos, Dickie Meaden, can be involved in something so incredibly tedious. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Suits Posted July 29, 2013 Share Posted July 29, 2013 Guys if you like that Singer there's an excellent Chris Harris on cars vid where he goes to the factory/garage in Cali and talks to the team that build/designs/picks the car. Culminates in him driving it on the road and track, very well done and a great video. Well worth a watch if you like the Singer or not. :teeth: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

choptop Posted July 29, 2013 Share Posted July 29, 2013 They have already done the caravaning micky take a few season's ago so nothing new there. That racetrack Lambo was awesome if just a tad expensive for my liking................ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
