The clutch itself will probably be something from Sachs or the like.

Is it me or ?

I am finding Top Gear rather repetitive and similar to previous shows just doing the head to head thing with different cars. It definitley needs a re think . Yes the episode yesterday was ok but don't you think we have seen it all before. Not original anymore . Needs some new blood and a woman would be nice like Sabine from the Nurburgring or VBH . Make it a bit competitive between the presenters , voting on our favourites etc......no hang on a minute we have plenty of voting shows already  :evilgrin:

The Lambo brakes got cooked by a Noob trying to go fast IMO.
But just a guess, i would still like a set of ceramic brakes for the golf  :love:

Over the top mod list ;o)

If they're gonna get a woman in, they should use the bird in the brown top with the sword in Italy. She had a nice pair of, um, eyes!  :drool: :drool:

Loved the Lambo and its "thrust mode"  :driver: Looks better than the reventon IMO too.

The GTI isn't just a machine. It's very much a living, breathing thing.

Think this one was a bit crap. Loved the hybrid car thing though!

It's the car that's used in the new series of 2 and half men. That fezza 4wd system is an interesting thing ie how the engine controls the gears for the front wheels

Mods yes but way too many to stick in this little box

Yeah it is, but was a crap review of the system on snow! Hardly intended to use on snow! So non the wiser of the system, unless people want to use a 200k super car to take family on a ski holiday :signLOL: but I suspect they also have a range rover for that
BMW 335d msport touring lci. Auto, estate and diesel! Oh no

I agree, however, that is how Ferrari marketed it. All the initial preview images and videos showed it on snow.



That Bentley V8 sounds brutal.
