Hi Steve,
Yes I watch it. Although I find it hard to believe he arrived with seconds to go in a perfectly clean car. It helps watching top gear without hating the presenter. Clerkson use to really annoy me.

And a chaved up MGB....naff does not come close...I have a genuine original MGB and Evans is wrong in everything he said. No leaks. Heater works, reliable...at least Eagle and Aston rebuild to perfection the existing engine. All the Abingdon idiots do is drop a modern engine in with more power. Ken Costello did that 40 years ago with the V8 which was so good MG did the same....only Evans failed to even mention that.
