Well, the first show was very disappointing. It wont last long if they are all like that.

Yes,
Lacked that clasic Clarkson humor, and had too many 'Aussie-isms'. Keep that for the Poms!
Bring back the original.

As soon as it started and I saw the set was the same I thought this is going to be lame... It was very lame  Haydn couldn't believe how bad it was. I'm disappointed! Surely they can do a more fair dinkum show and not try and do an exact copy of the pommie one I'm sure all of Australia thinks the same and will say what was that crap, imagine what Clarkson would say of it! |

I can recall the day Australia went to the dogs...
The day that I had to pay for sauce on my pie.

I didn't bother watching it. Like wow, we test a hsv and england test a DB9... We will never have the range of exotic cars to make a decent show compared to europe. Next week special will be the Camira vs Sigma shootout. Ha.  |

I believe it was more like $300,000 per episode!
Still, a lot of money for a show that may flop! I'll give it a go for a while, and try to look at it as a show in it's own right.

The first one lost me. It did not get a second chance.
