as much as i love top gear, i've just lost a mark of respect for them. some of the photochops in there are easy as pie to pick out. that orange thing with the dual axles/tank treads is chopped, clear as day. ohwells.

Top Gear didn't put the images up themselves, other people have sent them in, so you cant really blame Top Gear.

LOL!
Those cars remind me of what the old German guy I used to work with said when he saw the (old) Suzuki Swift with the huge rear wing: "It must belong to one of the new Australians".... well it sounded funny with his broad Bavarian accent.

I have some great pictures of crappy Skodas from Prague.

True that... ive seen some god-awful 'modified' falcons!!! Actually some of the most terribly modified vehicles about g-town are fords.
And there is always that yellow colt that pops up here and there too! Oh, and an AU with more decals than you can imagine. Also, dont get me started on the decklid spoilers that people make/create/adapt...
Some people dont deserve a vehicle.

End vent now........
