Another extremely entertaining episode of TGUS. Anyone not watching is missing out. There wasn't even a SIARPC, just 42 minutes of hilarity.

Mister Kingdom posted:The episode where the boys have to buy a super luxury car for the same price (or less) as the Nissan Pixo is on BBCA. Any idea if they'll tell us how they did in the long run? Was just watching that. IIRC, a couple episodes later they brought it up again, they both had lolmassive repairs. Still want the 850.

Sir Tonk posted:Also, really looking forward to the next season of TGUSA. Did Rutledge say if they were going to change the format at all? Their run-time is tragically short for all the content they try to include. They really need to drop SIARPC. The episodes they've had without it have been much better.

My favorite part was the look on Rut's face when Adam was bouncing the Mustang up that really tough rocky hill. The one where the whole front end went up and down like a lowrider. I would have loved to see a better conclusion showing what condition the two cars left were in. What was left of the suspensions, etc.

neckbeard posted:Saw the new 'Worst Car in the History of the World' video today. Pretty good, a lot less fluff than their usual direct-to-dvd specials. Needed more Pontiak Aztek though, but I'm happy with their selection of worst car all things considered Lexus SC 430 Yup it was a fun watch for sure. First time they had the FT-86 also, wonder if they'll have it on the regular show. Not too surprised Clarkson loved it.

Cojawfee posted:My sister had a 97 SC400 for a few years, and it wasn't terrible. I think it was helped that it wasn't a convertible, so you could actually fit 4 people in the car. She bought it used though, so it probably wasn't as bad as buying it new. It was a fun car to drive. Though to be fair, my options at the time were that, a Lexus ES300, and a Crown Victoria. I would nominate Crown Victoria for one of the best cars of all time. Completely different car than the SC430

Mister Kingdom posted:I'll be the odd man out and say the rugby thing went on a bit too long. I've always been curious when they do the car sports thing and beat the poo poo out of a bunch of brand new cars; who pays for them? Does the BBC buy them all then fix them? Rent them and fix them afterwards? Sell for parts? Aside from the body damage I'm sure the drivetrains take a beating too.

Yeah the Veyron bit was pointless, but the rest was gold. I loved Rut's reveal of his car "...so I added a 100 wet shot of nitrous". A little upset it didn't grenade his engine though.

Cojawfee posted:Yeah, there's no way they bought those cars for 1500. That's about 2200 USD and I can find early 90s 850s for about that. The 850r was started in 96, so I can't see them getting one under the limit. Those cars have to have major problems or they cheated. Aren't used cars considerably cheaper in the UK though?

I'm still really enjoying TGUS for the most part. But yeah, even with a DVR, they spend so much god damned time explaining what's going to happen after the commercial, then after it, explaining what happened before it. Loved Rut's obvious Subie. I also had no idea Tanner's 300ZX changed to a TT and back.
