    I don’t know how the hell that other guy is still even allowed to present the cars… absolutely annoys me …

  2. MatthewM says:

    Why the hell isn’t the Audi using DSG?

  3. mistertwo says:

    The “other guy” is Jason Plato, a British Touring Car driver – and a very good one at that. Doesn’t mean he’s any good at TV presenting though.

  4. Chaser says:

    yeah I hear ya ^^ , in one of the earlier episodes he was trying to take a Brabus/Amg Merc to its top speed and just the manner he presented that segment in, was absolutely trash..

    should be banned from presenting such fine cars :P

    Jason Plato races for SEAT which of course is owned by VW-so don’t be suprised if he criticises certain makes of cars.
    I do agree though,he is annoying.

  6. Jason says:

    And its not a V10, its a V8…the v10 is planned, but not out yet.

    Gee I don’t both guys are clearly having fun at the time!

    Unless you have owned a Porsche its hard to understand how good they are ! Audi …….yep you have come a longgggggg way.But for pure pose and badge value nothing beats the Porsche here. Back end has always hung out you just have to learn to trust it when your going around a tight right hander believe me.

    What you don’t trust is a granny in a Corolla . In 1986 had just had delivered a new 911 Porsche and in 1987 a granny in a Corolla did a U turn in front of me ! At 60 KS she hit me and I can tell you the front guard of the Porsche cost $6000.00 to repair at that time . My 2 year old had a Porsche childs seat on him and hardly woke up .Porsche is a great car and always has seemed to be the pinnacle of the spots cars to meet.If you have to buy a true sports car with history its the Porsche,hands down!!!!!!!!!!!!Their noise is like a Rex,you can pick it with out seeing it! Oh and I had 2 weeks before just put my new BMW 325i on her side,dont ask,not my fault either! Thats why I was driving hubbys new 911 . Never mind we still had the A9X to do the shopping in . True!
