Well, I thought for a minute that I saw some useful motoring information on tonight's Driven. But then I realised it was just the adverts!

FFS eggs on a 2CV competition? Fester review? WNAK!!!

Yeah, lots of nonsense. I see they have a shootout between the Boxster S and the Tamora next week. I'll watch that just to see if they manage to totally destroy what should be an interesting piece of journalism...

I watched all of it tonight (purely for research purposes you understand) It was in fact an anti car transmission. There is no way anyone watching it could be left with the impression that motoring was anything other than a pastime for sad ****ers. I mean who cares about whether the C3 is better than the fester? This is like would you like to die in a French peasants pram? Or perhaps sir would prefer to be bored to death by the offering from FORD as in everything we do is crashed by you. Oh and for evaluatiuon purposes lets get some ****wits to do the judgeing. At least one male joined the fester group because he wanted to **** the blonde, hence never mind the performance just look at my knob.

And so to the bird brain competitions. Look everyone
today we have some sad tossers pushing cars up aginst each other. WTF for? Now we have eggs in a bowl on an earlier version of the french peasants pram ?????? FFS eggs are cheap just smash the lot and get ther quick. I mean what is this shite all about? Next it will be whats the best car to have a haircut in? Or which car can accomodate a Pizza oven and its staff while negotiating a treck through the Nile delta, shit we all drowned but the meaty feast was great.
The producers of drivel have lost the plot and I am going to complain. Now later on Ali G..... Now there was a motoring programme with class. It had loads of totty and took the piss out of the greens, superb effort.

Why do the producers of motoring, or indeed any, consumer programme, feel the need to have it fronted by some tosser speaking estuary English? Does that make it more "hip" (cats!), and hey, give it some street cred? No, it just means we get crap opinions in a crap voice. Arfur Daley syndrome, innit? Trust that opinion then....

Spot on, old chap.

Didn't bother watching it, prolly won't again, unless I hear it's changed -- like they've decided to talk about cars.

Switched over to watch "A Car is Reborn" again half way through Drivel. Seen it countless times before, but I would rather see a man get on with building an E Type that a bunch of sad tw@ts in 2CVs with eggs on their bonnet. I could only think that the production team for Drivel has Johnny Knoxville and Stuart Hall on it. What a load of absolute wnak.
