23:30 Today
ITV1 London
Pulling Power
First in a new series. Mike Brewer and Mike Rutherford pitch Solihull's new Range Rover Sport against a Porsche Cayenne, and reveal how you can adapt your car stereo to take an MP3 player. They also get a sneak preview of Skoda's new soft-roader

Don't know if it will be any good but i thought i'd let you know:)

Oh dear, I know why it's on at half eleven now.
Won't be watching the second half.

v poor, both cars had strengths, well obviously, fancy enlightening us?

That programme was very very very bad. Poor choice of presenters, both 'cheeky' cockney chapies, who do not work that well together. Some of the footage looked worse than I have managed on various trackdays.

Oh. My. God.

I wish the peeps @ ITV would com and pick some of us PHers to present and decide on content. I honestly believe that I I could do a better job, and I mean that. I happen to know of plenty who'd do a better job! "Pulling power" (and awful name for a car show IMHO) remains truly crap and it only pi55ed me off more because TG's 11:20 repeat wasn't on for some reason? Finalgear it is then.....

I only caught it while flicking through the channels. I assumed by the program’s title "Pulling Power" that it was some sort of silly dating game show.

I only got to see half of it but what a God awful show. The item on replacing a car stereo, what was that all about??

I won’t be setting the video for next week.

v.poor. switch over to the "animal planet" and whatch "the cheetah family" instead. Inspiring documentry about the life of cheetahs in the plains.

Chav programme on the chav channel, for chavs. Not worth switching over for. Brewer & Rutherford ? No thanks.

[kerfuffle]

Very dull programme. The presenters are very low rent, as were the features. And what was the point of explaining that the cars would be used almost entirely on road, driving on roads and then saying that a track would be the real test. Surely the real test is on roads? And for God's sake, try and muster some enthusiasm lads!

YES!!! Missed sunday, thought I missed the repeat, searched everywhere for it.

I'm in love with the SLR

I usually tape Sunday's TG for viewing at my convenience during the week. Watched it last night and I have to admit it cheers me up.

I wonder how much the Beeb had to fork out for the two wrecked power boats?

[r988]

that bmw m3 with the dials mounted under the dash and with a video camera pointing to them and displaying them on a pixelated screen has got to be one of the stupidest most pointless mods ever done. I couldn't even be bothered watching to the end of the show.

[Kinky]

Well I taped it last night to watch tonight .... looks like I won't even bother, and just delete (good old Sky +).

a bit like that Chelsea tractor with the Porsche badges on it

[Nicol@]

I have recorded it, to watch tonight.

Surely there must have been something reasonable in the show?

Sadly not, the more I think about it the more I could have done better myself. By that I mean presenting, editing and filming. Must have had a production budget of about 4 pence

In a word Rubbish!

when they took they cayenne and the RR sport round that track, why were they going so damn slowly? may as well have been off road..

...booooooooooring!

[Raify]

I felt like it robbed me of 30 mins of my life. This sort of cr@p should be consigned to ITV2 at 3am on Tuesday morning.
