Yep I like James, big improvement. I also like the professional racing driver category. That'll get a bit competitive I'm sure.

JM's definitely a lot better than Mr Shouty but then he's been an entertainer for a lot longer.

If they don't try too hard then they're streets ahead of last years efforts

Watched it for 10 minutes then turned it off. It can't compete with the UK version as that is absolute class.

It was pretty good. The shouty pom was alright but James is better. The pom's big problem was he came over as shouty when actually he is quite knowledgable and was a great race car driver. They need to do more sh!tbox challenges. Its quite entertaining watching them drive old cars around the place and having to keep them going. Aussie Top Gear could do it more often too and it wouldn't cost all that much either.

The best thing about the UK Top Gear are the challenges. Jet skis vs lambos is fine but really is it relevant to 99% of the population? How about driving from Canberra to Sydney vs catching a plane if they both start in Bankstown and have to get to parliament house with the plane people using public transport.

Myehh.. bored stoopid by the ever-annoying Jemery Plonkerface, in the UK show, so can't watch that much anymore and the Aussie twat cartoonist who fancies himself as commedian (and is certainly NOT) is waaaayyyyy worse!

Would be nice to actually have the focus a bit back to the cars - not so much the self adoration of the presenters I reckon.

watched it and still rekon its ****e compared to its master the uk version
