Default Top Gear Aus - Right for once

OK who watched the last episode. I haven't been watching during the season, but thought that this being the last of the series, it'd be worth a watch.

I was right.

Ford Vs Holden: round 2 : Pov pack

All I can say is that I’m stunned they got it right this time.

The ford absolutely smoked the Holden in the drag race. 2-3 car lengths.
Lost the brake test by about a bonnet length.
Handling test was hard to tell what they liked.


Decision was the FG was by far the better car. : Finally, some journo’s admit it.

Then the icing on the cake, the lap. 1.5s+ faster than the Holden :::


And then, even better. A rant telling people to buy these cars (Fords and Holden's), or we'll end up with FWD pieces of Japanese crud. :


So, what did we all think?

Lets just hope that this opens some people's eyes to just how good these FG things are. And that aussie cars are worth it.

Cheers
