This is Top Gear on a budget but just as good. In some ways a lot better because I found Top Gear lost its way and didn't really care about consumer/affordable cars as time went on and was more interested in gimmicks. I made a comment but I'll say it here too - this episode hit me hard in the feels and reminded me of the roadtrips I did up north from the south east what feels like not very long ago but was practically a small lifetime ago now. My first cars, budget motoring which never cost me more than a few hundred pounds and lasting memories I didn't even know I was making at the time. Watching this and looking back reminds me of how important being mobile and able to drive was to me, and still is and as far as I'm concerned will always be. Some of the happiest times of my life have been had in cheap cars and the open road. Lads, we need to stand against everything that tries to stop our freedom to be mobile and independent. You know what I'm talking about. 'Pay as you go', new taxation, everything that's going to be thrown at us as motorists. We're all in the same boat and we want our kids to experience the same freedom as us, whether it's in a £500 Citroen or Tesla. We aren't giving up our rights to drive.

It's good but some of it is so forced and contrived. Like the fence panel. Clearly taken directly from the 'gifts' prank on the Top Gear special but just really forced here and nonsensical. There was no onus on him accepting the fence panel, it was just decided ad hoc by the director that it would be funny and so inserted in to the show to add a sense of Top Gear cameraderie. They should let the relationships develop organically. Also, please, please hire a specialist company to record the VO. It sounds like a student project. There is no inflection and no natural feeling to it. It's just flat. I think these will get better and better though. I genuinely enjoyed it

This encapsulates so much of what was great about my road trips up north with an old girlfriend who's parents lived in the far north west. We'd even roll over the boarder to Scotland when we wanted to. :) I did the trips in my first cars... A Suzuki Wagon R inherited from my dad, then the Suzuki Swift (1999) I bought as my first car to myself. Then a Skoda Felicia I bought while I was up north! And that green Saxo reminds me of the similar colour AX we bought as her first car and took all the way across the country too. It's what I loved about the freedom of driving, and still do, although post Covid haven't really done too much in the way of road trips. That has to change, and I'm inspired after seeing this episode. It was those experiences of long road trips that made me fall in love with my cars I had. They were 'bangers' bought for no more than a few hundred £s but the memories I had in them will last forever. It cemented the idea that it didn't matter what I drove, I just needed 4 wheels in my life to really enjoy it. This is proper old Top Gear business right here. I've said it before, but this stuff on presumably a low budget (I recognise those walkie talkies ;) ) and certainly a fraction of what the BBC would have at their disposal is as good as anything they've produced. Absolutely golden! All the best to the young lady you mentioned, too. I hope she makes a recovery and finds quality of life again. Please keep us updated. Edit: just donated via the gofundme link.

I agree, I had a MK1 Focus Estate and it was a superb old bus. MK1 Focuses are amazing drivers cars for what they are, they were truly revolutionary at their time of release and they had a great range of engines too . Too bad most have now rusted away and those that are left are either knackered or have had their cat's nicked by pikeys.

The very best of luck with this new project. For years I have dreamed about restoring a compact river cruiser but never had the time or money (guts!) to actually do it. So maybe, after watching your venture maybe it might be the inspiration I need…

the fact all these cars cost under 500 quid, and done such a journey, shows, that we need to stop going out and spending so much on brand new cars, when its clear, old cars are more then up to the job

Thats not the question though… You want the comfort You want the power You want the prestige You simply want to induce others to think you are doing better then they are. I drive a fairly large Bmw. And yes I ldo love that a fair amount of people think im doing better then they are, because of a bodykit and 21“ alpina classic III rims. Thats just how our society works and Im a damn slave of it. However, I also love doing 200kmh on the Autobahn for as long as I feel to, and still be able to talk in comfortable voice volume and enjoy the airride doing its work so that I can relax on my journey. And still… any other 500 buck car would be just fine… but the life quality suffers considerably :p
