Somewhere I actually found the paint code to that R50 she us standing next to... MINI only made a handfull of them in that pink, and all of them thankfully stayed on that side of the Atlantic... (Just a useless fact for something to do)

 

Agreed, but I kinda like that color... on her.

 

Will be interesting to see who makes up the rest of the cast.

 

I heard a rumor that the entire original cast is going to do a new show exclusively on Netflix.

Doubt its true, but it would be nice.

 

:fingerscrossed:

 

This is the new guy. :lol:

 

If it stumbles.... Chris could always invite Clarkson, Hammond and May on the show for a little rejuvenation...

 

I just skimmed through Chris Evans on Wikipedia and if the BBC thought Jeremy Clarkson had a few problems this guy could very well make them rue the day they signed him for three years.

 

He definitely isn't a wallflower!

 

I could understand him. However, I once stopped for directions at a store on the motorway near Stratfford, and the clerk told me three times, and I went back to the car having no idea what she said.

Jay did turn down the US version.

 

That might be worth watching!

to quote my son: "whatever"

Even if Dumbledore himself was to host the new Top Gear, it will be a bust and the ratings will drop.

from the BBC itself, Analysis: David Sillito, BBC media and arts correspondent:

"Chris Evans is one of Britain's most successful broadcasters. He loves cars, he understands how to make television and he's a friend of Jeremy Clarkson. But he ain't Jeremy Clarkson.

Around the World Top Gear has appeared in different forms. The ones that work best have Jeremy Clarkson - even if he has to be dubbed into Farsi. "
