Tiff is just so much cooler than Jeremy Clarkson. You can tell he likes to drive and he's damned good at it. Clarkson seems like the type to smoke inside of his M5 while he sips wine, and shifts with his tiptronic.

Very humble guy but a good driver and does a proper review of cars

In fact all three presenters at Drivers Republic are good...

They can get quite technical in their comparisons:

lol dude are you kidding me? DR FTMFW!!!!!

I check that site like daily. Chris Harris ftw too. He's actually probably my favorite automotive reviewer. He's quick witted, articulate and has a passion for cars (and an e92 M3

).

I feel 5th gear is overly optimistic about vehicles and far less entertaining. For example, a test drive of the s2000 years ago brought me nothing from the guy but "ohhh emm gee the v-TEC bla bla bla bla" STFU. That guy annoys the crap out of me.

So his animosity against the "flappy paddle gearbox" is all pretend?

top gear is hella funny and entertaining and i can go on for hours just re watching old episodes, and i love the on screen chemistry between jeremy clarkson, james may and richard hammond, they really do make a great team to watch. ohh cant cant forget the stig!!!

5th gear does proper car reviews and is only good when tiff, vicki or james reviews the cars, i absolutely hate the fat blonde long haired guy.....but the show is still overall boring
