On Channel 4 last night ,did anyone else watch? Beeb should stop paying Clarkson and co megabucks, and employ Guy to present motoring programmes instead . Total nutcase mind..

He is a top bloke great presenter too.

Guy is a breath of fresh air. He doesn't need a script either which is nice. The first programme last weekend was better I think and quite amazing to see what he achieved.

Was it ever! 112mph on a pushbike was quite some achievement and as for last night's episode, did anyone else notice that as well as being the narrowboatist, engineer and all round good egg, he's one of us?
Yed, that very clearlt tweaked 120 estate as seen in the show eher jhe was in his garage at home:



With apologies for the source of that image. Honest, I didn't go there looking, it just came up.

He sold a Saab 96 to buy that and his Astra van, as seen in the first eipsode, was quite tidily done too, for a modern!

like that ovlov

Me 'n' all. I think the 120 is one of the most beautiful estates ever built and that one certainly isn't a minger.

He could also find employment as Hugh Jackmans stunt double in future Xmen movies...

- Yes there is an element of wolverine to him! I wondered what the car was in his garage, pretty smart that is too.

I hope one day he manages that elusive TT win.

im confident he will get the win, just a combination of right bike/right conditions and a sprinkling of luck.

wish i had known about the hydroplaning attempt as bala lake is only a few miles away from where i live!

Ah , but do you know what he does in the van the night before a tt run just before he goes to sleep ?
