Was a good review, although just a couple of weeks earlier during the news section Clarkson bagged it.

There were several FPVs sitting in Germany, because ZF had them to test out the 6 speed autos.
There's also apparently a UK owner, who owns a bright green GT that's been spotted lapping the nurburgring.

The bottom line is that the holdens are available for sale in the UK and falcons are not so why would a UK tv show waste its valuable airtime on it.
Do we in Australia care whether the AWD Focus is quicker than a BMW 135 or a Pontiac Grad Pirx is quicker than an Oldsmobile? TGUK is a pommy show not an Australian show or even a world wide show. It is on SBS FFS and it is one of the rare SBS shows that does not have a round ball or people babbling in squiggle. If falcons are ever sold in pommyland then I am sure TGUK will do a review. |
