    I don't really like Tiff either because he is such a McLaren F1 fanboy, I mean I love that car and all but in his mind EVERYTHING has to be compared to it and none can match up, I really can't like him for the way he bashed the Koenigsegg.

    Brundle did exactly the same. Why guessing that they are fanboys if none of us as ever driven one of the 2 cars? Why can't they be right. More is not always better...

    I also wonder why Tiff moved from Top Gear to Fifth Gear
    I do like his reviews and his driving style

    I don't really care that he and Brundle are McLaren F1 fanboys, tastes differ.
    I think Koenigsegg is Swedish for: "Oh no, my head's just exploded!"

    Maybe money issues... It's his work, after all.

    He's reviews may not be has fun as those of Top Gear, but they are more objective, a little more accurate and they have very nice driving moments, wich doesn't happen as much on TG.

    Exactly. And it's not a case of being fanboy if you think for a while: never until today a car has been made so free of cost restrictions as the McLaren F1. And it was developed not just by some rich engineer, but from one of the most experienced F1 engineers and with an engine made by one of the better makes in the world.
    Fan boy is to say another car is better just because we like the way it looks. We never tried any of those so, if the majority of the experienced drivers who write of film reviews say the McLaren is still the best, why not believe them? And as Rijoh said, it's a matter of taste, so why bother?

    Can't see where that one is coming from, but I'm glad to help.
    I you pronouce it "guy-ardo" you'll sound close enough. The double "L" is read the same way as "lh" in portuguese and as sometimes the "gl" in Italian. It represents a kind of sound you just don't you use in english. But if you ever heard someone saying "Mille Miglia", the sound in "Miglia" is the same as the sound of the double "L" in Gallardo.

    Have I made things clear or confused you even more?

    btw... some of you say he (tiff) looks retarded... i find his rathher cheeky humour amusing...

    one thing is for sure no one in TOP Gear will drive a car that way these days... top gear is too much show and not enough go IMO...
