It was on a couple of weeks ago ? Although Quentin was a bit scathing - it was a car of it's time - and today is easily the most affordable open top car sports car you can buy. But buy carefully! I do agree the fixed head version doesn't have much going for it - but with a Webasto roof, it actually probably is the most useful option..... I love mine - which is a convertible - it's been very reliable, comfortable, and my head doesn't stick up above the screen, and it has a superb heater - all important in a Scottish 'summer'...... :D

The TR7 a brilliant car and years ahead of its time when launched in 1976.The TR7 made the MGB look so old and performed and handled better :)

Excruciating would be my choice of a single word to describe that waste of transmission time.
The voices in my head may not be real.... But they have some damn good ideas.

Oh!!! its a touch screen? I thought he was swatting flies :D

I'll stick with my 27" iMac thanks, as for the presenters "banter"..... its so painfully false, who on earth felt that the presenters had sufficient chemistry for it to air?

Maybe he should stick to flogging warranties...... still.... it could have been worse... they could have had Stiff Needell involved as well. :o

The sad thing is - the car footage is great - but the presenters and the script are absolutely terrible !
