About this time last week, The Top Gear Team published this trailer on YouTube:
Today, I found this one from Hammond, May & Clarkson:
The first one got absolutely slammed by the commenters. And, much as it pains me to say it - I can see where they are coming from. It looks like Evans & Co. are trying too hard to be like Clarkson & Co. The second clip shows why Clarkson & Co. just don't need to try at all - it's just over a minute of light comedy plugging the new Amazon Prime show. The only cars in it are a set of parked Reliant Robins - older incarnations of the Rialtos modified by Evans & Co for new Top Gear. I think these are their new "Company Cars" - reinforcing the doddery old men image that James May in particular is happy to promote - did you see that white beard he had in James May: The Reassembler?
Trouble is, he is only four years older than me.

The random musings of a middle-aged idiot on the subject of cars and motoring. A bit like Top Gear used to be.
