Mercedes Benz Meclaren SLR


Yes, the car is amazingly beautiful, has appropriate engine to match, sounds awesome, goes like a rocket and is super reliable. However. The amount of exposure this car has received on top gear is ridiculous. Sure the show is mainly super cars that we can only dream about. 20% of the show is stuff you might buy 30%, what you would buy if you had some spare cash. And the other 50% is normally what you dream about.

Today, they decided to road test the SLR. They had a race, from London to Oslow. Jeremy drove the car and the other two monkeys had to use mass transport, ie a boat. In total the SLR took up 50 minutes of the 60 minute show. After spending 2 days in that car Jeremy felt tired. I also felt tired from watching him drive the thing on the highway for 50 minutes.

"Dear Jeremy,

Please show more than one car on the show. It goes for an hour, so it shouldn't be too hard to fit it in. I hope I don't have to remind you of the days when the show was only 30 Min's.

Thanks."
