How about a new show. Have a lot of presenters on the list and use them for various stories so its not the same three blokes all the time.

Chris Harris
Steve Sutcliffe
Jason Potato
Jethro Boddington
Tiff Needle
James May
Harry Metcalfe

Proper car reviews
Lap times
Road trips to the best driving roads in the world
Car news
Inside the factory stories
Specialist tuners (i.e. Singer, Alpina Ruf).
My cars - interviews with collectors or owners of one very interesting or iconic car.

Chris Harris - yes could be entertaining
Steve Sutcliffe - good reviews, but i fear he would be similar to Jason Dawe and may not have the pizaz to interact with the other guys.
Jason Potato - Arogant Jerk but in a very unlikeable way IMO seems to act like he's superior to everyone.
Jethro Boddington - No idea who that is
Tiff Needle - Seems like a nice guy, but puts me to sleep when ever he's on.
James May - tried and tested :D
Harry Metcalfe - you are joking right? this guy is about as exciting to watch as a silent movie in the 1920's which incidentally he probably could have starred in. How old is that guy?

I enjoy topgear as do millions globally. Clarkson can be an idiot, but I enjoy his humour. The show has moved from a car testing show to one that is based on entertainment. I think over the last what 10-15 years the current 3 presenters make the show what it is. Think of it like your favourite band. I don't think it would be easy swapping the lead singer of the worlds biggest rock band. It would be the same name, but just wouldn't be the same.

Agreed, I think they should move back a little to serious car stuff, the format ,as entertaining as it is, is stale.

Some bands go on long after they should have given the game away. It's time for new blood. These guys are past it.

Jethro is from EVO - if you look on youtube for the review of the 991 GT3, that's him.
The general public is a terrible barometer of taste. Trust your own sensibilities.

I had fight on twitter with him, all over him saying Italy needs to have two GP's and San Marino was his option. I pointed out that San Marino is its own state separate from Italy……either way we were kinda both correct because the circuit is in part within San Marino and a part of it is in Italy….its all semantics but he wouldn't relent and clearly became the bully/ wanker that he is and then his followers/ minions started on me……the fame has gone to his head
