    The Capri looks to one of the more interesting builds.

    Although I really hope they don't claim to be the first people to put a V8 in one

    Other than the stripe and possibly the exhaust I quite liked the capri....

    It is certainly the only one to date I'd consider buying ( but not for anything like what they pretend sell them for)

    The dealer has apparently sold that one, so it appears someone has parted with cash for it.
    I hope for their sake it wasn't a ton of money

    Can't see this series returning, it's been pretty much universally slated online.

    It's got so bad they are actively erasing bad comments for their social media accounts, it's become a full-time job for someone as it's a constant stream.

    I shall not watch it. Bad enough just reading the news these days without giving myself high blood pressure watching the TV too.

    Had a big rant on facebook about this,so not going to preach to the converted here! But the 240Z did not turn into Skylines GRRRRR

    You only need two tools in life - wd-40 and duct tape. If it doesn't move and should, use the wd-40. If it shouldn't move and does, use the duct tape.

    And if you can't fix it with a hammer,you've got an electrical problem!

    so much annoying wrongness,and they blow 5.6k on the worlds most under powered useless 'van' as a parts getter
    and the banded rears are too wide so on on it's maiden voyage its got wide fronts and stock rears
    datsun's exhaust dragging on the tarmac ,they must think the viewing audience are blind and as stupid as the producers (they won't notice that?) yes we will
    the pattern of 'remove the bumpers' and it's totally transformed,,, beatnick canadian mixes up intakes and exhausts,throttle butterfly's are intake valves?
    clearly knows very little and is reading a script as it's holding an exhaust manifold and talking about inlets ?
    anyone else see how close the unwrapped exhaust manifold was to the carbs and inlet manifolds? that's a fire waiting to happen right there
    I hope they just can it as a bad idea and it never gets anymore airtime

    Yeah,but I was just generalizing over model lineage!

    well in a short series they came out with so many inaccurate things and that was just one of many
    I may have mentioned a few previously
    I hope that's the end of Gob off Garage
    or Garbage garage as it was so 'american' with things like Pop! we may as well use the yank term for rubbish
    to be fair the older british beardy chap is a lot better than this from what I have seen before,
    the canadian and his farmed out FRP panels and stick insect 'jesus christ eat something woman' were just bodies
    countless others could have filled the parts /read the scripts and got all overly hyped up about bumpers being removed
