No more Car Torque

Post by Pine »

E-mail as received :(
Dear Car Torque viewer,

It is my sad duty to tell you that this Sundays episode of Car Torque will be the last. After almost four and a half years on air, South Arica's most popular motoring show will be no more. A total of 211 episodes were produced during this period, and featured over 600 car reviews, events, classics, comparisons and more. On this Sundays show, broadcast at 16:00 on SABC3, we look back at some of the highlights going back to April 2004.

But it's not all bad news. Visit the Car Torque website for more details - http://www.cartorque.co.za

At least now you don't have to think David Bullard's opinions mean something just because he's on TV. I don't know what it was like of late but I remember it wasn't one of my favourites when I was last in SA. Mainly because of the man....

That should read, the only thing Jeremy hates is a Beetle.

Reference: Top Gear Season 10, episode 4.

But at least he can admit when one outperforms him :)
