poor twingo on 5th gear came last!!

[Gez08]

as above any1 see it?

 

[DrR]

yeah was a crap test, as it would have pawned the handling course.

 

[Beef-Mc]

Going sideways by any chance?

 

[Šįk]

Disapponted with 5th gear!

s**t and a very unfair test!

Should all of done the tests and rewarded points with an overall total, highest points wins!

Twingo should of been 1st or 2nd IMO!!

Not happy!

 

[Alastair.]

5th gear is shite anyways, not worth the watch.

 

[gary200]

didnt see it but girl u see has a red 133 with cup pack etc. wat was it against?

 

[Šįk]

500 abarth (1st), swift sport (2nd), Colt (3rd), 133 (last)

 

[gary200]

shame its a crackin little car aswell

 

[Brown.]

what an awful test. just played into their prize giveaway.

Was the prize one of the cars,and shock horror it was the cheapest of them all?

 

[BREMBO]

Gutted about that, love the Abarth though

 

[Naith]

enjoy 5th gear every week as a car enthusiast but this week was the weakest in the series, especially the twingo section...

even the presenters said afterwards tiff was out in it for hours after

 

[.GAZ.]

Love the Abarth! Twingo shoulda walked it tho!

 

[Lee-182]

5th gear is s**te anyways, not worth the watch.

Agree how can anybody watch them gimps, That programme just makes me angry for some reason.

 

[Aluco]

Anybody got a link where I can watch it ?

 

[minismithy90]

How can the swift sport beat the twingo in that drag race? look at the specs the twingo is faster,the shows just getting crapper with these unrealistic test.EVO or Autocar would have took them an B-roads and done a proper Hot Hatch test.

Hi i have been on this forum for a while and never posted before but would like to say that i was 1 of the drivers used for filming. We had repeated this drag test about 5 times and every time the twingo came last. this was with every driver taking it in turn to drive all the cars with both traction control on and off. Even when filming they were very dissapointed the twingo was out as tiff would have liked it to go through, but they were showing the true result for once.

^ lies

 

[henryp]

^ lies

lol? how do you know he's lying

 

[Aluco]

I think the unfair part is that it didn't get to do any of the handling tests which is where it would have shone above the others.

 

[Beef-Mc]

Tony's cup versus the new cup, that's all I'm saying about 5th gears reliability.

 

[joe_W]

why would i lie?? i do live there and see a hell of a lot of behind the scenes, and often get asked to help with filming.

 

[minismithy90]

That swift sport is a very impressive car.

 

[gaz44]

It wasn't exactly a serious test. The Twingo was slow so it got dropped. End of.

Liked the Swift.

lol Steven Spielberg you are!

 

[Turkish]

Media? Really?....

 

[Monaco Sean]

Anyone else think the test are designed around whatever car they have to give away!?

Not really true.

Tiff loved the twingo and was gutted when it failed.If you watch the test back you will hear that tif tried in vain to beat the other cars handling times and it could'nt.
