Destroyed Europa
Just watched 'Monster Garage', last week was good, this week they utterly destroyed a nice looking Lotus Europa and made it into an
ineffectual hovercraft - Shame

If you can keep you head, whilst all others around you are losing theirs, you are not fully aware of the situation

I watched 3 minutes of it.
The bloke who does the voice over got on my tits so I switched off.
yours, Pete
I went into the RSPCA office the other day. It was so small you could hardly swing a cat in there.

It probably seemed like a good idea to the tosspots behind the programme,did it not occur to them that they might just alienate their viewers by
trashing a Lotus.
They probably cycle to work.
As for the voiceover........f'in annoying.
I'll not watch another episode.

That was crap and the death of chapmans chariot is criminal. Bit like that other crapheap challange (was good till the placed so much new stuff) I
had on the tele in the garage and dont think I will tune in again.  
I have been researching a hover Craft project for some time and worked out that a large heavy lump stuck on one end of the platform was not the way to
go as you added to it by sticking a thrust engine on top of the weight you already had down that end.................that unbalanced platform drag and
sink!!!!!!!

A colleague of mine was on Scrapyard Challenge. He told me that when they say that the teams have 15 mins left, they gave them 2.5 hours!
Never seen it myself.
Cheers,
Neil.
