Fifth Gear: Bentley Continental GTC Review
Posted 16th May, 2007 in Bentley | 4 Comments
Here’s the only presenter worth watching on Fifth Gear - Tiff Needell. It’s an entertaining video, showing the driving God putting a Bentley Continental GTC through its paces.
The man can drive!

What exactly makes him ‘the man’ in driving? The only time he goes fast is in a straight line on an empty airfield, which he then overshoots and ends up in the dirt.

If you remember Tiff from Top Gear; even Schumacher said Tiff had great car control. Admittedly, his F1 career wasn’t upto much, but the guy can drive. He’s been involved in competitive driving since the early 70s - not just on an airfield!
He’s a national treasure.

No, I’m not saying he can’t drive or he’s a poor driver, but the story implies that he’s some great driver because of what he does in this video, which is really nothing out of the ordinary.

Not really. It calls him a driving God, and it says the man can drive. He can.
McLaren chose him to drive their F1 when going for the top speed record. He’s also driven in F1 and Le Mans, so he’s not exactly crappy.
Lighten up Julius!
