No, Jeremy is. No one can top his reviews

@@AverageAlien look up James’ review of the Singer Porsche, and get back to me

@@IronMan3582 look up Jeremy's review of the P1 and get back to me, or just never speak to me ever again, depending on your opinion of it.

@@AverageAlien I have seen that one and it shows how hypocritical he can be about raving about “British engineering being the best in the world” and spends a good portion of the video throwing McLaren under the bus saying that the P1 was born in a laboratory where no one tells a joke…or how overly complicated it is to turn the traction control off and when he asked the technician why is it so and the tech said “why would you want to?” “To have some fun?” Seriously he was the same way with the Audi R8 V8 describing it like being “smearing honey on Keira Knightly” and when it got the V10 engine a year later he said it was “soulless” which makes no damn sense because V10s have the best exhaust note in existence. Same thing with the Lexus LFA, he went from “I don’t understand this car” to a nonstop raving about it like it was the best thing since sliced bread. The man is all over the place, saying he would always prefer a Ferrari to a Porsche, but whenever he is forced to sit down and actually drive a Porsche…he walks away loving…case in point the 2008 911 Turbo or the 2005 Carrera GT

@@IronMan3582 Oh no, how dare he use emotional appeal and metaphors to enhance his journalism? There is a reason Jeremy is the most famous and successful car journalist on the planet. Just because you're a boring robotic human being that wants cold hard facts in their car journalism doesn't mean most people will want this. Jeremy wins. Jeremy's reviews hit the right spots. The P1 review unbeatable. Everyone with a soul knows this.

It wasn’t a documentary about road signs. It is a car show

@@Relax0kay Sherlock?

Because then they would’ve shot him

@@alonzolopez9649 ???

Illusive Prime it’s a reference to the America special, very poorly applied.

"Can you show me the bits where you pee from?" 💯% success rate

Apart from the fact that the cars Holden made by themself, were the basically only decent cars gm has ever made 💀 Sure there's the corvette, but wow GM, you made one good car

Well... Apart from the fact that the engine in this car was developed by Holden (HFV6) and turbocharged by Saab

@@LifeOfTuners you consider Holden high quality? 🤣🤣🤣🤣

@@HardwareG33k shit engine. Wont take a tune. Overworked

@@DaleSteel yeah it's a bit strung out already stock, but tbh in its stock tune I think it's fine. Not a good engine if you want to go far beyond 300 hp though

+soundseeker63 Maybe that was exactly what he intended to do ... it speaks for itself, doesn't it? He didn't do much of a review, but goddamn did he put a message in it!

Why is everyone on KZfaq only 12 years old ?! Aren't there any people capable of understanding deeper messages here?

sorry I thought I was watching a Vauxhall Insignia VXR Review not a roadsign documentary

yeah 321bhp and 0-60 in 5 and a half seconds is boring come on give it a chance

Stryke Most other reviewers gave it a positive verdict so no, I don't think it says much about the car or gives a deeper message. It's just Captain Slow living upto his name. Jeremy would have slated it because Jeremy is incapable of being objective, especially with about a Vauxhall, but I bet Hamster would have gotten it sideways and smoking.

I never read replies so if you had the option of a Ford Focus, Peugeot 308 or an Insignia VXR with 330bhp you’re telling me that u wouldn’t have somthing with double the power?

James Hollingworth you know that there’s other cooler, faster, better looking family cars, personally I’d much rather have a Audi S4 or a BMW 330i

Skengman yeh same but for the money and at the time this was shot it was still a decent car

James Hollingworth it’s a decent time for back then but still, I’d rather save for like 2 months and pay another 5k to get a S4 at the time, let’s be honest, an Audi S4 has way more road presence than the VXR

Skengman I think the Audi has less road-presence. I can’t tell an S4 from a standard A4 until I see the badge on the back. The Audi just looks like any other boring euro-box/rep-mobile. The Vauxhall at least looks a bit more fierce.

I don’t agree with her on that at all. Sure, it is paired back, but at the same time it is the best looking modern Opel/Vauxhall there is. It is not overdone, but a few almost fighter jet style intakes set it apart. Simple and surprisingly elegant, but still dynamic. No committee would be capable of that much nuance.

Thank you. I am a little more enriched by knowing that

Most cars have manual gearboxes in the civilised world

Most cars made prior to 1992 maybe.

Most cars made prior to 2020 actually.

Actually automatics are sort of American-Australian thing, those are really not very popular in Europe-Russia.

Want to get one here in Australia but they only come in auto :(

Agree totally, slept in the back of mine (vauxhall, uk) a few times, brilliant all rounder, quick, handles well... Would still rather a '67 Mustang though, if I'm honest!

In the eu. Its an opel Insignia OPC the same 0-97 (i use km/h).

@@zackpenhaligon9904 I've just got a remapped CDTi Mk1 - best car I've had. Corners like a house fly, 60mpg on motorway, comfortable. Love it.

+Greg Polansky Yup

+Greg Polansky Ot the new CTS I think.

+Greg Polansky ...with a manual transmission and Brembo brakes?

+Edslittleworld I don't know, this always confused me. I remember seeing some review where some guy was driving a buick regal with a manual transmission and RWD, but could never find it again, and can't find the video. I thing it was a 2012 Regal, some kind of special edition... maybe the "R" if anyone else has any info, id appreciate it

+Greg Polansky I might have just confused it with this Vauxhall

+Hampstead343 well GM take Opel Insignia and rebaged as a buick ... they did that Opel Omega... and Cadillac Catera

+TheSteelGamer vauxhall started it all off.

The Car Boar enthusiast nope

The Car Boar enthusiast Opel build the majority of the Vauxhalls, in fact the technology etc was produced by Opel

Vauxhall made in Britain. British brand, too. Vaux did start it off - 118 years ago! 🇬🇧👍😁

YES

Kappa Kappa it was bought out. Never used to be but it is now.

And Buick and Holden

there are actual brits that beleive vauxhall makes their own cars

Vauxhall is Opel is Buick is Holden is Chevrolet is Vauxhall is…

we are 4 years behind with the design Europe always ahead of us here in the USA now we are getting this car

Now you're just talking nonsense. The Buick variant of this car is called the Regal RS.

StanOfGB The Regal GS is a turbocharged 4-banger with 270hp, I believe? However, the Opel Insignia OPC (Vauxhall Insignia VXR) has a turbocharged 2.8 V6, making 325hp and 435Nm. (the torque is limited to 435, because the transmission is officially only capable of 400Nm +10% tolerance)

StanOfGB It's not the same. VXR / OPC are special sports version with totally different suspension, 4wd, v6 turbo engine, etc. It's a very different car to any Regal.

It's german engineered.

+rarutab no not at alllllllll

+rarutab She sounds and acts like a typical upper class English snob.

She seems to me like the type of person who just wants to do something well and move on. She never seems to actually want to talk about her work on the road signs, instead, it's everyone else constantly bringing it up. She doesn't want to be idolised, she just wants to feel comfortable. But then again, I have no idea what she wants, this is just what I figured from this and other videos of her.

+Romulan2469 Margaret is South African.

Joe Wakeford I stand corrected, but she still comes across as snobbish.

Fixed by a simple remap m8

Mind you, I quite like the corsa vxrs. Think I'm going through a second bout of teenager syndrome 🤭

Have you ever seen, been in, or driven an Opel before. 5k more is a bargain!

madman2x you know vauxhall and opel are the same thing, right

Eugene Markov sometimes Holden as well

+Eugene Markov Yes but u do know that Opel do all the designing and manufacturing right?

Opel is sold in Great Britain as Vauxhall. It is nothing more than a marketing ploy

Eugene Markov Correct !

Aside from the commodore, the rest of the range were imports too

Here in Aus I mean

This is a Holden Cruze, right?

Opel Insignia

you can buy it now i guess
