Really enjoyed this!

Where Top Gear meets Monty Python, but maybe not that silly and actually quite interesting for a non car lover. Starring Tiff's chaotic driving, who I remember from top gear and 5th gear and Paul does well as his sidekick, and is clearly also a very good driver, Vicky's speed demon antics are funny and she can drive too, Ben is very good and can obviously drive as he is the old top gear Stig and Tommy was a nice surprise but didn't get to drive any fast cars. I have to say it's funny, with plenty of high intensity that proves cars can be both transportation and entertainment. Loved the part when the band played too. Didn't expect that on a car show. Well done team. We thoroughly enjoyed this.

Not just for car lovers
Kimmiddle24 February 2024
So pleased this is on Amazon Prime! Couldn't believe how many different cars there were and lots of nice roads also. Would like to see some more road trips but guess it's more reviews than that. I did really enjoy seeing the places the presenters visited and loved and I actually learnt a thing or 2 about cars! I just love how Tiff and Paul are so brilliant together. Every episode has lots of fun but it's always about the car. Enjoyed the car charging thing but makes me not ever want to get an electric car!

My husband is the car lover in our house however I did enjoy all the giggles it gave me with the banter between Tiff and Paul!

Full Throttle Nostalgia: 'Lovecars' Shifts Gear into the Heart of Petrolheads
benmaffin27 March 2024
Since the vaunted trio of Clarkson, Hammond, and May exited stage left from "Top Gear," leaving a vacuum that seemed impossible to fill, the red-blooded car enthusiasts among us have been left wandering the desert, parched for genuine automotive entertainment. Amidst the mirages, one show emerges like an oasis: "Lovecars: On the Road." This isn't just another attempt to revive the spirit of motor enthusiasm; it's a full-throttle celebration of what makes our petrol-pumping hearts beat faster.

Seeing Tiff Needell back behind the wheel is akin to watching a master chef return to the kitchen. His effortless charm and laid-back demeanor are a breath of fresh air in a landscape littered with the half-baked antics of wannabes like Paddy McGuinness. Where shows like "Fifth Gear Recharged" meander into the mundanity of soppy SUVs and electric conveyances, Needell reminds us of the visceral thrill of proper motoring-Ferraris that roar with the might of V8s, the ballet of wheel spins, the drama of drag races. It's as if the original spirit of "Top Gear" has been reborn, with cinematography so crisp you'd swear the old crew was behind the lens once more.

Into this mix steps Paul Woodman, an unknown quantity to many, who nonetheless slots in beside Needell like a well-oiled gearbox. While Ben Collins might seem like the third wheel-superfluous, perhaps, in the dynamic-it's a minor quibble in an otherwise stellar setup.

"Lovecars: On the Road" is not just another car show; it's a beacon for those of us craving that blend of adrenaline, wit, and a touch of madness that only the best automotive adventures can provide. Here's hoping the road stretches far ahead for this outstanding series. Keep firing on all cylinders, lads.
