i had a hard time choosing, but i went with Tiff. Clarkson is funny, but Tiffs a good driver. Tiff gets the vote for driving the shit out of all kind of cars. too bad they both arent on the same show, with Vicki too

Man, why wasn't there a 'both' vote?

Admittedly, had you asked me this question about 6 months ago before I started seeing Top Gear and 5th Gear with any sort of volume, I probably would have said Tiff, outright. Nothing like a guy that you know is capable enough to thrash around just about any car successfully to inspire confidence in the opinions offered by the same person! He does the edgy thrill commentary to the hilt.

Jeremy took a while to grow on me, but I now think he's cool for his own reasons, just like everyone else. What Jeremy lacks in driver ability, he makes up for with humor and that rather scathingly sharp sarcastic tongue that knows no bounds of restraint (beyond what the BBC is willing to allow on TV, of course )

Now throw Vicki into the mix, and it's apples, oranges and buns.

Mmmm. Buns....

I find them both entertaining but i voted for Tiff. You just can't beat Tiff's comments as he's pushing a car to it's limits.

Jeremy... he sucks behind the wheels if compared to Tiff, however he is funnier, and has some creative stuff (Celebrity in a Reasonable Price Car, The Power Lap Time Board, Fastest Politician, Fastest White Van Man, Grannies Doing Doughnuts...).

Tiff is better driver, plus he has Vicki.

Overall: Clarkson.

Tiff driving with JC do the talking, that would be interesting
but I don't like the clip where JC trashed a Porsche 911.
