    Default Netflix apparently snapping up Clarkson and Co for 'House of Cars'

    The story has done the rounds for a few days now.
    I did read on one site that they were trying to come up with alternative names. Obviously Top Gear is a trademark of the BBC so whoever gets the trio for a car show would need a new name.

    The site (Engadet http://www.engadget.com/2015/05/13/n...house-of-cars/) have made a piss poor attempt at coming up with a decent alternative, so I thought the good bantered folk on DF could have a go.

    So Netflix have (apparently) come up with House of Cars which for those in the know is a play on their exclusive series House of Cards.

    Suggestions on a postcard below please

    I would love to call it "I've never cared about Top Gear or cars, and wish they would make a decision already so that people stop going on about it, and especially stop going on about bloody Clarkson."

    I reckon that's a catchy title.

    Thought about this the other day, in case there was a competition to come up with a good name.
