Default Top Gear

Last friday i was watching 'Top Gear' ( famous BBC car program), it was a replay of a spring show or something. But in that show they announced the new Murcielago Roadster. They called it 'the new pornstar- and pimp car'. WTF are these guys thinking ... They are always saying English cars like Aston Martin and Bentley are the best in the world, its pissing me off.

Every show or magazine has their own agendas. All you can do is to take everything with a grain of salt.

You should never take anything Clarkson says seriously. He contradicts himself all the time. He generally likes Lambos.

I'm guessing the presenter was Jeremy Clarkson (a british institution these days), who is known for his very pro british stance. Even though he has taken delivery of the new Ford GT. Dont take it personally, he became famous on the back of lines like that. In his time he has just about offended every car club in the UK.

what you should watch is the video of Clarkson getting the ride from hell from Balboni!!! Valentino gives him laps on a track and outrageous burnouts and donuts, Clarkson is awed, amazed, dizzy and white knuckled after the ride....and he didn't have a single bad thing to say afterwords...

Is Clarkson the exceptionally tall fellow? Saw him crammed into a Lambo once, was quite funny.

Thats the guy. He's around 6.5. Once saw an episode where he got to drive an original GT40 a life long ambition of his, but he couldn't fit in the car!
