That baffoon Clarkson on JR tonight

[exgtt]

Did you see how uncomfortable he was trying to justifie smashing up the A610? Grrr he makes my blood boil! I have warned the family not to buy me his DVD for crimbo!!!

[number2301]

I want that DVD, I thought I saw him smashing up an Alpine on the trailer though! What's the deal with that?

[MJK 24]

The A610 was a car he once said (something along the lines of) "You'd be a fool to buy a 911 over this"

And now he smashes one up.

Likewise, told the family not to buy me a copy for Christmas.

Alpine A610 was a concourse 50k miler by all accounts.

We watched the DVD while having a few pints last night. The alpine did strike me as a bit of a minter.. I were saying how sick the previous owner must feel.

Yeah it was pretty much concours, one of the best. Kept in a carpeted garage etc. Featured in his book of the 100 best cars.... Why he couldn't have smashed up a old 911 I don't know. T#t!

Because only people who are interested in cars would know the Alpines worth, his target audience just think he's smashing up an old banger.

Hammer. Nail. Head

The very reason Top Gear is quickly going off the boil, and the same reason it's full of Mercs, Aston's, BMW's, Audi's or Jag's doing powerslides every weekend.
