Saw repeat of Top Gear last night. On cool wall JC wasn't very complimentary regarding Porsche drivers was he? But then I recalled My New RS and some other threads and have some sympathy with his point of view.

if you take anything JC or Top Gear has to say to heart you are legally required to go to Sainsburies (or Waitrose if you own a C4S) buy a large, complete cod, go home, strip naked, and stand in your back garden repeatedly slapping yourself in the face with cod until you either come to your senses, or are arrested.

Read the current Porsche Post. Two Thirds of the Top Gear team operate Porsches. Clarkson is made for TV dribble....More of a comedy programme than something remotely accurate that reviews products and comments accordingly...Would love to come up against nob clarkson in his gay-ardo in my S.....show him just how car it is...like i did to the Orange gay-ardo outside the Reebok the other week!

I have a quick car! and appreciate other quick cars, such as my mates 360...My comments are aimed at Clarkson continued waffle about the worlds best made and engineered supercars...the BBC brief is not about accurately rating cars...tis make the programme a niche watch...to generate comments/threads such as this!

Like all tv today, Its done for affect, what is anoying though is the ill educated watching it then taking every word as gospel (sp?)

Right, I'm off to find my tool box as I think I've got a set of torques in there, if I fit them to my car will it make it quicker?

P.s what was nuts was the time, money and tech that went into that reliant rocket, It was awesome when it took off!

I thought JC had been very complimentary about the TT. Just stated that it wasn't for him.

Don't really understand why people care what Clarkson thinks?

I have a Boxster and love it but if I had £120k or so I'm not sure I'd be looking at a Porsche but so what.. be dull if we all liked the same thing.
