I've got some of JCs books, in an old article, he said the best car you could buy in Britain was the Audi S2!!

There's nothing like coveringall the bases....
I remember watching a TG where all he did was slag Quattro AUDI's cos they were so front end heavy and all this did was make 'em understeer and thus make 'em undrivable at speed!!

WHATEVER JC!!!!

It would seem my use of the word 'image' has been misconstrued... I was referring to the accidental imagery conjured up by the comment of looking like 'cocks in his eyes'.

I hate top gear aswell! oh look! here's another supercar you'll never be able to own unless you win the lottery! lets tell you everything you don't need to know about it and talk cack like it sounds like the best music, IN THE WORLD! and its controls are as smooth as the smoothest things IN THE WORLD! its the whatever IN THE WORLD, and all of his other stupid likenings! and then there's test to see if a train or a plane would beat whatever car across wherever! oh and the point proved was NOTHING! its more about those three than anything else! but he is right in what he says about audi drivers! apart from me! I'm an ********!

so if top gear did nothing but test on cars from 5k to 25k would you listen to them and sell your car to buy one?? and if you did win the lottery would you listen to them and get something like a pagani (however its spelt
) or would you think about what YOU wanted?
it annoys me when people go on about not watching it because they cant afford the cars, i know that if they tested the latest honda micra or nissan jazz i would be one of the first to turn off and not watch again.Comment

Sorry, I know you are probably too young BUT when JC was much younger and a budding, hairy, journalist, Performance Car did a Car of the Year in the Dec. 1991. JC was the champion of the S2. He quite liked it. I have the article but for some reason can not upload from this computer.RS2'd 93 UrS4 5 spd sedan

I have read numerous comments from Clarkson of that nature, at one time he called the S2 the best car in the world because of its blend of refinement and performance. I think some of them were articles he wrote for the Daily Mail? I have a few books full of them i think came free with Top Gear magazine. Someday i'll dig them out and scan them....Sorry, I know you are probably too young BUT when JC was much younger and a budding, hairy, journalist, Performance Car did a Car of the Year in the Dec. 1991.

Nicely put by the big man himself - a surprisingly mature attitude he had then... Clearly he forgot all that when he became the king of Sunday night prime time when he gets to act the eejit (usually hanging his tail out in some stupid tyre smoking drift cos he has 500yds of runoff area) in cars that are more expensive than most of his audiences homes.Paul Nugent
