Well that won’t hurt the resale value.

Lotus Emira review — supercar looks for the price of a saloon — The Times and The Sunday Times

When it comes to architecture, some people get all gooey-eyed over the enormous majesty of medieval cathedrals, some fawn over the latest glass and steel skyscrapers and some over the four-by-three simplicity of classic Georgian style. One man came to my daughter’s wedding last year mainly...

Not very detailed, but at least nothing negative to say, he understands the car

Not sure you can find an ordinary saloon for 80,000, most people would argue it’s twice the price of an ordinary saloon. Maybe in Jeremy’s Chipping Norton world average is an M5

I suppose we're meant to imagine the average saloon as sampled from the cars owned by attendees at the parties Clarkson frequents.

Yes

OK not maybe an ordinary saloon but not far away for an M3/M4

Our very own drive reviews shown here smoke that. Is he tired or something?

He's very old, very rich, and very entitled. "Tired" doesn't begin to cover it.

He is 62 , not very old. Just doesn’t look well kept.

No way he's that young. That dude has to be closer to 70, surely.

Maybe the guy faked his own birthdate due to vanity?

I actually like his attitude. But I’m punk rock, so attracted to bad attitudes

Jeremy Clarkson has always steered me right when shopping for a car. He is a man who understands and is comfortable sharing his emotional connection with cars. The stuff he was doing on Top Gear, modern Youtubers can only dream of. It's difficult to imagine that Top Gear and Motor Week existed in the same timeline.

How awful can a person be if he dd s a GTI.

I can't believe he's younger than me. It IS nice to know that at least one person looks rougher than I do!

Yeah, but what can we do about it?
