clarksons car years (UKTV living sky channel 591)

Another program slating 4x4's :evil:
Jeremy Clarkson going on about how 4x4's are teribble for the enviroment,expensive to run,4x4 owners are fools etc and all the normal stuff about how evil 4x4's are
then turns round in next scence and "and this one's mine"(possible a pajero or a mitsubishi yeah not even british and this is the man who always says we should buy british motor's when ever we can)

Shows clarkson loading the kids in to the back and driving along the road going on about how he needs a 4x4 to get kids to school as theres serious congestion around where they live and if he uses a green lane it knocks 20 minutes of the school run.

Trouble is he's bombing along the road at about 40 straight off the road on to the lane and never bothers to slow(or indicate come to that).Next scene is clarkson tearing up a lane with mud and water flying up all around

Who's dangerous and a fool now   :?:

Would like a GLASS rep to have seen that and make some kind of come back on his bloody wreckless driving and dissregaurd for other countryside users and sensible 4x4 drives reputations

I like clarkson but this has seriously made me think about just what kind of journalist he is.

'Car Years' was a good series, but we all know he likes to be controversial.

Just read his book.  Damned funny even if I disagree with half he says.  Hes is a snob and likes playing devils advocate (Not unlike me some might say)

Having read his article in the Times yesterday about the Argocat/2005 WK Grand Cherokee I can't help but think that much as I like his journalism I don't think he knows much about how to drive off road....
