For those interested in such rubbish ;-)
Today's episode of Top Gear included a special challenge for the
fearless threesome...
They were each given 3000 GBP to acquire a car at a classic auction in
order to "compete" in the classic car rally on the island of Mallorca.
James May got stuck with a Citroen, Richard Hammond bought a
Lanchester, and Jeremy Clarkson outdid himself with a 1969 Sprite! The
company provided navigators for them... James got a glamour model with
no experience whatsoever; Hammond got a mechanic who just happened to
be shorter than himself; Jeremy wound up with a rally driver with lots
of experience, but NO English. At the end of the filming, for the very
first time, all three of them purchased their chariot from the BBC, so
Jeremy Clarkson is now a Spridget owner... Is that a good thing???
