Am I the only one that doesn't like Jeremy Clarkson?

He just like to mock the 911 drivers but has never lacked respect for one. He calls Audi drivers "co**s" and said BMW owners "...would buy sh** if it had the logo on it" but have many times praised those cars too. He bashed the Honda NSX for being a copy and later said it was one of the automotive greats.
I think its what makes him so unique, he doesn't care what everyone else thinks.

He is a TV personality. Without it what does he have to market. If he gushed about every car his program would be insipid, sort of like Tanner Faust's.
I do enjoy the understated Brittish humor. They seem so much more clever than us.
And with this insipid post I have completed my 15
so now I can PM.

I really like his way to present the show, and I also love the fact that bbc put alot of money in show.
This is one of my favorits.

I imagine he's annoying sometimes like the rest of us, but he does add a certain twist to the show...Anyone of them on their own would be a deal breaker, but altogether...they make it a pretty good show...

There was an article on this published in the UK. Basically, it's been at least 6 guys. One was the stunt driver from Casino Royale that flipped the DBS. The one that tested the Renault F1 car was Heikki Kovaleinen. (Sorry if I spelled your name wrong, bud. Even sorrier if you lose your seat to Kimi in 2010.) On a more recent episode, Michael Schumacher revealed himself as The Stig after test driving a Ferrari, but I guarantee you that was a one-off thing. Back to the original poster, yeah you're the only one. The way Clarkson is in the constant battle to beat James and Hamm-ster at everything is what makes the show. The cars are an added bonus.
