Clarkson: Racist
Discussion
The cars had already been modded when left. Looks like the Pork has been turned into a pickup, the Mustang had been Mad Maxed up with an external cage (looks pretty cool actually) and the Lotus was towing what looks like half a caravan.
You can almost hear the story line, Hammond points out Jez's plate is somewhat risible - hilarity ensues.
The Argies had told TG that they wouldn't get into that town days ago, TG replied that they'd end it early outside the town. This'll air and it'll end with them diving for the border in the same style as when those rednecks got miffed.
This'll blow over, TG is a massive cash cow and if the bbc axes it, someone else will snap the format up.

Wouldn't surprise me none if TG ends on being on Sky soon.
It's a crime to stone a Lotus Esprit. Any Brits want to rescue it, Telegraph reports the left the cars at the side of the road and headed home.
I imagine they'd all be torched by now. Despite reportedly being outside a police checkpoint.It's a crime to stone a Lotus Esprit. Any Brits want to rescue it, Telegraph reports the left the cars at the side of the road and headed home.

Yes they must have deliberately given the 928 that numberplate 23 years ago. Crafty DVLA.TG researcher trawls through database of number plates looking for something jokey that happens to be attached to an interesting car. Finds the 928. Job jobbed, except the Argies are more touchy and volatile than TG expected, which should not really have been unexpected.

Assuming that incorrect and they could enter some plates and find a interesting match , how do you then locate the car and buy it ? Would take some rather detailed info from the DVLA , no ?
Anyway, seems the Argentinians are a touchy lot. Shame the reaction is one of violence. They were a bit less reactionary to a less than subtle dig at the UK with an athlete run all over a British war memorial in the Falklands as a pre Olympics stunt for TV.

Just like that!TG researcher trawls through database of number plates looking for something jokey that happens to be attached to an interesting car. Finds the 928. Job jobbed, except the Argies are more touchy and volatile than TG expected, which should not really have been unexpected.
I shall just agree to disagree, I can't see it myself. Seems like extreme lengths to go to for what a set of phony £20 plates could do.

Think you might actually find that they are the 3 most influential motoring journalist on the planet
What you are basically saying is that more people decide what car to buy based on Top Gear compared to any other source of information, from What Car?, Auto Express and Parkers, forums such as this to personal recommendations from friends and family.... Sure if you are nine years old or the Sultan of Brunei they probably hold some degree of influence but back in the real world...Edited by anonymous-user on Friday 3rd October 19:30
