Clarkson's take on TVRs

[TT Tim]

Found this on TimesOnline, made me chuckle so had to post on here, no doubt it's been previously discussed at length:

[i]Beauty and love have no place in Britain. Which is why we are responsible for the most brutal and savage car of all: the TVR. An Alfa Romeo will try to woo you with poetry. A TVR will bend you over the Aga, rip off its kilt and give you one right there and then.

A Volkswagen will make you a lovely shepherd’s pie and light a fire to make your evening warm and cosy. Whereas a TVR will come home and bend you over the Aga again. A TVR would nick the lifeboat charity box on the bar, empty it then shove it up your jacksie. A TVR would fight for its life, its honour, its family and, most of all, its pint.

Put a TVR on Desert Island Discs and it would take a flamethrower and a selection of hits from Wayne County and the Electric Chairs. Then it would bend Sue Lawley over the mixing desk and make animal love until it broke wind.[/i]

Thank you Clarkson, but less of the racing boats and planes across Europe, and more of what you're good at. Humorous, non-too serious car comment.

Too right

Now, where did I put the garage key? I think it's time Trev put on his kilt...!

...for about 5 minutes until it's dodgy hip gave out, or it needed more ventolin, or it needed to stop for a leak for the 5th time that hour.

Were his comments made before or after the nob fell off the Tuscan during his road test

Ooooh! It's bloody awful when your knob falls off.

[parrot of doom]

That depends on where you've been putting it.

Clarkson couldnt even find my knob even though I was pointing at it.

Not a good thing! But as long as your wife can find it!
