TOP GEAR - tucpal - 14:th-Mar-2015
So i take it you all know about the top gear scandal
and i am i avid fan of the show from the start but i was shocked today to find MR Clarkson
who i always assumed would have some sort of top of the range JAG or ASTON MARIN
NO NO NO he has a Renault Meagan RS 265 SPORT
i thought was getting old but just shows once a boy racer always a boy racer till the end
and i hope this is not the end

Lol sure he's got more than that car I know he has a ford muscle car. Shame no top gear tomorrow.

I thought he had a Ford GT. No matter what his or the BBC's decision on Top Gear I'm sure we will see Clarkson & Co on the telly soon.
