I cant forgive Clarkson for doign such a shit review on the GT2!
Shame really - as I stil prefer the Lambo, but the GT2 deserved a proper review from someone a little more sensible.

it was terrible
that poor micra was treated shambolicly, and just look at the pollution sent into the air from that lorry fire?
besides, we have enough lorry's cluttering up the roads belching deisel fumes out into the atmosphere wihtout adding another few hundred unneccesary motoring miles from 32 litres worth of diesel fumes
bring back jonathon ross, he only wasted money on a phonecall

Lets hope these idiots never watch Laurel and Hardy. I can just see the complaint now: " Ollie's just had a vase smashed over his head by his wife. Its disgraceful and disgusting promoting domestic violence like this..."

They are probably the same lot who banned punch and judy shows.
Some people just need to get a life and have a laugh.

Praise sent
We should be able to get 200 "praises" off this site alone to counteract the complaints !
Maybe someone should contact whatever paper that was and then get them to print the figures for the ammount of praise it received

Nice link Paddy - also done.
Very funny episode and I agree with what the BBC released as a response to their latest shame "it was used to comically exaggerate and make ridiculous an unfair urban myth about the world of lorry driving"
Then fell off his seat - we were properly pissing ourselves. Very funny and meant in a total piss-take joke way and not a personal attack on someone.
Some people need to live in the real world....
Sure something will be said when they film tomorrow.

"This is a hard job, and I'm not just saying this to win favour with lorry drivers. It's a hard job - change gear, change gear, change gear, check your mirrors, murder a prostitute, change gear, change gear, murder. That's a lot of effort in a day."

The silly thing is that 180 people have complained yet how many people actually watched it must be a couple of million? that makes it like 0.0000001% found it offensive. These lunatics should put the same amount of effort into something productive and stop twisting there faces over something so trivial, its not as if he phoned an 87 year old man and started swearing at him down the phone

what we should do is get eveyone on here to complain to the bbc about some normal boring program for insulting our intelegence or something equally as petty! surely we could get more than 200 names for that!

BBC needs to show some balls at the moment.
With the shambles at Radio 2 they have to avoid falling into some neat 'PC' world where they listen to moaning twats more than the majority of licence payers.
FFS anyone who takes Top Gear even remotely seriously needs sectioning and locking away for the good of the general public.

I don't understand why the kind of people who write complaint letters watch programmes like Top Gear 
unless their lives are so desperately sad that they watch it to have the opportunity to complain. They should have a disclaimer on the programme saying that if you are (very very) easily offended don't watch.

I cant comment on the drivers car - I went for the one with the 4x4 and Traction control! ROFOL
Hammond implied that the GT2 did it in about the same time as the Lambo - so not massively slower as implied by Mr Clarkson!

do you think that the gearstick up the bottom was a prank gone wrong?
he was wearing his seatbelt in the shot beforehand so muct have taken it off in order to "showboat"
it was proper funny though although having driven for a few years in big vehicles, i don't think he oculd have had been encountering as many g's as he made out he was, probably du to his dodgy hip

How petty some people are, don't they get a joke? What do you expect when most of the well known murderers of this country turned out to be truck drivers of some sort
