I was gonna say dont believe everything you read but to you that would mean nothing.
Anyway if you believe he was only earning 40k explain to me why they were using James' own Ferrari 430 on the show?

he's obviously not getting £40k a year/show/season now is he
besides, he's got a newspaper column, his own spin off shows and books and all sorts of shit so he's bound to be minted

I like 5th gear, its actually a car program rather than just a big laugh.
I enjoy top gear as entertainment to a certain extent but all the shite made up "races" really have worn thin now.

i don't get upset if i miss 5th gear in the same way that i'd be on the net looking for a rerun of top gear
and i could watch top gear on dave for hours on end but 5th gear is a bit tedious

100% spot on, well said Chip.
Can't understand why everyone has it in for the Stig. He saw an opportunity to make money via his book and the BBC went all arsey about it. It was hardly top secret who the Stig actually was and a quick Google would have revealed who he was long before the book saga ever cropped up. I'm sure most people on here would have done the same thing if they were in his position after all most people move on in their careers for financial gain which is just what he has done.
