Personally, I find the show to be TO MUCH in favour of British made cars, more than anything else.
Yay, quite right too! There are so few british made cars these days, they are right to champion them.
As far back as his Performance Car column days, I've been a fan of Clarkson, although even then I've disagreed with almost everything he has said, no matter how entertaining.
I'll get on with scanning that Murena piece...
