    Default Jeremy Clarkson

    I love top gear, it is top bloke's entertainment, however, I am seriously ****ed off with Mr. Clarkson, please allow me to explain

    For the last 10 years I have owned a range of cars including a Rover 420 GSI, VW Passat 1.8T Sport (a manual and an auto) and finally a Ford Mondeo V6 Zetec S.

    That is until three weeks ago when I purchased a Vectra C, a 56 plater Elite V6 CDTI Auto with 34K on the clock.

    I spent sometime researching the Vectra C prior to purchasing one and what I learned confounded me, if you take Clarkson's views out of the equation the vectra gets an extremely good write up

    In fact it is everything I want from a car and have been trying to find for the last ten years, that is a Hushed, refined, quiet, fast car with excellent build quality.

    Everything I ever wanted from a car.

    And now to Mr. Clarkson, I am ****ed of because I have allowed myself to be fooled into thinking that because the car suffers from understeer when taking a corner at 70MPH, it is no good.

    How wrong have I been as having owned my Veccie for the last three weeks it is without exception the best car I have ever owned, hushed, refined, quality, quiet and fast motorway cruiser.

    Up yours Clarkson, join the real world.

    There are other things in the background so they say.

    He talks VW up sorry over expensive every cars, and the Ford Focus gets a godd right up - look at the back of it? Things dont make sense there

    I suppose if you have driven every car on the planet and have £50 million in the bank I dont think the vectra would be on your shopping list. (unless you want to do lost of shopping).
    For me and my debt its perfect, I can go around in complete comfort and blast passed people if they are in my way....love it!!

    Take no notice of Clarkson's reviews on normal cars. Unless it's a Ferrari or Bugatti, it's carp
    I like the guy, and Top gear rules but his opinion of saloon cars doesn't mean jack ship.
