The interior design bit was funny, but it cant come close to last weeks efforts.

Worst episode of the series so far I thought, still top-notch TV though.

Shame there was no live action footage of Hammond giving the ugliest Porker known to man kind the death it deserved.

Remind me not to let Clarkson redesign the interior of any car I buy...

Seeing the Stig drive the Konigsegg with spoiler was good, although it seems to be deja-vu, a previous one had the same problem IIRC.

I personally think Clarkson is a bit of a knob, but an entertaining knob all the same.

Yes,

hes a right wing, tory boy who lives to satisfy his own desires and doesnt give a sh*t about other people.
His stance on the environment, speeding and other things is plain to see, he goes out of his way to irritate campaigners and deride goverment policies on such things. Hes a tit, basically; but he makes good television on the back of this, that said i dont think i could spend 5 minutes in a room with him.

Of course you could, providing it was a really big one and you stayed in opposite corners... ;)

So, the Cayenne Sport is officially the most pointless car in the world then? An off-road vehicle which cant go off road because the wheels are too big to get proper tyres on and you cant put smaller wheels on because they wouldnt fit over the brake disks? Nice. No use as a proper sports car as it would be too big and too heavy to handle as one.

Why dont they market it as a bleeding Chelsea Tractor then? Better off getting a Range Rover Sport if that kind of thing floats your boat

is it Cayenne Turbo S? if so thats faster than a range rover sport, plus when they revealed it, it was on some sand dunes in dubai, showing that it could actually go off-road

Believe it was and according to Top gear, the size of the wheels did not allow you to put off-road tires on the car, and to fit a smaller size of wheel would mean that they wouldnt fit over the giant brakes it has.

Looked like it handled like an oiled fatman on a slip and slide to be honest on the footage.

And sand dunes arent exactly "off road" considering that with wide enough tyres and low pressures any car would likely handle perfectly fine on them.

hell i used to take one of my Golf GTis on Southport beach before they stopped up the gaps, you dont really need off-road tyres on sand.
