(Clarksons article regarding his daughters first car) " I wanted something with 2000 airbags, I wanted a bouncy castle with wipers"

On the Vauxhall Astra VXR No, listen, listen, listen, you won't be at the party if you drive one of these because you'll have torque-steered into a tree on the way. And you'd be killed, and that's important to die in an anecdote...your children will say "daddy died in a fireball in a Vauxhall and a tree!"

[On the Aston Martin DBS]: "I especially like the gear lever, which is like a Power Ranger's leg"

Illustrating the lack of power of a Boxster: "It couldn't pull a greased stick out of a pig's bottom.

We'll try it my way first, and then we'll finish it.

Killing a mamooth

When discussing the suspension adjustability on the Bentley Continental GT. "It really is about as useful as having a snooze button on a smoke alarm".

'Jean Alesi - who I used to hero worship - is now playing with my genitals.'

Owning a TVR in the past was like owning a bear. I mean it was great, until it pulled your head off, which it would.

...The wheel arches are flared, the car is slightly lowered, and at the back there are extra poo shoots

I don't like being overtaken. It's a sign of weakness.

I'll tell you what. We'll try it my way first... and then we'll finish.

The Amphibian Car Challenge "Which would come first, summer or James May?"

"Only the americans would invent a car polish you can eat."

On the McLaren P1: "This car is about as well equipped as a pair of Monk's underpants."

This is the Renault Espace, probably the best of the people carriers. Not that that's much to shout about. That's like saying ‘Ooh good I've got syphilis, the BEST of the sexually transmitted diseases.'

... And across the line!

Best Driving Roads: Yep, ah, It’s unlikely to be here cause everyone does 5mph (N. America), it’s not going to be here cause everyone is on drugs (S. America), that’s just all full of Ox (Africa), Al Gore says that’s gone (Antarctica) so its not going to be down there, That’s just all Spiders (Australia), sign posts are all full of gibberish (Japan), They’re all communist (Kazakhstan/Russia), can’t go there cause the Americans will shoot you (Iraq)
