Clarkson twitter on the GTI
« on: 25 January 2010, 00:50 »
Finally got round to checking my twitter, and Clarkson drove the new GTI on the 3rd Jan 2010.

All he has said is 'Great Car!'

 :smiley:

any word on whether this will appear on the next series of top gear kev?  i would imagine they'll skip the GTI and go straight to the R?

Clarkson is a great TV entertainer, but does he really know anything about cars?

I think Top Gear is boring and predictable these days. I need presenters who really know what they're talking about and while Clarkson et al are smart, I don't think they take the time to do their homework properly.

Golf R - almost on order - 5-door, DSG, Rising Blue, leather, 19" alloys, RNS510 with Dynaudio, ACC, Sunroof, Parking camera and sensors, luxury pack and cruise control.
