I don't disagree with much Jeremy Clarkson says, but I refuse to believe the Golf GTi got worse when the MK2 came out. They're fantastic cars, and still handle as well, if not better than a lot of new cars (tyres permitting!).
He talks out of his arse at times....
Has to justify his stupid BBC pay some how (That we all pay towards!!!)
TBH mate I don't be-grudge paying his wages, or hammonds or mays..... We pay MP's and Government and they don't do anything but talk out of their ar*es....
P.S Off-topic - sourced a mk2 big bumper last night, should be coming by courier next week, and it's red 
If it was a choice of paying for May, Hammond and Clarkson or the to55 pots in Whitehall I know where my money would be going.
