The Grand Tour: Carnage A Trois
#1
Quite a nice love letter to French cars which sums up quite a lot of what I like about them.

There's also a small amount of Berlingo abuse which is why I thought I'd mention it here.

I just had a look at the trailer on youtube.  I'm assuming the trailer doesn't spotlight the love letter side?   It seems every time I watch some of the TV output of Clarkson and co., they deliberately smash up at least one functioning car.  In fact these days I think that they don't actually like everyday cars, as they seem to enjoy destroying so many.

Get over yourself. Its entertainment for some - and there's a market for it. Much like the latest incarnations of Top Gear, its about blokes dicking about - not the cars.

Don't get me started. That carry on where they destroyed the concourse Marinas for a laugh and then insulted the members of the owners club on the show as entertainment exposes them for the divisive, useless losers they really are. Just my opinion :-)

I'm old enough to remember that buffoon Clarkson road testing a Berlingo van and saying just how good it was - and I'm lucky that mine still is, after twenty years (once the trivial bits had fallen off the reliability increased).

Concourse Marinas?
Doesn't ring a bell.

Dropped a piano on one. Then after complaints set fire to another. Watching the Dolomite sprint having door ripped off on another episode sealed my intense dislike of the top gear brand
