Jeremy Clarkson buys 458 Spider

[Andyk]

I think Harris is the surprising one....he loved that RS...or did he? strange purchase to trade to a 599.

Clarkson, 458.... i would if I was him.....probably the best 2 seater sports car around today......why not?

Cheers Wattie

Agree, Wattie......Harris said the GT3 was he dream car....But he tends to buy then when they come out, keep them for a short time and sell for a profit before they start to lshed money......I see him in all sorts of cars as he lives down the road from me.

I would take Chris Harris' word on what does and doesn't constitute a good drive over Clarkson's every day of the week.

Recall he gave two totally different reviews on the 8C. One saying it was brilliant. The other, that it was "horrid".

At least be consistent!

Love the 458.

Clarkson does change his mind as often as he changes his undies....

wouldn't know ...................& not interested in knowing

 

[Andyk]

You're right..Thats not a nice thought

 

[dem maser]

Clarkson is like an underground soul singer whos sold out and gone commercial.....

Living off a name, not a great reviewer, he acts like a politician more than a journalist

I didnt think he's actually bought it, was just on loan. Cant see any links on this, but the car he was pictured in had V8 FNE as the plate - Ferrari press car.

 

[dem maser]

Wonder who has V8 MAS??

Wonder who has V8 MAS??

Anyone on here?

Harry Metcalfe has (or perhaps had if he has sold his GTS now) M4SER. MA53RAT could be good. I just bought MA53 GTS (255 quid from the DVLA!).

Oops - topic drift.

 

[dem maser]

Good price well done!!

 

[Woody]

MA53RAT is on a very late (2007 I think) GS, possibly a Spyder.

Love that plate.

M4SER takes some beating.... I thought about MAS5A when it was at auction a while back, but then thought it would be better on a Ferrari.

I was disappointed but not remotely surprised to not find it lurking unspotted in the DVLA's bargain-bucket of license plates! Worth a few quid, I should think.

Is that the lambo, Aston and Lambo one Frank.....If, so one of my fav episodes....

 

[Parisien]

Yes indeed............have to say 3/4/5 of their road trips have been pretty epic stuff...I know its all cut and interlaced to make it look more exciting etc.....but half of it is the guys interacting.....

It's great entertainment Frank.....The sight of May naked in an Aston trying to keep cool.....terrible sight but it did make me giggle.
