Default A ''pokey little motoring shows'' back in the day review.

A divisive character, with a arguable positive bias, but............................................... .

Talking XK8 Video

That is a fun watch ! Looking at Jeremy Clarkson is a shocker though. He looks like a teenager. It reminds one of how long ago 1996 was and how good the XKs still look (unlike Clarkson and us mere mortals).

Having travelled nearly the same geological era as Clarkson, I'm pretty sure we can all agree that the ageless Bacchus is a physically significant improvement on Clarkson (and almost all the rest of us) at any age (see below).

I do think Clarkson has one up on Bacchus. Bacchus is 'well over the limit' at all times of the day or night.


Please, god, don't let the Sun/Mail/etc publish a picture of 'Jezza' in this state.
