  1. sam curnow Heh. The national symbol would be a orang-utan (rather than a lion). And instead of some Latin phrase like 'urbi et orbi', it would say 'POWERRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR', like you said.

  2. latengocomoburro Originally, yes. But it has an American and a European department. Guess which one the Focus is from?

  3. hardwirecars It's the BBC. They've got more money than Scrooge McDuck.

  4. latengocomoburro Did you even read my comment? It's a European car. It's designed in Europe by the European part of a company that happens to have started in America. That doesn't make it American, however.

  5. Joshua Wear Of course. But you might want to consider that the Jag is five years older and costs a fraction of the 918's price, making your argument completely invalid.

  6. Hoodwinker 79 The OP stated: 'In everyday life, racing on UK roads, that Focus would whoop the Mustang' UK roads are always wet.

  7. rouzbeh ba Only in American spelling. In the rest of the English-speaking world, 'moustaches' is used.

  8. Yup, we are a country of bikes and terrible public transport.

  9. 390merc65 Then why did you mention it?
    11
  10. It was already going to be scrapped, so it at least got an heroic death.

  11. Don't forget the DAF's, which had the same top speed backwards as forwards. Which lead to backward races being held.

  12. Fighter planes!

  13. M2orNot Nope, Jenson has had the most Grands Prix. Kimi is older, but didn't compete in F1 for two years.

  14. Large Toyotas (Hilux, Land Cruiser) are indestructible.

  15. In a world where a Giulia QV exists (that would be this world a few weeks from now), why would anyone buy an M4? Or an M3?

  16. Arlind530d. Com It doesn't sell well, because the world is filled with overly image-conscious badge snobs. People like you, who buy BMWs for the badge. The people who buy Alfas, the true car entheusiasts, are simply outnumbered. As a result, the demand for Alfas, and thus the price, is low.

  17. +Dr Delaney You buy a German premium car over the foreign competition because you're a thoroughly boring person. And if you buy an Audi, you're a vain person who is too blinded by the rings to see that the technically identical, cheaper and more spacious Skoda Superb kicks its arse.
    10
  18. The Superb is cheaper, more spacious and better looking than the Passat. I love that car, its leg space can't even be put in the same ballpark as the already spacious Mondeo's.

  19. +TMhyp3r According to what I've heard, a man once ate an entire VW Golf to impress a woman. She wasn't impressed.

  20. Sebastian Wittmann The Americans and the British are both proud of their own country. The diffrence is that the British can take mockery very well, and even mock themselves. They don't quite mind losing. The Americans, on the other hand, are sore losers and take themselves too seriously.

  21. The Prius is one of the most boring and ugly cars in the world, fair enough. But the worst? No. The Prius is still reliable, affordable, safe, well-built, well-equipped and somewhat practical. That means it is not the worst car in the world.

  22. ***** Well, it can be totaled, since 'total loss' means that reparing the car would cost more than the currenent value. But dying is one thing a Volvo can't do.

  23. Of course not, he was on a public road. You know, one with other cars on it, that you might hit.

  24. race to grade 8 You don't have to. I already made one.

  25. Renault is good. Fiat's decent. . . . . . . . Though British Leyland is rubbish, I'll give you that.

  26. Samath Lokuge Everything > BMW X1 and Audi Q3

  27. I'm assuming he was succeeded by Louis 'I speek ferry koot Inglish' van Gaal?

  28. Because I have eyes. And not enough money.

  29. johny johnson The X6 is on every rational and aesthetical level a vomit-provoking pool of misery compared to any of its competitors. I'd rather drive a grey standard Golf with no optional extras. That said, unlike newmabreu96, I'd accept an X6 for free, but only to sell it to a person who is both blind and retarded, for a lot of money.
    9
  30. Yeah. It does roll over a bit, but it's surprisingly agile. I'd take the Merc, if only for the fact it has four doors, rather than two like the Rolls.

  31. Luckily, Brits use more elegant insults than that.
    8
  32. Li Ming You missed it by ten years. Seriously, looking at this car is quite enough to not like it. Especially when it's more expensive and less spacious than the X6. And I've read plenty of reports on the car to know about other stuff (e.g. the ride) as well...
    8
  33. Tomas Reiten No, I'm 15, as I just said (and I'm not minus five either). However, I have read plenty of reports on the car, made by people who know what they're saying.
    8
  34. Markustim0 Supposedly. But like I said, feeling good in an X6 is an indication of very, very bad taste.

  35. 390merc65 The Hilux didn't exist during WW2.

  36. +crawler oz He loved the Carrera GT. He said in Top Gear: The Perfect Road Trip that he loves way the Cayman drives. It's just the 911 (and the godawful Panamera) that he hates.

  37. I was about to rampage against you, but then I saw what you said at the bottom of your comment.

  38. It uses a lot of petrol, which is made out of oil, most of which is sat in Middle Eastern soil, which is also the area where the war takes place.
    8
  39. AWD vs RWD in the rain isn't really fair though.

  40. rideordie  Richard: Anyway... back to the studio. Jeremy: That's my line! Richard and James have stolen his line so often, it's their line now...

  41. +FlyHigh Jake The great thing about Top Gear was that even non-car guys like you would enjoy it, to the point where they look it up on Youtube. It's sad that that is no more... until they start their Amazon show, of course.

  42. praveen titus Fair enough, but it'd be nice if they made one with said windscreen/roof.

  43. It's like tofu. It resembles something I very much love (in this analogy, meat), but it lacks the one thing that makes me like it so much in the first place (again, meat), causing me to despise it no matter how decent the flavour.
    8
  44. Personally, I think the soul lies with Pagani and Koenigsegg anyway.
    8
  45. Minecraft is just about the last thing I'd associate this with...
    8
  46. Hardly a supercar. It's a plumber's inventory with some glue and a rocket engine.
    8
  47. Nick H The Prius is a hybrid, and thus can't be compared to normal cars.
    7
  48. Hammond didn't crash, that's true. But jokes aside, it genuinely wasn't much worse than Taki Inoue.

  49. I can feel the downforce from my 'a ballast' XD

  50. +joshstylegaming Was that a Regular Car Reviews reference?
