After all he was awarded first place as one of the worst dressed men in England not too long ago. So a very ugly man, who doesn't know how to dress himself worth a damn is supposed to be the final judge on style? Style of anything?? If you really liked and appreciated the XF you wouldn't have even brought the comment up. If you put up the basic silhouette of the XF I think you will find it not that different from a lot of cars that are considered to be great designs and are very desirable. Enjoy your new car.
I only brought up the dog comment after the insults started. But I love Clarkson. I think he's funny as hell. He's no particular authority on anything. But he is funny. Geez, I owned a Crossfire but I still got a good laugh out of the dog crapping analogy. These geezers need to lighten up and drop the defensiveness. Or they can stay inside their bubble and keep pretending the Crossfire is the pinnacle of automotive design.

I'm gonna bet they go with the latter.
