Default BBC Top Gear Review

http://www.bbc.co.uk/topgear/prog29/crossfire.shtml

Anybody look at this review by Top Gear. A very anti American review against the Crosfire that has enraged me.

Clarkson has some strange opinions.

I think the Crossfire is an amazing piece of equipement with exception to two known issues that I'm having. The radio and wind noise above 50mph, need to get them resolved with my dealer. I've had the car for three weeks.

:!: I told him he's an idiot too. Should keep his mouth shut if he doesn't know what he is talking about.

Anyone on here work at immigration.
From an Englishman to an American,please do the full body works on this ***** when he tries to enter your Country.I'll even supply the rubber gloves if you don't wish to waste your money on him.

Better still call up the boys from DELIVERANCE and let them have their fun.

I've had my Crossfire for 2 weeks, love it. With regard to styling his comments are TOTALLY unique, I've had so many positive comments, every time I park it !

This could be one of the worst reviews of ANY car on Top Gear !!!

We should all use the link to the BBC at the top of this page to E-Mail the idiot.

I was totally amazed :shock: by the uninformed comments that Clarkson made on BBC TV's (UK) Top Gear show last night. It was obvious from his first comments on the shape that he wasn't going to like the car, :x fair enough everyone has their own opinion on body shape etc but his comments on the performance and interior build quality were total crap. We have owned our XFire s.s.b auto for a month now and it turns heads every time we take it out. Its about time the BBC employed someone who was unbiased and does his homework before opening his uninformed mouth !!!. The car is a winner, even at 215bhp. Can't wait for the 2005 model - got my name down for it already - 300+bhp, bring it on !!!!!!!!
See if that "floats Clarkson's boat !"

Just got this reply from the B.B.C Top Gear Team



Thanks for your message. If it catches Jeremy's eye we're sure he'll mention it on the programme, and we'll be posting some of the best ones on the Top Gear website.

We'll be in touch if we can.

The Top Gear team.
