Its kind of funny that he says this: "So could it be that Vauxhall had sneaked into the fray, when nobody was looking, with its first decent car since . . . well, since ever really? ".

Yet I have videos of him commending the vx220.

I found it really funny when he tried to drive a signum from the back seat...that episode was hilarious

Ok what about the Zafira, which he commends in another times article.

He whined about it being a people carrier.. but beyond that he said it was the best in the class.

Interesting article PATo! Really didn't expect Jeremy to think the look of the new Astra. I haven't seen the car in real life so maybe it looks better than in photo. One thing for sure, when the Astra concept (Opel GTC) came out, I thought it's one of the best looking compact cars around.

For the signum, Jeremy was saying it's a good car as long as he's sitting in the back. Who knows what'll happen when he gets over the vauxhall phobia, he may actually buy one himself and that'll be the end of the vauxhall hating ;)

Clarkson is insanely biased. That's half of what makes the show so fun to watch. Clarkson, Hammond, and May are all biased and conflict with each other all the time.
