I thought he liked the DB9 better than the Vantage. And the VW Phaeton?

Strange list, rather un-Clarkson.

Not to mention, a dreamgarage without classics?

^Indeed. Clarkson seems enamoured of a lot of older automobiles.

Maybe it was limited to cars in current production?

Well..that would make the list rather pointless. Besides, AFAIK the Phaeton is no longer produced

^Yeah, it isn't, but they only just announced its discontinuation. I dunno, that just seemed to be a fairly plausible explanation. I'm sure there was a time limit of sorts.

My uncle has an A8. It seems like a fairly sedate vehicle.

I am surprised to not see a Ford GT, he owns one after all as well as a Range Rover ...

That’s huge that he put the C6 in there. But a disgrace that he has no Ferrari’s and 6 German cars!! (yes 6 if you look at the list again)

^^^ Remember what he said ?? "I'm bored with Ferrari"...

...and then a few months later he falls in love with the F430. He should stick to what he says because he is becoming less credible as a motoring journalist IMO. He's still an entertaining comedian though
