I'm pretty sure this is standard yeah

Re: Wasn't one of you was it?

Bearing in mind Jeremy Clarkson's usual hyperbole, I suspect this report has only a passing resemblance to the truth. If it is true, it just shows that good cars can still be bought by stupid people. 😊 Yeah you're right, but just going off the stupidity of some drivers nowadays, I sadly think it is...
