Ahh! but I'm only happy when I'm grumpy. Don't be fooled, beneath this gruff grumpy exterior, lies a right miserable b4strad

I think you may be taking Jambo a little too literally However it is not like Mr Clarkston doesn't make similar comments about anyone he dislikes. I doubt he's losing sleep over Jambo's opinion of him - infact since he largely only has a career by being controversial he would probably be revelling in it.

Mmm, you do make some interesting points there Poly. And if I'm being honest the irony meter is pretty bl*ody funny.

Thanks Neil owe you one next time at Tayvallich!! You are quite correct in your comments regarding how I see the man who along with his mates are killing the programme with their big headed arrogant overbearing attitude to the everyday person driving everyday cars. It's not a car programme it's personal wankers diary!!

Looks like you answered your own question, they are a UK based company but sales and manufacturing all seem to be US based for now.
