| It is pure zany English humour,Clarkson and his team have managed to pack such fun into these programmes,that is why they have millions of supporters,lets face it a modern car,is a car,is a car,there is just so much that you can say about it,the copycat programmes have proved how boring the repetition of extolling the virtues of new vehicles is,Clarkson has taken vehicles to new heights of fun in finding ways of taking the mickey out of the manufacturers,he finds the weak spots quickly and pulls them apart.
His methods of destruction of the lemons is also interesting,but the programme has not always been this way,when he first started it was almost stiff upper lip service to the manufacturers,that soon changed as he became bored ! some manufacturers would not let him have their cars for fear of mockery.
Yes age is against them,but let them have their fun while they book their turbo charged zimmer frames,I think there is still life in the team yet,better than 'Neighbours' any day !
