    Default Clarksonisms...

    'I'm sorry, but having a DB9 on the drive and not driving it is a bit like having Keira Knightley in your bed and sleeping on the couch.'

    '... the last time someone was as wrong as you, was when a politician stepped off an aeroplane in 1939 waving a piece of paper in the air saying there will be no war with Germany '

    Illustrating the lack of power of a Boxster: 'It couldn't pull a greased stick out of a pig's bottom'

    On the Vauxhall Vectra VXR: 'there is a word to describe this car: it begins with 's' and ends with 't' and it isn't soot

    'The Suzuki Wagon R should be avoided like unprotected sex with an Ethiopian transvestite'

    'The air conditioning in a Lambos used to be an asthmatic sitting in the dashboard blowing at you through a straw.'

    'Koenigsegg are saying that the CCX is more comfortable. More comfortable than what... BEING STABBED?'

    'This is the Renault Espace, probably the best of the people carriers.
    Not that that's much to shout about. That's like saying 'Ooh good I've got syphilis, the BEST of the sexually transmitted diseases.''

    'I don't understand bus lanes. Why do poor people have to get to places quicker than I do?'

    Clarkson's highway code on cyclists: 'Trespassers in the motorcars domain, they do not pay road tax and therefore have no right to be on the road, some of them even believe they are going fast enough to not be an obstruction. Run them down to prove them wrong.'

    'Britain's nuclear submarines have been deemed unsafe...probably because they don't have wheel-chair access.'

    On Mandela's claim that Cuba is a good advert for democracy: 'Well Mr Mandela why don't you go and ask one of the 12 year old Cuban prostitutes which way her parents voted?'

    'Now we get quite a lot of complaints that we don't feature enough affordable cars on the show......so we'll kick off tonight with the cheapest Ferrari of them all!'

    On the Lotus Elise: 'This car is more fun than the entire French air force crashing into a firework factory.'

    'Sure it's quiet, for a diesel. But that's like being well-behaved...
    for a murderer.'

    'I don't often agree with the RSPCA as I believe it is an animal's duty to be on my plate at supper time.'

    'There are footballers wives that would be happy with this quality of stitching... on their face.'

    'Much more of a hoot to drive than you might imagine. Think of it if you like, as a librarian with a G-string under her tweed pants. I do, and it helps.'

    'You cannot have this car with a diesel. It’s like saying, I won't go to Stringfellows tonight, I'll get my mum to give me a lapdance, she's a woman!'

    'Tonight, the new Viper, which is the American equivalent of a sportscar... in the same way, I guess, that George Bush is the equivalent of a President.'

    On the Porsche Cayenne: 'Honestly, I have seen more attractive gangrenous wounds than this. It has the sex appeal of a camel with gingivitis.'

    'Why dont people just go out for a drive anymore, not to anywhere or for any reason but just to drive, i mean motorcyclists do it all the time? So why dont human beings?'

    they will be back 3rd week of october

    Clarkson on buses: the time has come to stop thinking of buses as an alternative to the car, who gets up in the morning and says " no, i wont take the car. i want to get chaffaured to work by a psycopath, get cancer from the exhaust while sitting next to a sweaty rapist."

    another about cyclists
    "Do not cruise through red lights. Because if I’m coming the other way, I will run you down, for fun and do not pull up at junctions in front of a line of traffic. Because if I’m behind you, I will set off at normal speed and you will be crushed under my wheels."

    Have to say, Clarkson has a great way on expressing his words.

    LOL!!! Classic... Put exactly one gallon of fuel into each car and see which one goes furthest.

    "... so if you're in the market for a supercar and have been hit by the fuel crisis, buy an XXXX XN" CLASSIC!

    Season 11 is over. When they are back in October it will be Season 12.

    As for quotes
