I'm sorry, but a car costing £235,000 is just obscene

 

Can anyone tell me what the Ascari can do which my car doesn't?

My car can do 70 mph (and more) which is the legal speed limit so what is the point?

 

True, I could get into Stratford in 4 mins instead of 10 but............

 

and it is British, but.........

 

In some parts of the country you could buy a handful of houses for that

You can buy a house for that

£235'000 thats just plain crazy. its the comercailist go faster go faster sociaty we live in. mad absolutely mad. I have a pair of legs and they have never failed me yet.

[Lesley]

I've stopped watching it already and so has Carl - he's reading and I'm in here. I can however hear the words baby Aston Martin - they should rename the programme 'Boys and Their Toys'

[Fleata]

true, very true Lesley

[Lesley]

I'm going to be shot down in flames when the men from the forum have stopped watching this aren't I?

[Cate in NZ]

I reckon you're safe Lesley, they seem to be more impressed by bikes and trains

[Richard and Jo]

We must get one of those cars! I'm off to talk to Jo. Not sure where the money is coming from.

[Guest]

How many eglus could you buy with that sort of money

[Lesley]

610! including 1220 chickens!

or

671 - and no chickens!

Hi,

 

I agree, it's a total waste of money! I think it's a statement for someone rich to show how rich they are . After all a car is just a way to get from A to B. I'll stick to my vauxhall astra.

 

Love from Rebecca and the girls. x

That's what LSH and I think too. There are better things to spend your money on than a flashy car. My little tatty Ka will do me until the wheels fall off !

[Lesley]

Well, I have a Rover25 and according to the Great Clarkson - the wheels might as well fall off it!

 

I love my car but will be changing it next March - I'm still looking for British cars - now I have a list of three.....

 

Morgan

TVR

and......the Ascari !!!!

 

hmmmmm....

[clare*]

Well my little SMART car does me just fine

 

Cheap tax,cheap insurance and the tank only takes £20 of petrol which lasts me a month

[buffie]

I like Richard on TG, so I have pretended to 'let' Mikey watch under a little sufference!!!

 

I don't understand the car thing at all!!!

[Mrs Frugal]

Mmm, that Richard's rather nice! I let my two watch Braniac for the same reason Jayne !

[Guest]

You just gotta do it, haven't you!! Bit on the small side though!

 

Bx

[Jangle]

True, but nice things come in small packages .

 

On the down side he does smoke though .

[Mrs Frugal]

My LSH is pint sized and lovely with it! I have a bit of a thing for neat little men !

[Lesley]

Hands off mine then

[Mrs Frugal]

Bit too tall for me Lesley ! I don't like getting a crick in my neck ! Michael Owen is just about right !

[Lesley]

Carl too tall? He will be pleased! he's only 5'7"

[Mrs Frugal]

Oh yes, way too tall ! I'm not very tall myself, you see!!

[Leanne]

we all know men are just very big little boys and ive long since realised Top Gear is just playtime!! spending that amount of money on a car is obscene, think of all the people not getting medical drugs through lack of funding, or all the people made homeless by all these 'natural ' disasters? it would be bought by rich people who like showing off their wealthy status, thats all.

 

i do agree that Richard 'hamster' Hammond is cute,although a little diddy! my OH is a foot taller than me, and that suits me fine!!

[Guest]

we all know men are just very big little boys

True enough though!
