“ The Honda’s petrol engine is a much-shaved, built-for-economy, low-friction 1.3 that, at full chat, makes a noise worse than someone else’s crying baby on an airliner. It’s worse than the sound of your parachute failing to open.”

“I look at everyone in their Honda CR-Vs and their BMW X3s and their Audi Q3s and I think, Are you all mad? An ordinary estate or hatchback costs less to buy and less to run and is nicer to drive, more comfortable and just as practical. But it doesn’t take up so much bloody space.”

But there are so many... I think I’m going to have to find my “big book of TopGear” which I got for my 12th, 13th, and 14th birthdays. My whole family was bit by the TG bug after visiting our cousins in Ireland when I was in the 4th grade, and I distinctly remember the first time I read the “big book”, because it was the only time I’ve peed my pants from laughing so hard. It’s probably not as funny now, but it made 4th grade me’s stomach hurt from laughing so hard. Can’t believe how long ago that was, man does time fly.. (18 now)

“A car can be a tool but it can also be so much more. It can be a heart-starter, it can be a drug, it can be a piece of art and it can stir your soul.”

This isn’t verbatim, but once he said something along the lines of “If the Third Reich would have lasted for 10,000 years, the fan belt would have only lasted 1000"
