So lads, do I pick up the pen and continue from where I was? Do I repost what I had in the meantime? WHAT DO I DO?

Also, I now have a trip because I'm an insufferable faggot, but my phone won't let me post with a trip, so that confusion will be magical.

Yes.

>>29226278
Put the story on a pastebin and continue from where you left off. Or just make a big repost here, but mark the point where the new stuff begins because I don't remember.
>>
>>29226348
I'm a lazy cunt that can't be arsed to sort a pastebin, and sticking something in here for people to read while I write more works anyway, so repost it is.

The producers had set us a challenge.

We were each to choose our favourite Grand Tourer, which we thought would be best to drive across a country that no one has ever driven across before. The nation...

Of Equestria.

The producers had told us to meet up outside a small bakery in the town of "Ponyville". I was the first to arrive.

>You are Jeremy Clarkson, and right now you are stood in front of a very strange looking building, car behind you, with a camera pointing at your face
"And as you can see, I've been very clever. This is the 2010 Mercedes SLS AMG. It has a 6.2L V8 that produces 563 horsepower, mated to a 7-speed double clutch gearbox, and all this means that it will accelerate faster than Lord Sugar's net worth during an episode of The Apprentice. In fact-"
>You are interrupted by the arrival of one of your co-hosts
"Oh here he is, Mr Predictable with his '911 Godmachine'. Who'd have guessed?"
>You watch as Richard exits his choice, the new GT3 variant of the 991 generation Porsche flagship, smug grin plastered across his face.
>"You've picked the wrong car mate"
"No I haven't, you've chosen a stripped down Beetle. I've chosen the perfect marriage of German luxury and performance. When we're done here, I'll still have a spine."
>Richard opens his mouth, but doesn't manage to get a word in before a barrage of expletives explode from the open windows of the bakery.
>He looks at you, puzzled.
>"Was that... Gordon Ramsay?"
"I think I might've been..."
>"Should we go and have a look?"
"But what if James arrives while we're gone."
>"He won't he's probably still stuck at customs."
"Did you have to go through customs, Hammond?"
>"No, did you?"
"No, so how is James stuck in customs?"
>"It's James, he's probably gone to the wrong country"
"Ah yes, well, after you."
>>
>>29226473
>You follow your diminutive companion into the bakery
>Instantly, your nostrils are assaulted by the scent of semi-cooked cake batter
>Looking around, you see a wide variety of baked goods placed on various counters and tables
>This place really did hit your senses hard
>Particularly the decor, it seemed very "Hansel and Gretel"
>Trying to take in the surroundings without suffering from a brain haemorrhage, you walk into the back of Richard who has stopped dead in his tracks
>You soon see why
>There's a pink horse serving Gordon Ramsay a cake
>"Jeremy, that's a talking horse."
"No it isn't, it's just serving cake."
>"No Jeremy, it's a talking horse."
"Hammond, horses can't talk, that's ridicul-"
>The horse has noticed you and is now bouncing towards you, spouting something about a welcome party
"Oh my god. That's a bloody talking horse."
>"I told you it was"
>Hammond wears a cocky smirk across his face, but this soon dissipates, becoming a look of worry
>"Do you think James spiked our drinks."
"I haven't had a drink."
>"... Neither have I..."
"I think we should leave"
>"Yep, agree with you there."
>The two of you turn tail and head back out to the camera crew
>The pink horse seems to follow you, still spraying verbal faeces from her face-hole
>Outside you see that James has finally arrived, and is now talking to the camera crew
>And by the looks of things, he'd brought a Weismann
>Did that man even have eyes?
>>
>>29226484
>Following an explanation from the producers as to why the town was populated by talking technicolour horses that served cake, and then spending twenty minutes rocking back and forth in the back of the Discovery trying to make sense of what was going on in your head, you and Hammond had regrouped with James next to the cars.
>You still aren't sure how James was completely unaffected by what was going on
"How come you understand all this?"
>"Well Jeremy, that's because I actually did my research."
>He responds proudly, before going off on one about the things that he'd learned
>You look straight past him, showing your uninterested face to the camera
>Hammond pipes up
>"James, have you actually been blessed with the gift of sight?"
>"Yes, why?"
>James turns to see Hammond pointing at his Wiesmann
"Yes James, why have you picked possibly the most ugly car possible to show off to these people? Sorry, these ponies."
>”What’s wrong with it?”
“Just look at it. It’s hideous. It looks like Kong ate a Morgan and this is what came out of the other end.”
>”I quite like it.”
>”James, it’s awful.”
“See, even Hammond hates it, and he actually likes Morgans.”
>”Well at least it’s more interesting than your Mercedes and Hammond’s 911.”
The producers elected to interrupt James’ nonsense with a challenge.
>You open the crisp, golden envelope and unfold the paper contained within.
>>
>>29226509
>Hammond and May stare at you in anticipation as you begin to read
“As you three may have noticed, we’ve sent you to a land of pastel coloured ponies; a car is something they’ve not seen before. The three of you are to drive to Manehattan, the most developed city in Equestria, and see if your cars can take on the Equestrian city life.”
>”That doesn’t sound so difficult, right Hammond?”
>”Well, not really, there must be a catch.”
“There is. I haven’t finished. Equestria has very few paved roads, and no Satellite Navigation. You’ll need to get yourself a map from the library in town.”
>”Oh cock.”
>You and Hammond get back in and start up your cars, filling the area with a sound of calculated German precision, whilst James stood, plotting how best to get to the library.
>Hammond and yourself, however, were just going to drive around until you found it, and in the traditional Top Gear way, you left James behind.
>How hard could it be to find a library, anyway?
>>
>>29226525
As it turned out, very hard. It… was market day.
>You sit behind Hammond, who attempts to traverse his way through the market square, surrounded by hordes of horses bearing a myriad of colours that were trying to go about their business
>You were crawling along, and you weren’t even sure you were going the right way. Evidently, you needed to ask someone, but this was a job for Richard.
>Picking up the radio, you get his attention
“Hammond, you’re going to have to ask for directions mate”
>”You what?”
“Ask someone for directions.”
>”Why me?”
“Because you’re in front.”
>”Yeah, but… They’re all horsey and weird.”
“Oh grow up.”
>”How do we know they even speak English?”
“Just open your window and ask for bloody directions”
>”You know I don’t like foreign things.”
“Hammond, we’re lost in the middle of a foreign town, parked in the middle of a foreign market square, on foreign market day. Wind down the window, and ask a pony for directions.”
>”Alright, alright.”
>Hammond winds his window down, and you watch as he chooses the most Texan looking pony to ask for directions. She has a stetson and everything. Poor, predictable Richard Hammond.
>>
>>29226550
>”Uh… Excuse me, uh, ma’am. You wouldn’t be able to give me directions to the library, would you?”
>”Sure thing sugarcube. It’s in th’ Princess’ castle. Y’all ain’t from around these parts, are ya?”
>”Well, uh, no, not entirely…”
>”Ah guess ah’ll be the first t’say welcome t’ Ponehville. Ah’m Applejack, ah run an apple farm on the edge of town. Y’all should stop by on yer way outta town for sum’n t’ eat, ya hear?”
>Her southern drawl was starting to hurt your brain, and you weren’t even having the conversation
>”Right, well, thanks for that, uh, Applejack.”
>”Ah guess ah’ll see you around, uh, what did you say yer name was again?”
>”Hammond.”
>”Raht, ah’ll see ya around then, Hamm’nd”
>The Texan pony goes on her way as you remove the finger that was stopping your brain from leaking out of your ear.
“So how many lefts did Daisy Duke say we have to turn?”
>Hammond was not impressed with your comment.
>”Haha, very funny. No, she said it’s in the castle, over there somewhere.”
“Right, well lets get a move on then.”
>You put the car into neutral and your foot down on the throttle, the V8 growl startling the ponies in your way and clearing the road.
“Lets see your Beetle do that.”
>>
>>29226583
>You round a corner and get you first good look at the castle
>It was like a giant crystal tree looking affair
“Bloody hell, I don’t know what the architects here must be smoking, but I definitely want some”
>As you pull up, you’re greeted by the sickening sight of James’ Wiessmann
>Hammond gags as he exits his car
>You mock him as you enter the castle, and stop dead in your tracks as you notice the seemingly endless narrow, winding corridors
>”Oh for God’s sake! I’ve only got short legs. I hate walking.”
>Eventually, after multiple wrong doors, much walking and even more complaining from your colleague, you pass an open door and notice James sat at a desk with a purple pegasus-unicorn-horse, reading books.
>He notices you back, as does Purple
>”Took you two bloody long enough”
“It’s market day”
>”Right, well...”
>Purple stands up from her seat to introduce herself
>”You two must be Jeremy and Richard. James has been telling me about you. I’m Princess Twilight Sparkle.”
>She extends a hoof and you awkwardly lean in and shake it.
>”Isn’t Twilight Sparkle that Nissan colour?”
>You elbow Hammond in the ribs and aggressively whisper at him.
“That’s Midnight Purple, you idiot.”
>>
>>29226601
>Midnight Purple looks at the two of you confused and ever so slightly disgusted
>James makes an attempt comfort her
>”Don't worry about those two, they're always like this”
>”Riiight”
>You decided it was time to address the elephant in the room
>Or, more accurately the elephant in your trousers
“Uh, Miss Sparkle, you couldn't point me to the loo could you?”
>”The wherenow?”
>This suddenly got more awkward
“Your toilet”
>”Oh right! It's just down the corridor, second door on the right!”
“Cheers”
>You make your swift escape to go and relieve yourself
>You find the door to the toilet and swing it wide open
>Cue flashbacks to the GT-R vs Train challenge across Japan
>This was no ordinary toilet
>You should've expected that really, this place was populated by magical horses, their bathroom needs were bound to be different to your own
“Bollocks”
>>
>>29226653
>Having finished up your business you return back to the room to find James and Princess Horseface discussing some diagrams on a blackboard and Hammond, leaning on a creased up map, eyeing up some loose rope and the chandelier
>The princess notices you
>”Ah Jeremy! Did you fi-”
“What the hell were the three bloody sea shells for?”
>”Thank God you're back! I swear if I had to listen James explain the benefits of positive displacement superchargers anymore, I was going to positively displace my brains across the floor”
>James scowls at both of you and Twilight looks between all of you like she's missing something
>”Actually we’d moved on to variable valve timing, it's very interesting what you've managed to develop without magic. This internal combustion stuff is fascinating.”
>”Hey Twi, some weird gold letter showed up, I think it's for you”
>Some dopey looking lizard lad wandered into the room, not really paying attention to anything bar his own voice
>What was he, some sort of gecko or something?
>”I don't know what it is, but you need to tell your penfriends I'm not your personal mailbox, a dragon needs his beauty sleep y’kn- WHAAAA?”
>Now he'd noticed you all
>Multiple attempts at further words come from his mouth as Twilight tries to explain what was going on to him
>”Now Spike, these are uhm, these are humans, from Britain. They're here to build diplomatic relations with us.”
>Were you? That was news to you.
>”This is James, Richard and Jeremy. And that's their film crew. They point these strange cameras at us that record everything we're doing somehow. Their technology is amazing.”
>>
>>29226692
>You elect to ignore the conversation going on and take the envelope from Barney the dinosaur and give the challenge a read
“Right, that's enough messing around. You need to start proving what your cars can do. We've arranged a drag race against one of the fastest ponies in Equestria at a local apple farm.”
>James looks at you, confused
>”A drag race? Against a horse?”
“That's what it says here.”
>”So we're racing 560 horsepower against 1? That seems easy enough.”
>You notice Richard smugly daydreaming
“What're you so smug about?”
>”Applesauce said she'd make me something to eat”
>James was now confused
>”Hammond, what on earth are you talking about?”
>”Applesauce. She's a pony that gave us directions. She's got an apple farm on the edge of town.”
>You remember the pony from earlier and suddenly can't help but think of Smokey and the bandit
“Right, we don't have all day, we need to get going.
>You turn and head back out to your car
>”Clarkson! The map.”
>James follows you out grabbing the map, with Richard trailing
>You all leave Midnight Purple and Barney blinking, confused about what had just happened, start up your cars, and follow James on his way to the farm
>You listen to Richard and James bicker over the radio
>”Jeremy, why does James have to lead?”
>”Because I've got the map you pillock.”
>”But your car is disgusting”
>”Your car is a relic”
>>
>>29226727
>You arrive at the farm yard between two flag poles and the three of you line your now very dusty cars up
>You get out to speculate with the others about what you'll actually be racing
>”It's not going to be The Stig’s pony cousin is it?”
>”Don't be stupid Hammond, they don't have cars, they can't have a Stig”
“Well no, if they did, how would they even drive? They don't have hands.”
>”Well yeah, but I've seen them holding stuff.”
“How does that work?”
>”It's quite simple really, their hooves are actually positively charged with-”
>Not in the mood for one of James’ explanations, you and Richard wander off and look around the farm
>There's a messy stack of hay bales behind a barn
>A scheme is hatched between you and your colleague and you begin to rearrange the bales
>Eventually James finds you
>”What are you two knobs doing?”
>”Modern Art mate.”
>”Right. What's it supposed to look like?”
“Well James, you know how there are all those pegasus ponies flying about?”
>”Oh God, you haven’t have you?”
>”Yes we have!”
>Richard seems very proud of himself as he sits straddling a hay bale.
“Yes James, when they look down from above they're going to see a very large gentleman sausage”
>”We should probably run before someone sees this.”
“We should”
>>
>>29226741
>You return to your cars
>The princess and Daisy Duke have arrived and are waiting for you
>As you walk towards them, you hear a sonic boom and everyone's eyes turn upwards
>There was a thick rainbow carving it's way through the sky at pace
>”What the hell was that?”
>”Whatever it was, it broke the bloody sound barrier.”
“Bloody hell”
>”That there wus mah fraynd Raynber Daysh. She's who you’s gonna be racin’ today.”
“Oh for God’s sake”
>”That doesn't make sense, no living thing can break the sound barrier”
>”Well I ain't no ordinary living thing. The name’s Dash.”
>A bright blue pegasus had slipped in behind you all
>Her hair was short, spiky and rainbow
>Was she a lesbian?
>Are horse lesbians a thing?
>You decide not to worry yourself over the sexual preferences of animals
>Her lesbian voice continued
>”So you're who I'm here to race? With those? You don't look fast. This'll be a piece of cake.”
>Her arrogance wasn't going to get a response
“Can we just get this over with?”
>”Yeah yeah, just lemme stretch my wings”
>You and your co-presenters huddle into a group for a pep talk by your cars.
>”Right, forget the horse. Let's just race each other.”
“Well, I've clearly won this”
>”How have you? My car is a GT3. It's basically a race car. And we're on gravel, and who's car has rally heritage? And I'm rear engined, so I can actually put my power down.”
“Yes but Hammond, your car has a flat six, me and James have got V8s.”
>”And? That means nothing on gravel, how many V8 rally cars have you seen.”
“None, but that's because rallying is stupid.”
>”What, just because rallying isn't all about your ape-like POWERRR?”
>”Hammond, how many rally cars have you seen with track semi-slicks?”
>”James, that doesn't matter, race slicks make you faster, everyone knows that”
>”Not on dirt”
>”James, you're wrong.”
“Hammond mate, you're going to lose”
>>
>>29226762
>Rainbow is now lined up with the rest of you on the starting line
>You all start your engines and your V8 growls into life
>The small horse looks up at you, worried
>You smile at her and rev your engine
>She swallows hard, confidence drained from her
>Maybe you actually stood a chance here
>Twilight stands at the side of the makeshift strip, levitating a green flag to her side
>Wait. Levitating? How? What?
>You decide to stop trying to work things out before James starts explaining things again.
>She hovers the flag out further and starts talking
>”Oh my gosh, I'm so excited, I've done so much research into drag racing from the few human sources I could find! So here goes. Drivers! Start your engines!”
>You'd already done that, but you rev it a little more for effect
>Rainbow still looked uneasy
>”Okay… Go!”
>The flag drops and your foot goes straight down on the accelerator
>Rainbow darts off, almost instantly getting up to speed
>Richard seemed to have gotten off the line too
>And James
>You however, were held at ransom by your back tyres fighting for traction, kicking up a huge cloud of dust
>They do bite the ground hard though and you're very quickly moving at pace, reeling in your colleagues
>In seconds you're approaching 100 on your speedometer
>>
>>29226774
>There's a sonic boom and a red shockwave
>And it's coming from James’s Wiesmann
>The sound of your own engine starts coming from behind you
>You check your mirrors and notice a grey shockwave from your own car
>Had you broken the sound barrier?
>You were only doing 130
>James flies past Rainbow
>You fly past Rainbow
>Hammond flies past Rainbow
>You pass James
>You slide to a stop after crossing the line
>May and Hammond pull up next to you
>You get out of the car and shut your door triumphantly and pull your smug face as you walk back around to Richard Hammond who was already out of his own
>”Yes, yes, I know. Semi slicks aren’t for dirt. Your car was faster.”
“Yes Hammond, but forget that. Did we just break the sound barrier?”
>”I think we did you know”
“How the hell did we manage that?”
>”Well, if you two buffoons had actually listened to anything I'd said earlier then you'd know-”
>>
>>29226788
“We'll pick that up a little later on, but now it's time to put a star in our reasonably priced car. Our guest tonight seems to think he's a significant member of a children's TV show even though he only has one line and apparently throws a tantrum is people see him using a urinal. Peter New everybody!”
>Some autistic looking nonce wanders out through the studio crowd acting like he thinks he's somebody and sits down opposite you
>”Hi Jeremy”
“Hi Peter, I'm sure you're itching to tell us about what it is you've been up to lately.”
>”Yeah, so I've been doing-”
“But really what people want to know is, why do you think raw broccoli is a party snack?”
>”Wh- what?”
“And why were you sitting drinking in a bath in San Francisco fully clothed?”
>”I don't even what?”
“Now let's have a look at your lap shall we? The Stig tells us you wouldn't let him ride in the car with you in case he took any pictures of you and posted them mockingly online.”
>”Well no, but…”
>You load the clip up which seems to show Peter struggling to get to grips with a manual gearbox, grinding the gears, struggling to take any corners at any kind of pace and not really managing to keep the car on the track at all.
“Oh dear. I'm surprised you even managed to set a time. How do you even go off there? Did you even use the steering wheel?”
>”I… I…”
“God this is awful.”
>The clip comes to an end
“Well, I do have your time here. Don't bother leaning forward in your seat. It's really not impressive.”
>You scribble down some numbers
“You did it in.. Four minutes… 57 second… point one two. Which puts you…”
>You throw the timing slip over your shoulder
“There”
>>
>>29226808
>We pick up the action in the bar of the local hotel
>You and James sit at a table while Hammond is getting you drinks
“When he goes to bed, I say we sneak out and mess with his car”
>”Go on, what do we do?”
“Well, he's already brought the stupidest car for this trip, but I think I know how to make it worse.”
>James raises an eyebrow
“You know how he keeps complaining that they've ruined the 911 by giving it electric power steering? We take the fuse out, so then he has no power steering.”
>”That's evil, but it's excellent.”
“It is”
>Hammond returns to your table with three pints of a golden liquid
“Took you long enough, what'd they have?”
>”Got you both a cider, it's a local speciality.”
>”It's not bad”
>You taste it yourself, and before you know it you're about 6 pints in and having another friendly dig at Richard
“Hammond mate, you've brought the wrong car.”
>”I've brought the fastest thing here, mine is almost a race car.”
“But the challenge wasn't to bring a race car, it was bring a big, comfy GT car”
>”It is a GT car”
“It isn't.”
>”Yes it is.”
>”No it isn't Hammond, you can take a car that harsh on any sort of long roadtrip. A grand tourer is supposed to get you from London to Monaco in comfort and style, not in the back of an ambulance.”
>>
>>29226839
>Whilst your associates continue to bicker, a purple-pink horse has wandered over to you
>She looks absolutely wankered
>She smells absolutely wankered
>You decide that Richard would really appreciate her company, and so send her in his direction
>With Richard now held hostage and having to play the role of an Alcoholics Anonymous group, you and James make your escape
>”Guys where are you going?”
>Richard helplessly calls as you leave him
>”Guys… Clarkson! James! You can't leave me here!”
>”I- I can schtandf on thwo legth thoo, shee?”
>You hear a loud crash as you make a run for the door but you don't look back
>Your target, the bright white Porsche, was now in sight
>You reach it and try the door
>It's unlocked as usual
>Would he ever learn?
>James and yourself begin your modifications, giggling with immaturity as you show them to each other
>You take a step back to admire your handiwork
>”Jeremy, you can’t write that on there!”
“Why not?”
>”You’re already on your last warning.”
“All I’ve written is American Airlines.”
>”Yes, on a nine eleven.”
“The American viewers won’t notice, they’re Americans.”
>”You’ve got to rub it off”
“Fine. But if he wants a race car I’ll give him a race car.”
>While James continues fiddling in the fuse box, you set back to work with your coloured marker pens.
“Oh yes, he’ll love this.”

>The next morning you and your colleagues meet in the hotel lobby
“Bloody hell, those beds were tiny, my back kills.”
>”There was nothing wrong with the beds, you're just suffering from old age.”
“Of course there was nothing wrong for you, you're three feet tall.”
>”Yes, and my back is fine. So why is being small a problem?”
>”Hammond, can I see your car keys?”
>”Uh, sure? Why d’you want to do that?”
>Richard hand his keys to James, who holds them out of reach, grinning
>”Oh very funny.”
“Are you going to get your keys back Hammond?”
>”I won't give you both the pleasure”
>”Suit yourself”
>James stands smugly, arm across his chest, and other still held up high
>Richard sighs, and starts jumping for the keys
>The sight leaves you and James in tears with laughter as Richard eventually grabs the keys back
>During this, one of the men in white coats has appeared next to you with a golden envelope, which he hands to you
“Oh, here we go.”
>You open the envelope as the man slinks off into the darkness
“You're supposed to be showing the population the superiority of the car, so you'll be driving two Manehattan each with a little pony passenger and their luggage. To make things interesting, you'll be racing their friends on the train. You're to meet them all at the train station in ten minutes.”
>”Better get a move on then”
>You all sprint for the doors and Richard lays eyes on his “upgraded” car
>”Right which one of you was it?”
>You're about to confess but he continues
>”It looks ace!”
>That threw you
“Wh-what?”
>”It looks like a proper race car”
>You'd coloured his car to look like the Loctite liveried Porsche Supercup car
>Evidently he didn't get it
>”Was this you Jeremy?”
“Well, yes…”
>”I don't know what to say, you never do anything nice for me”
>”Oi, can you pillocks hurry up, we've only got seven minutes left.”
“Right, yes”
>You jump in the car and head off

>You decide to spin your tyres as you leave and kick up another cloud of dust
>And then realise you have no idea where you're going
>You grab the radio to ask James to lead you but Hammond beats you to the airwaves
>”Clarkson! What’ve you done to my car? There're warning lights all over my dash!”
“All I did was colour it in, it wasn't me that did anything else.”
>You hear James laughing over the radio
>”James, what’ve you done?”
“James, I need you to lead me, you've got the map”
>”James, you need to fix my car”
>”Sorry Hammond, we've gotta go.”
>”You can't just leave me here”
“Yes we can, you know how this works”
>”Clarkson!”
>James takes lead and the two of you depart leaving your diminutive companion to try and figure out German engineering
>Leaving was a bit of an exaggeration
>Captain Slow was more than living up to his name
“James, I swear if you go any slower I'm going to call you captain bloody stationary”
>”I'm not going to go any faster Jeremy, I don't know these roads and it's a built up area”
“James, we're against the clock for God’s sake”

That shouldn't hold you back, there is someone in the states with one. Sounds like you're making excuses to not get one and would rather get a hairdressers car, good thing you're writing this green otherwise you'd have to hand in your /o/ card.

I'll get one in June on the Le Mans trip. I'm about to test drive a GT86 because yes
>>
>>29231585
If it's between the Mk2 Twingo or the 86 I'd go for the 86 as it's a hoot to drive and the Twingo would be very similar to your Clio. The 86 is a bit gutless but as long as you don't follow the leased Audi brigade mindset of a car is only good if it's like a cruise missile you should find it fun.

It's not between the two, I just wanted to test an 86. Battery was dead though. Not worried about the Twingo being similar, seeing as the Clio is the best driver's car money can buy.

The Clio 200 is a damn good car particularity with the Cup, if I wasn't already into another project/track car and looking to get a new dd I'd be tempted to pick one up, it isn't however the best money can buy. It does offer tremendous value but there are plenty cars that are better for more and a good few for less, I suspect you're putting a lot of sentimental value to it to make this claim.

Seconding the MX5 as best driver's car for the money. You're not going to find a purer driving experience for your cash than a MX5/Miata, hell if you're getting a Mk1 or Mk2 chances are you'll be underpaying.
>>
>>29256251
See, the Clio isn't the best driver's car for the money, it's the best driver's car period. There was an article in Top Gear once comparing it to the MX5, Fiesta ST, GT86, Megane RS, in which it was better than all of them. I took mine to a Supercar rental trackday where I drove R8s, F430s, Gallardos and all that sorta stuff, and nothing comes close the the amount of fun I had driving there and back in the Clio. If you don't agree, you probably haven't driven one properly.

>the Clio is the best driver's car period
Now I know you're trolling. The Clio isn't even the best drivers car from Renault or even the best FWD drivers car out there.
I guess all these journalists and pro drivers saying things like the Honda ITR or NSX Type-R, Ferrari F50, MX5, GTR, M3 CSL etc are all wrong and some boy racer who's spent three minutes in a couple of supercars and crashed a Clio knows more. Adding to this I suppose all the articles saying the Clio is good but the Megane is better are also wrong.

>There was an article in Top Gear once comparing it to the MX5, Fiesta ST, GT86, Megane RS, in which it was better than all of them.
No there wasn't. Any article from the past four years that has Fiesta ST vs. other hot hatches has generally always said the ST is the better car.

Also >If you don't agree, you probably haven't driven one properly.
No I suppose not but what would I know I've only spent countless hours behind the wheel of a borderline Cup spec one. It is a good car and there's obviously a lot of sentimental value in your former car but you're letting that cloud your judgement and making you act like someone with buyers remorse trying desperately to convince himself and others that he made the right choice.

Uhhhh what? Now I love the GT-R, but as a driver's car just no. It doesn't even have a clutch pedal.
And yes, said article did exist, it was an article about buying the Clio used.
I'm not having buyer's remorse, I know I bought the right car and that it was a fucking stupid decision, because now I don't dare drive one again, but I haven't yet found another car the invokes the same feelings when driving. Closest anything has got is the Abarth 595 or the EP3 Type-R. It's all about that journalistic buzzword; character. Statistically, there's loads of stuff better than the Clio, but as far as driving experience goes, I've not found a thing.

I'll write more later, got properly wrapped up in life shit atm and I'm at work right now

Also I kinda want a Polo GTI but Jésus is it expensive with my options

Just get the Ibiza/Fabia it's basically the same car but cheaper, and less likely to get stolen there's been a bunch of VW getting stolen round me at the moment.

Just get a Fiesta ST, easily the best hot hatch made in the last decade.

Can we have a spinoff with Alan Partridge in Equestria? Would he cause mayhem?

Guess all those professionals and people who talk about cars are wrong then.
>>
>>29287457
In terms of shear value you're right. Overall though I'd say the 208 GTi by Peugeot Sport/30th Anniversary seems to be the best; pretty much every reviewer says something along the lines of "performs slightly better than the ST but has a much better interior."
A Pug dealer near me had one and I'm kicking myself for not getting it.

Of course, I should let some guy that gets given the car by Ford and paid to write about cars outweigh my experience actually living with the car and taking it on an international roadtrip for a week. I don't want one, it's good, but it's not the best

Eh fair enough, that wasn't the vibe your post gave though. It felt more like "this is my opinion therefore you're wrong and it's shit" rather than "I've driven it but don't like it but it's still great". It might not be the best for you but for others it is.

Literally the only reason to watch Top Gear.
Who cares about cars when you have three blokes who can barely stand one another.
>>
>>29298084
It has that, but you can see there are bits in it that are too rehearsed and forced, and probably put in by Amazon. It's better than the BBC's shit attempt, and it's very close to original TG, but it's not quite there just yet.

But if you want a bunch of lads dicking about with cars, keep your eyes peeled on the internet for my new project when that drops on the internet properly

This thread has more bumps than OPs car. It should be left to die or moved to a general that's actually alive; hell the majority of the content here is a repost and it's clear that the writer isn't all that interested in doing this.
>>
>>29322737
We're sorry your fetish/nyx/glimmer thread got bumped off the board but it is your own fault for not regularly bumping it.
>>
>>29322737
Agreed. I've seen a guy carry a thread for a month or two on his own, regularly posting sizable updates every other day at the most whilst being a firefighter and getting EMT training.
>>29323186
Don't get butthurt for him pointing out the truth even if that is the case, which I highly doubt, those threads have something this one doesn't. Content. This thread is 90% bumps, there's been what, two or three updates on top of the original repost and the guy has spent more time defending his wrecked shitbox than actually writing.

Well, that was the plan but then
"SHAUN PAINT THIS RACE CAR FOR ME"
"SHAUN PAINT THIS"
"SHAUN GET A JOB"
"SHAUN PAINT MY RACE CAR"
"SHAUN DON'T YOU HAVE YOUR OWN RACE CAR TO PAINT"
"SHAUN HAVE YOU EDITED THOSE VIDEOS FOR CHALLENGE"
"SHAUN HAVE YOU SORTED OUT A MARKETING PLAN"
"SHAUN"
"SHAUN"
"SHAUN"

>James tries to stifle a laugh and the two of you begin to execute your plan
>Within a few minutes, it’s all hooked up and you’re ready to go
>James steps away, and you spin your tires, splattering the tent with mud and chunks of turf as you launch
>You get moving and start running a figure of eight on the grass, tent flailing around behind you
>Richard sticks his head out, holding on for his life to stop himself being thrown out
>”CLARKSON!”
>You continue to snake around, reducing your speed a bit now that Richard was awake
>You mix things up, and instead of the usual figure of eight, you snake about side-to-side
>Richard wasn’t prepared for the sudden change in driving
>You watch in your wing mirror as he goes tumbling out of the tent and gets a face full of mud
>The Polo is brought to a stop under your command, and you join James in laughing at Hammond
>He gets up and shakes of any large chunks of mud, and storms his way over to you
>He was angry, and he certainly looked it
>He starts shouting at you, pointing his finger with each word
>”CLARKSON YOU IMBECILE, YOU COULD HAVE KILLED ME! I COULD HAVE BROKEN MY LEGS! DO YOU THINK THEY HAVE HOSPITALS HERE? I BET YOU IF THEY DO THEY WOULDN’T KNOW HOW TO FIX A PERSON ANYWAY!”
