Theres plenty of rough Alpine's out there to prove a point should it HAVE to be done but to do it to that particular car was rediculous. I understand the need for entertainment but to compare a classic 17-20 year old design with todays supercars is totally unfair and I honestly expect better from Clarkson (or do I?) And to say the Venturi was rubbish as well...I know times move on but surely he should judge these things in comparative fairness!
Am so pleased to have my A610, I almost feel a duty to protect these wonderful cars from people like JC. I am convinced there are few cars on planet earth that get such a reaction as when I'm driving my yellow A610. And generally it's a nice 'what the hell is it, glad someone owns one' kind of reaction rather than 'there's another prick in a Porsche/Ferrari/BMW' reaction. That's the beauty of the car for me. People don't resent that you own it, they are pleased that cars with soul and character exist. I can honestly say, there is no other supercar that I would rather own at any price. The A610 has always been my ultimate fantasy supercar. Now it IS my ultimate supercar, I just love it (quirks and all!).
