The SLS had a terrible launch and pulled the F car , that was pretty amazing considering they have = power and Clarkson is a fatty

A thing is worth what someone will pay for it, if you don't have it, you can't get it. ( equally boggling)

And don't tell me the sound of the CLK BS was a reason to buy one, it's nice



but it ain't no sports car, enjoy it.

Love this episode. Love Top Gear UK in general. Sucks that Top Gear US is incredibly boring and can't measure up to the originators.

You contradict yourself at every turn. First you say:

But now you're glad you didn't buy the SLS because it's too loud ??
