OH NO!

In all fairness, my Nissans are pre-1999, so its all good.

Found a fun page of Clarkson Quotes

couple of my favorites

"This car is more fun than the entire french air
force crashing into a firework factory"

On the Vauxhall Vectra VXR - Clarkson: "There is a word to
describe this car: it begins with "s" and ends with "t" and its
not "soot".
Hammond: "So its fairly terrible then?"
Clarkson: "Oh no...losing your leg is fairly terrible: this is
another league of badness!
