Clarkson Quote

[Tegan]

Dont know how many of you listen to Galaxy Fm radio (not sure if its just oop north or not)

But they have this guessing game on in the morning , they play a clip of Jeremy Clarkson saying these words:

'This is like a mobile version of Euro-Disney'

You have to guess what car he's describing, its been going on for months now and its bugging the hell out of me - i just want someone to guess it

There are five clues:

1. Pre-dates the hong kong handover

2. Mono brow

3. Dive bomb

4. Beagles dad

5. Daylight

There is a list of incorrect guesses here: Incorrect guesses

Oh its definetly a car - not a truck or a tank or anything else - its a car.

I thought id share the misery with everyone - guess away - as i dont know the answer i hope it bugs you as much as it has done me

p.s i thought it could be something japanese - with reference to dive bomb - ie kamikaze pilots etc and with daylight - could 'land of the rising sun' but stuck as to which jap car it is!

MAZDA BONGO??

[Caz SR]

Hehehe I heard that JC couldn't remember himself!!

[Tegan]

Thats true apparently - anybody got every episode of topgear EVER?

Make for a good sunday - try to find the episode he said it in

[knowlson]

I wonder if it's on one of the Top Gear vids on google video!!

[Tegan]

Go find out - and let us know :D We wont expect you back any time soon :P

[Caz SR]

:ffs: How frustrating is this?? Everything I thought it might be has been crossed off the list. My guesses were;

Triumph Spitfire (definately predates hong kong handover, spitfires dive bomb)

Renault Modus

he he sorry for inflicting this :P

But now you know how i feel :!Removed!:

Ive no idea what 'beagles dad' could relate to have you?

[Fidgits]

right...

lets think logically...

firstly, pre-dates the hong kong handover - i take it that just means it was an episode before 1998...

mobile version of euro disney...

hmmmm - okay - so a copy of something american, but doesnt quite do it as well... or even, just sucks...

hmmmm, i need to think this one over...

No. When I put Beagle's Dad Car (random words) into Google, I get a very worrying summary from a 'petition' website :!Removed!:

Thats why darren keeps saying it and watching top gear re-runs! now i can switch the tv off

[Tegan]

Tell him to keep watching - could be worth £1800 to him! :D

[Blaze]

Its not worth the hell...i can think of better ways to earn money

[Tegan]

Ah let him have his fun shaz , look at it this way - the sooner someone guesses correctly the sooner he'll shut up :D

[Demonic Angel]

I'm sure I remember seeing that episode and commenting on the whole "Disneyworld" thing, am a big fan of all things Disney....

But I can't for the life of me remember anything else! :ffs:

[Karma Supra]

Its not the Cadillac STS is it?????

Failing that, one of the "big" french cars... they tend to be driven my kamakaze drivers too!!!! (laguna etc)

[Fidgits]

i thought it would have been the XM or Xantia too Charlie, but they are both on the guessed list...

[Karma Supra]

Well, clearly I didn't read that....

My posts would be crap if I actually read through everything first :D

[Moffmo]

[Bibbs]

[Moffmo]

but he's so right !!

i know :D :D :D

[Karma Supra]

I like him more and more every day :D

[daktari]

???????

[Jones~32]

Moffmo that is well funny

Nice find

[SMW]

The eurodisney angle may not mean an American copy - could mean tacky, garish styling, lots of plastic etc.

That narrows things down a bit . . . . :D
