Your car's been stolen!

Jeremy didn't want the alarm fitted, but, due to the value of the vehicle, the insurer required Ford to install the immobilizer before he could take delivery of it. It was a finger-pointing game between the insurer, Ford, and the third-party that Ford had contracted to install the immobilizer. Just a total fuster-cluck.

Wtf lol.

And he LOVED that alarm didn’t he, the car always started first time too

I know this is pedantic… But it wasn’t a GT40, it was a GT… if it was a GT40, he’d have got even less time behind the wheel than he did considering nobody over six foot two can drive it with the door shut.

😐

Used to have one, absolutely loved it, but had to get a more economical car, and sold it to a friend/acquaintance in 2013, a few months ago I found out he scrapped it, didn't even ask if I wanted to buy it back or anything(sold it to some guy for 400€, because there where lights ON on the dashboard and no power steering), been thinking of buying one now ,but it's a 5k car for a good one and there's even a dude asking 8k atm, And even nostalgia taken into account,it's not worth that

“Are you ready for round 2?”

Ferrari in 1969 made a car too named Sigma

Sigma Fact: Sigma was adopted in the Old Italic alphabets beginning in the 8th century BC. *But that's no fun is it.*

Yeah, every time I see young Jeremy Clarkson, I briefly think he's a completely different person

He actually sounds like someone from the 1950s too with the fake Posh accent lol

@@christineayres7199 ain't that just how he talks? think he just sounds a bit more civil here

@@uuborg9216 Well in Top gear he is very shouty and loud compared to back in the early 90s , I think he does it deliberately to be center of Attention lol

@@christineayres7199 It is the modern received accent, different from actual posh English.

99% of clarkson clips are gold mine

it was almost definitely staged lol

Older cellular tech used more power, with towers fewer and farther between the signal would drop less often, but just be slow overall. You could literally power led light "stickers" that flashed when it rang with old Nokia phones. The point of 4g is more frequent but smaller antennas, so a much weaker but ultimately faster signal with multiple points of connection. It can drop when you lose signal, as the signals are much weaker

@@rajgill7576 yup, this is how it works nowdays

GPS can work on it's own without interenet, just not as quick and fast but still. How come people don't know that.

@Neville Thompson 5g range is very short, wouldn't work in most places yet

I had my window busted on Halloween. Caught the thief on 3 different cameras, and got his license plate as he hung out in my driveway for 10 min before leaving. Police won't do anything. I did their entire job for them and they can't so much as run his plates so I can press charges, or patrol the neighborhood occasionally.

@@rajgill7576 can't count on the police when you need them and you wonder why people don't trust them ;p

@MulaRose Yeah they do the same here. You can tell when its quota time because every second car you pass at night is a cop.

The police didn’t care back then either

@@Kronos0999 haha. Hate them all you want, they built the world that gives you clean water, an education system, modern medicine... Etc. As for the planet, if you've used a disposable mask or plastic gloves the last 2 years, you're part of the problem.

@@Sweaty__Sheep "Clean water?" No, *we* did that. Education system? Lololololol "Modern medicine?" No, their medicine involved giving kids brandy in cough syrups. Again, we changed that, boomer. :)

How do we know he hasn't?

Well some member of the public in another old Top Gear video, suggested that to deter car thieves, they should have a giant spike come up from under the driver's seat if an unauthorised driver is caught in it.

In 2022, I have a 25 year old, 100 series with 200k as the 3rd owner for 7 years, the past owners went on to buy newer Cruisers. Uber luxury, super smooth 4.2tdi & still a dream to drive, unlike the other 2 off roaders. Which I tested & drove. Yes, in-between I've tried to do better, but it all failed. The 6.0 Flying Spur, the 3.0 tdi Phaeton, Merc GLK 2.0 TDI, equal luxury to the old bus, but electric modern headaches & super expensive parts in the end. Friends have the 2020 Range Rovers new ones, every 6 months, they spend more time in the repair garages thus making them, OFF THE ROAD. Only the Kia Sorento 2.2 td was near to the old bus, excellent 38mpg, but failed in comfy seats. My grand total in up keep in 7 years, including services & ABS pump only after 25 years, has been £4500 in 60k. Also Bio fuel at £1 compare to £1.70 A Dam bargain. LONG LIVE the KING. Cruisers.

clarkson’s choice of vocabulary here surprised me as well

He then goes on to say the upholstery has "questionable taste." Look at yourself in the mirror, man!! 🤣

I mean it ain't any safer than a regular alarm system that will do that automatically, the cables are still there and there is a way to bypass it, if you can with normal alarms you can with the manual one. The only way I can see this being beneficial is if the ECU had it from the factory so that it couldn't by bypassed, thats how cars are done nowadays if they have a factory alarm, you just can't call them

The amounts of cars I owned and then later sold/traded..and the regretted man, what your saying here is very relatable🥲

And instead Jeremy praised the Land Rover, a card that turned out to be a complete turd.

Just had my 80's series floorpan rust repaired and whole interior sound deanded and reupholstered, trust me if you want a offroad vehicle get a hilux and thrash that and keep the landy garaged. I regret using my landy off road, its just my towwing rig now whenever i take the 22ft boat out or the caravan for camping and touring.

Fantastic cars. Ive nearly had a few the only issue was rust so I got a MB 190E. I still pine over the E28s and I get excited every time I see them so hopefully I can get a clean one someday soon

I mean, Clarkson is like 60.

They are totally atleast 50 now. Wonder how their doing

Thought the same, most probably a 2.9 v6 EFI. The old cologne/essex v6's really have a characteristic sound to them.
