Mash has it right as always: The Daily Mash - Clarkson explodes
Clarkson explodes
30-09-11
JEREMY Clarkson, the veteran broadcaster and denim enthusiast, has exploded at news of the proposed 80mph motorway speed limit.

Director Tom Logan said: “We were just setting up a shot of him sneering at a village when he paused to read a text message on his phone. The next minute the car’s whole interior was spattered with a bright red and oily black substance.”

No need for satire:
It is, however, not fine to have an 80 limit in Britain because then, the police will turn a blind eye to those doing 95. And 95 on British motorways is too fast.

My Caddy CTS with LPG does a trip computer indicated 32 mpg at the legal limit with the old instant mpg thing on on trip computer.
For some reason despite being European spec thats US gallons, so that's roughly 37 mpg imp. and given LPG is half price from Morrisons - equals 74 mpg effectively. Call it 50 mpg, still cock on for a 3.6 ltr auto....
Love this car!Comment
