    To think that Clarkson would fling another car 25 years later on The Grand Tour's "Carnage A Trois" special.
    And to also think that Clarkson and May never said the Nissan Sunny was the "Worst Car in the World" for the "Worst Car in the World" DVD special either.
    34:15 - Fuck, that was hard for me to watch. I know it was anywhere from 25 to 30 years ago, but I'm just reminded of the tragedy that happened in 2021 at Brands Hatch right around that spot.

They got it to 20,000 after the odometer rolled over. Had a 850GLT, stick, loved it. Timing belt went at 267,000 and yes I did replace it at 80,000 intervals. My last one, an s60 did 247,000 miles. No issues till the transmission went after a flush. Replaced it with what was supposed to be a rebuilt transmission. The shop that put it in closed and was sued 3 weeks after I got it installed. It broke again, at 70mph on the turnpike here. Almost died. A criminal transmission shop cost me a beautiful car.

I was a senior in high school, captain of the football team, pretty blonde girlfriend, the internet was just starting and it wasn't the evil thing it's become, cars didn't have all these weird doodads on them and there was actually popular music that wasn't rap/hip hop or has that "bend" to it, I considered myself on the left side of politics because the left hadn't yet become the fasict, racist organization it is today which now by default puts me on the right because I'm not insane, Hollywood was still making good films, I could go on almost forever. Even the kids today knows everything sucks. If you asked a teenager in 1996 how life is more than likely they would have had postive things to say. Ask a teenager now and you'll not get the same answer.

      ''90;s were a pretty good era. I was maybe 15 years ahead of you, but did feel it was a good time with much promise for the future. And the politics... yeah, I was a "bleeding heart conservative" or "liberal light". Look back at Bill Clinton, a democrat beloved by his party. His policies and positions today would make hum a hard-core righty. How have things gone so far to the lunatic fringe in a couple decades???

    Clarkson should do commentaries on his old videos like these with his updated thoughts now. The 355 is better looking than the E-Type? Maybe when it was new it was striking, but now it looks like a mid-90s Ferrari. Good looking car, but the Jag held up better, aesthetically.

      I belive the F355 vs E-Type thing is a matter of taste, it depends on your taste of cars
      The E-Type's design is infinitely more unique though, the F355 is heavily remeniscent of cars like the SW20 MR-2 or the Fiero GT

      I have to agree with you. And Chrysler was hitting a truly sweet spot with the dodge challenger/charger and Plymouth cuda and other variants. The mid 60s Chrysler 300s were really special too. It’s a shame how quickly they crashed and burned after say 74. There was no reason in hell the big 3 couldn’t have designed great looking smaller cars. The only car Pontiac made that looked great after 74 was the firebird, which was designed during the epic era.

    1. Crash into a tree, shot from tank, trebuchet throw - there were some of many more Clarkson's ways to destroy "bad car".
    2. I can't wait the moment when soundtrack to entire video (or even Clarkson's home video series) will be out on YT or even Spotify. From my personal perspective, I am unable to find soundtrack from this movie even by searching with "Brian Hodgson and Peter Lincoln" phrase.
    3. JC continued to destroy (bad in his opinion) cars in odd ways in movies following "Unleashed on cars", like "Apocalypse Clarkson" and "Clarkson: At Full Throttle", up to "Top Gear".

    That line about the styling of the Nissan Sunny being the same on both sides is stolen from a famous story about legendary Italian car designer Giorgetto Giugiaro seeing the Triumph TR7 for the first time in 1974. "He walked around the car, paused for a moment, and said: “My god! They’ve done the same on this side as well.”

    Ferrari 355, can we point out that originally Ferrari wanted to build 500 of them, pricing them around 130'000 Euros, then, because of demand, they built over 5000 of them at prices as low as 65'000. Those that bought them in speculating on the price rising, were badly disappointed. And the car basically fell from grace.

    Best car ever made, for all intents and purposes, all things combined was Mercedes W123. Not a rush of adrenaline, but not boring to drive. Practical 5 seater with big trunk, but still good looking. Timeless classic that can keep up with modern roads and traffic. Endlessly reliable. Comfortable to the Nth degree with armchair like seats. Looks of a Greek temple on wheels. Like a little black dress in motorised form. Mechanical symphony of pleasure in the form of engine sound. It can cruise in comfort on Autobahn, but can withstand rugged roads of Balkans. "Driving a Mercedes is like being transgender, it never leaves you unless you chop the whole thing"...

    Well, the Nissan Sunny. Maybe not "THE BEST CAR OF THE WORLD". But I had one. Used it to drive between Essen and Hamburg In Germany every week. It did this job for quite some time. First repair occurred after 140.000 km . Something like 90,000 miles. Great car. Spent quite some time of my life in it. I had a Mercedes 280 TE after it - which was not so reliable. What is good depends pretty much on what you understand by the term "good".
