That's novel.  I've never heard of a car being a nonce before.

If you want an Avenger, get a Crimson one
 

A lad in my class at school's mum had one of those with a similarish number plate - E424XBW.  At the time our maths teacher had a decrepit Citroën GS with the registration XBW242V.  I found this quite an interesting coincidence.  Yes, I was already a sad nerdy little twat at the age of 10.

have we had this yet ?

I really don't like Jeremy Clarkson. He's a smart man, if you've ever watched him on a show like QI he's clearly intelligent, which makes some of the shite he spouts that much worse. He must know what he's saying and the potential effects of it, and yet is willing to still spout it. It really grates on me. I feel like he should do better.
That said, I remember Top Gear before he took the reins and it was SO DRY. I used to watch it with my dad when I was a child and even he found it boring sometimes. Whatever you think of Clarkson he played an absolute blinder when they came up with the new format. It made cars, and car culture, more accessible to a much wider range of people, it was actually entertaining. He and his team deserve every bit of credit for what they did. It says a lot that so many of the team quit when he went. Obviously Hammond and May did, but also crew, producers, directors, editors etc. all went with him. Even the guy he punched in the face went with them I think.
The problem they were always going to face was what happens after Clarkson. The entire format of the show was centered around him and his persona, when he retired/left it was always going to struggle. They shouldn't have tried to continue the show without making major changes to it. What those changes would be I don't know. They couldn't go back to the way it was before, it just wouldn't work with the new audience.

Why, just WHY! FFS 
Imagine them in the motor factors explaining what they wanted 😆
