Rather emotional report. Anyway... I guess there's nothing wrong with a good pay. And even better... he spends his money on a beautiful car  What I personally dislike, is the fact, that this guy does not know, how to retract the hood.  I really hurts me, when I see the tension on that little fastener.

The title of the article gives a clear indication what slant the feature is going to take: Cigar-chomping BBC fatcat Jonathan Ross shows off his new £40,000 sports car
The guy works for a living and if the BBC want to pay him that level of salary to do a job, why should anyone else have the right to tell him what to spend his money on?!?  And if the writer has his facts right and he is getting £18 million... a Morgan is hardly extravagant! I hope he has an AeroMax on order as well... stick that in their pipe! (or should that be sidepipe?  The entire article stinks of envy and tree-hugging-poor-me-rhetoric.  (climbs down from the soapbox!  )

"Ross was seen driving near the BBC's television centre, in the 2008 version of the classic car which starts at £30,000, and that doesn't include the flashy stainless steel wire wheels - only available on Ross' Roadster model for an additional £2,300, nor the red leather interior Ross' car sports - a snip at £2,400." i like the black and red

(or should that be sidepipe? I agree, what's £40k when he's getting £18mil, in fact i'm surprise he's so modest.Unless he already has a couple of Aeromaxes on order... The writer seems to make a big deal out of the roadster optional extras, don't really get it  Well at least Morgan has some decent exposure out of this

I'm surprised....the man noted for his unruly hair and brightly coloured suits has actually got very good taste!  Good on him! Surely the Morgan is fast becomming THE car to be seen in....oh no! it'll be footballers next!!

I'd say he's a cheapskate - he can easily afford an Aeromax...
