Am hoping there might be a female presenter as well....Jody or Vicky would be good - or the wonderful Susie Perry!!
By Vicky do you mean Vicki Butler-Henderson? Have you ever read what she thinks about Morgans? She's not a fan! ~iw Oooo gone right off her then!!

Years ago I learned that slight understeer that can be corrected with power on exit is the fastest way through the corners in a Morgan, sideways is spectacular , yes , but it loses time. Same is true for most cars on tarmac - the sideways mode only really works on gravel as you effectively gain a extra clutch.

Who knows Clarkson maybe there as the Stig ! No way!!!!!!!! Clarkson comes from the Tiff Needle school of driving , i.e. the more sideways a car is , the faster it must be going. Years ago I learned that slight understeer that can be corrected with power on exit is the fastest way through the corners in a Morgan, sideways is spectacular , yes , but it loses time. Ahhh so that why so many Scandinavians never won rallies ;-)......different surfaces, different styles Andy. Some like going round and round in circles (gettinglostafobia) where as some need to be told which way the road goes (dontlikebeingaloneafobia). Sideways to Victory.

Tiff at least knows how to drive. I've no idea if Clarkson can really drive or, as I suspect, much of what you see on TG is all smoke and mirrors.

Tiff at least knows how to drive. Sort of, he is not mechanically sympathetic and appears incapable of driving smoothly. I'd not lend him a car.
