Default Clarkson what the?

OK Seen top gear and Clarkson was testing the v8 monaro which is the vauxhall something? for europe, now he calls it an "aussie car" and in the same sentence says "same engine as the corvette" hm now the 'vette is an American car with an American engine, so how can the car be Australian when the powerplant comes from the USA?

Now as best as I can tell the engine in the car is the vette engine, and yes its an American engine

There are 100% aussie designed and built cars here, but he isn't interested seemingly, which I think is a shame as some of them are very good cars.

Do I have my facts wrong or does Clarkson, and by the way Clarkson Australia has done alot since the rotary clothes line, we are not as dim as you made out. The win/loss ratio for rugby Australia vs England is in our favour, don't get too excited your country stopped eating scones and taking tea to beat us once.

Bring on the flames!
