[On the Corvette] The clutch is making my left leg hurt, and the gear change has been taken straight out of a Victorian signal box.

[On the Corvette] This, then, is America's Porsche 911. But here in Europe, we already have a Porsche 911. It's called the Porsche 911.
[On the Corvette] So, can this one follow in the tradition of its government and get up other countries' noses?
[On the Volvo V50] There's a touch of Ikea to all this, but, reassuringly, an expert has put it all together.
[On the BMW X3]
And if you are clinically insane, by which I mean you wake up in the morning and think you are an onion, here's your car.

[On the Delorean] Ok, look. I'm from Northern Ireland, to start with, right. So if you're from Northern Ireland, and someone actually tries to build a sports car factory, in Belfast, in 1980, when Belfast is more like downtown Baghdad, then manages to come over and build something which is aesthetically quite pleasing, and in the process, manages to take Margaret Thatcher for 100 million, and still has time to end up in a hotel room with a suitcase full of snow that Alberto Tomba couldn't ski down, I think he's a bit of a hero.

[During the opening sequence.]
Tonight: just the thing for an already confused world, another Porsche 911; we get sand in the trunks of 3 muscle cars; and how many bouncy castles can you jump in an ice-cream van?
(About the Porsche 996) "[...] it wasn't so much a car, more a place where a fat, balding, middle-aged man could go off and have his mid-life crisis... I liked it a lot!"
[on the Monaro's high gearing and enormous torque] Here I am, doing sixty miles an hour, in top gear [6th], and the engine is turning over at 1,500rpm - 1500! It's idling! You fat Aussie slacker!
[Testing the Chrysler 300C on the beach] Stop interfering, you piece of... cheap electronic tat!
[On the Porsche 997 Carrera] So to sum up. The new Carrera is pretty much the same as old one except the gear lever comes off. This, however, is not a standard Carrera. This is a Carrera S. And the S stands for: So, fat, balding, middle-aged man, go and have your mid-life crisis somewhere else.
[On the Porsche 911 range] "And then the 3.8 S with the chrono sport pack, for thin, chiselled-jawed people who have no friends. Like the Stig, for instance!"
"The Americans lecture the world on democracy and then won't let me turn the traction control off!"
[On the Hummer aftershave]
It comes in a jerrycan of repressed homosexuality.
[voice-over during the drifting challenge] The Monaro did beat the Jag but now it's the turn of the Chrysler.....and oh dear!
[in the car]The Americans lectured the world on democracy and then WON'T LET ME TURN THE TRACTION CONTROL OFF! IT'S SUPPOSED TO BE A BIG BAD DANGEROUS MUSCLE CAR! [American accent] But sir, you may hurt yourself! [normal voice again] A car designed by health and safety this one.
