RE: [doc] The 100 most popular cars..ever (and the crappiest 50 - allegedly!)

["Colm Nugent" <colm.nugent@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

As many of you already know, the BBC Top Gear stocking-filler this year is a
rather thin offering called "Crap Cars", of which there is a list of 50.

The DMC 12 makes it in at no 39, sandwiched between the Volvo 340 and the
Vauxhall Belmont.

For those of you, like me, to tight to buy the book, the top 50 list may be
found here.

Sadly, I can argue with very few of their choices.  I expect if we'd bought
a factory fresh D in 1981 - before the modern upgrades were made available -
at the thick end of $25,000 or thereabouts, we'd be fairly disappointed
cookies.

Chris, get them to tell you what issue it's in and don't let them stick you
in the 'look at this odd bloke and his funny car' bit at the back.

Regards

Colm

  Our cars are certainly getting in the press regularly. I have got a
  photographer coming up next Monday to photo Backy for Top gear magazine.

  Hi All,
         A few weeks ago I posted that I had been contacted by
  Granada TV. They wanted to use a positive comment I made about the
  D when I voted for it.
  The series is set to start on Wednesday 8th Dec a 21:00 on
  Men & Motors.
  Will see if the D fairs better this time.
  All the best
  Nick H
