His style hasn't changed much, has it? This would be a young,
fresh-faced Clarkson (before he'd even been on Old Top Gear, I think,
and he looks about 12 in some of his earliest appearances), yet you
could easily imagine old, grey-haired, Clarkson off New Top Gear
writing that.

I still like James May best, though. I expect he was writing for Classic
Tractor or Practical Steam Pump Monthly back in '87.
