Seems it was a much-loved example a few years ago, so Richard's mindless vandalism was a bit pathetic. Maybe some rust bubbles underneath the shiny paint in a couple of the captures and during the clip, so may not have been as pristine as it looked. |

Why is Hammond destroying the last remnants of the British car industry? |
◊ 2019-04-13 08:15 |
^ Hammond's dad brought one of these back in the day instead of Cortina, Hammond wasn't please with it. |

Because it's ugly |

Maybe we should therefore start a list of things for Richard to smash up in the next series?? |

Yes a Chevrolet Uplander would work well for that list. |

Hammond could start a TV show called "Richard Hammond destroy cars" |

Episode 1 - the new BMW X7 - as well as being %7~*ing ugly, it's %7~*ing enormous, so he might also need Episode 2 to do it properly. There could also be a parallel show for James May as the re-assembler - he's done it before - and Richard should have to humiliatingly beg James to reassemble this Allegro back into a fully restored and intact state to make up for his stupid tantrum here. But the X7 could stay wrecked, because no-one will ever love it. |

BMW X7 is indeed ugly. Some people do like the X7, I don't. I hate the X7. I want to smash the BMW X7 and yell "You deserve it!". I don't care if I make people cry, I hate that %7~*ing thing. I also want to destroy a Ferrari with a sledgehammer. -- Last edit: 2019-04-16 20:46:40 (AnimatronixX) |

I remember the first render of the X7 had me hyped four years before the car came out - the final design looks simply awful. Still better than an X6 though. |

I can understand why Richard didn't like this car. A station wagon that size in the '70s having only two doors is just ridiculous, plus it looks like a hearse. Appropriate, seeing as Richard died inside when he first saw it Also, the fact that I thought this was a mid-'70s car until I saw it's listed year as 1981. Also, I would like to add the pre-facelift RAM ProMaster van to that list of cars for Richard to destroy. I would drive a Citroen Ami 6 and a Subaru B9 Tribeca before I'de drive that ugly thing. |
