    Default Top Gear Blamed For Reliant Robin Damage



    Top Gear and Jeremy Clarkson are once again being blamed for influencing hooligan’s behaviour in the South West of England. 78-year-old Barry Cloughton’s Reliant Robin has been flipped on its roof twice now, both times within hours of the segment airing.

    The first time it happened, only three hours after the episode aired, Barry walked outside to see his car lying on its side, with a scraped door, broken handle and broken mirror.

    I don't condone any stupid behaviour and causing damage to someone else's property but with a car like that, you're pretty much asking for trouble

    After the first time, I definitely would've installed surveillance cameras.

    How you could damage someone's car because of a TV show is beyond me.

    It might all be a laugh for Mr Clarkson but believe me this is not funny for me – I’ve been vandalized and nearly ended up in hospital. Robin Reliants do flip quite easily and the last thing yobs need is someone showing them how to do it. His schemes are ridiculous, irresponsible and dangerous.
    ... Was he in the car when it happened?
