I think the BBC was desperate to get a presenter with charm, wit, good looks, etc - qualities all sadly lacking in CE

It's in the article referenced above...

Quote:
LeBlanc has twice appeared on Top Gear on its popular "star in a reasonably priced car" segment and holds the record for the fastest ever celebrity lap.


I think he could be quite good..

Did anyone see James May last night ie his programme about 4x4s? Seems like Toyota owe their success to the Americans using Landcruisers in the Korean War and the Taliban using them in the middle east giving them lots of free publicity. Land Rover by comparison, lost out on marketing the Defender across the British Empire. 3 x FL1 2 manual + 1 auto
5 x FL2 4 manual + 1 auto

Yes, a good programme and worth a watch. It's on BBC iPlayer - Cars of the People, or something like that.
