I remember working on these when I was a Renault tech, and the previous non-turbo version. Quite nice looking, awfully slow, horribly unreliable, terrible electrics, shocking build quality and a crap engine, and those are the positives!

What a douch*bag!

it was a Debut for Colin McRae ( Legendary Rally Driver MC Rae ) It was the First and the last Race..

On that side of things...

🤔 Why has it got an (MCU) Avengers badge on it?! 😐

Here because of Sniff’s story 😂

Why mate why

That chip on his shoulder is what really hurt him, not the crash itself. It reminds me of the autodafe by the Nazis in the 1930s. Destroy what you fear is a threat to your narrative.

Is nobody gonna point out the wipers on this car

What a bozo this guy is

What a dick move by a total dick. Clarkson, you should be ashamed.

At least one view showed he wasn't in the car for the crash. And then he complains that it hurt. Does he also complain about people not taking him seriously? Because, we really shouldn't. I think his entertainment value (such as it is) depends on understanding that he's not to be taken seriously.

This French bashing video is so correct: alpine never won the WRC, Renault never won F1 races and championships, Citroen never won the WRC, the R5 turbo 2 is not a super car, the mega RS is a slow family car and the Citroen Xantia does not have the world record for the deer test that Porsche can’t beat… 405 mi16 also a commuter car and so on… it reminds me of a comment from an Englishmen: it’s ok for anyone to win the rugby World Cup, but not the French…. And that news article in an English paper showing à guillotine of the other side of the euro tunnel at the time they we’re making it… it really seems to me that some Englishmen (not all of course) really need to spend some time in therapy to reduce their anger level towards the French to reduce their risk of hart attacks… but maybe it is therapeutical to Tran the French when stressed out. Henri Laborit would agree with that (look up his studies).

Comments really betray the real hate this Englishman has for the French…don’t blame the poor maintenance poor the car…. You can see videos of any old poorly maintained cars with real driving and engine issues being tested and breaking down for the video… I can do the same he did on this video with any car even with a good reputation been poorly maintained and not checked out before the video…

Interesting how in 1992 Jeremey mentioned none of this……

Es gibt schon seltsame Menschen

That's a nice design. I believe the old man has cataracts. Or he hates the French.

Dont give a nice car to a monkey

Clarkson......le plus débile et le plus grand "abruti" que le monde automobile ait produit. Je hais ce CONNARD !

какая серия, пацаны?

Not cool. Destruction that proves how little cars matter to the destroyer, for cheap shock value. Boo! This clip sucks ass! Booo!

He obviously wasn’t at the wheel. You can clearly see the marks of the door on the tarmac showing it was opened and then closed before Clarkson reopened it for the show. Stupid af.

🔔 end.

sorry but i disagree with Clarkson with this car, he really went too far with this.

Who da freak moves highway cement on to an airfield for a car show? Oh!!! To film a CRASH from Multiple cameras!🙄

J'en voudrai toujours à cet abruti d'avoir détruit une si légendaire et rare automobile. Si seulement il pouvait en faire autant avec les voitures anglaises...

0:34

the car was a GT not a sports car. What an idiot. And what a waste of a beautiful alpine.

ass i told him to his face your an a..hole blood fool at perth scotish rally

Lamentable comme comportement on veut détruire une marque on ferai pas mieux fera pas ce genre de comportement avec une allemande reprend du thé pour retrouver du flegme

That car would be worth a bloody shed load of money now!

Love the car 💪🧠 Bonjour

It seems to me it is a very safe car

Hülye barom! 808-ból 62 volt jobb kormányos. Egy kuka! Csak nekem nem tűnik akkora poénnak, hogy ez megérte-e?

One more time, Jeremy trying to show how smart and funny he is but really just making a fool of himself.. A genuine British idiot

What a way to show you are racist with a broomstick up your $&&

Idiot!

Sarcasm is the last bastion of a feeble intellect

Love how Clarkson rags on both the Venturi and the A610 here but, back when they both came out, he reviewed both of them at the same time and loved them

I have been looking for this clip for years. I remembered his "so,... there we are" comment after the crash. Too funny

Is it true that you challenged him in a radio show years ago, and he admitted he actually quite liked it? I mean, i still love him, but if it is true, all this things he said and did to the little blue Alpine were meant for what? Did he say he like the looks?

I've ridden in a coworker's Renault Twingo and that car had to be the cheapest made car I have ever seen, but I don't thing it was worth destroying a car like this just to show the quality of Renault.

Clarkson is estupid forever..

He would have not done that to a British car....but normal for him since this is a French car...This guy is totally stupid and should seek medical help for his brain.

honte à top gear de massacrer une telle voiture .... je boycott cette émission 🤮😡😤🤬

This dude unironically put the A610's predecesor, the GTA, in his 100 best cars list (an hour-long special similar to this, but around 6-10 years earlier iirc). I don't know what got into him here.

Este tipo es un imbecil no puedes destruir un vehículo solo porque no te gustó, esto claramente una queja ala industria automotriz francesa, típico de ingleses se creen perfectos!

Oh dear ! the big mouth bore gets it wrong again !!

This wasn't top gear this Jeremys own video

19.16 is what you are looking for, thanks for uploading
