Clarkson Shoot-out
The 30 Cars of 2003 Put to the Test to Find the Best

Jeremy Clarkson has truly cemented himself in the world of not only car reviews but also entertainment and this gentle giant definitely has the gift of the gab when it comes to this.

The best aspect of Clarkson Shootout is that it focuses on his favourite cars of 2003 as he puts them through a variety of tests from speed to accessories and the like that is always a joy to watch and it not just infotainment but rather entertainment because most of us could never afford these cars.

Best of all, that snazzy Top Gear feel is still there as he races road, sports and prototype cars, it's easy to be drawn into his excitement and on most occasions, the only thing I could think of was what a lucky bastard Mr. Jeremy Clarkson is.

Clarkson Shootout is almost like an MTV music video in the way the cars have been filmed and of course the music as we see some amazing vehicles such as the Porsche GT3 and the Pagani Zonda to name a few of the cars showcased on this DVD.

Even if cars are not your style, Clarkson has a knack of making it your style and it's quite a well presented DVD... definitely one if you're a Top Gear fan or lover of prestigious sports cars!
