I'm a very tolerant and and easy going individual, however, the recent episode where they decided they should become all political and paint their cars in rainbow to 'protest' against some laws in the country they were visiting was the last straw.

It is a car show, not a political activist outlet, and the BBC really need to wind their neck in.

Aside from the politicizing, it is all about ruining perfectly good, and sometimes rare, cars, for nothing other than entertainment. At least the JJR at least had proper respect for cars, in most cases.

I would disagree. It’s (like most things on tv) entertainment first and foremost. And the beauty of tv is that you can switch it off.
