There are ways and means of getting about that don't involved four wheels, but in this slice of vintage Clarkson, Jeremy isn't much interested in them. Back in 1996, he took himself off to 12 countries (well, 11, he went to America twice...) in search of the hows, whys and wherefores of different nationalities and their relationships with cars...There were a few questions he needed answers to such as why Italians are more interested in looking good than looking where they are going? Why do Indians crash a lot? How can an Arab describe himself as `not a rich man' with four of the world's most expensive cars in his drive? and why have the otherwise neutral Swiss declared war on the car?...
