An environmentalist group wasn't happy with him for raving about gas-guzzling motors on Top Gear:

wow I expected that to happen much sooner than later. I guess he'll run his mouth much less now. But I still don't think he deserved the pie in the face, a simple protest against the show is much more respectable, throwing pies are for kids. These enviromentalist should grow up.

It could also be a mad M5 owner. He did bash the E60 a lot when he tested the M5

I have to say that his reaction to this incident is very cool and relaxed (kinda funny actually).. Especially the comment on flying in the bananas... hilarious..

Clarkson loved the M5 - says it may well be his next car. Didn't really bash the E60 at all, all his reviews are like that

The pie definitely wasn?t organic. And just think how much jet fuel was used flying the banana over here.




That's so true!
