James May's Autocar Magazine Sacking References Compilation

took clips from youtube exclusives:

[incTG]

also includes the single other time autocar was mentioned

[gaptoofgranny]

Some say, he was traumatized by stairs at an early age. Others say, he cannot be on a road while not in a car. All we know is, he's called The Stig.

[LethalJizzle]

Humour? Fun? Not taking things seriously? In car journalism!? You're fired!

Little did that man know there was a vagrant rifling through the bins outside the Autocar offices who went by the name of Andy Wilman, who had just been given a brilliant idea.

[s.z.x.]

Glad he’s fired, or he could only hide his talent in a regular car magazine instead through all the decades of making fun and jokes

"I was ruined" says one of the three most famous motoring journalists in the world

Heh

[ultgamercw]

That's so much work to put a small joke into a car magazine that almost no one would look for. James May is amazing.

"As a result of that I was ruined." [Enters $125, 000 Tesla]

When May turned up on Top Gear all those years ago, be honest we all went..😳

Turns out he was a legend in his own right.
God I miss Top Gear.

[MinutesVideos]

If i was the editor of Autocar Magazine i would regret my decision of sacking him

[Denes]

This really is one of the funniest stories around top gear

[philipsalama]

I love how James acts just a little bit offended and sensitive when Clarkson brings the firing up, even though he really doesn't seem to care anymore. Good on him for being willing to take the piss out of himself for a joke. Too many presenters let their ego get in the way of a good gag.

[TheYeetusLord]

"The styling is unlikely to win fans amongst those of us with the gift of sight" Can only sound as funny as it is coming from James May because it perfectly fits his way of insulting people😂

[wardfrak]

The management director should have said: “You’re fired because you are wanted on Top Gear”

[derlangsame]

"As a result of that, I was ruined".

Hmm yes sure.

[John_Hemingway]

8:35 Are you guys still filmi... oh shit!

[IgnoredAdviceProductions]

He honestly sounded more annoyed about having to walk home

[applejuice]

SO YOU THINK IT'S REALLY GOOD, YEAH? YOU SHOULD TRY MAKING THE BLOODY THING UP. IT'S A REAL PAIN IN THE ARSE.

[DeanMoxley]

1:12 I did wonder if that clip would appear, many won't know what HIGNFY is

[vaughandurful]

Thank God he was fired or we wouldn't have been delighted by him for all these years on TG, TGT, Our Man In Japan/Italy and his other varied projects that we have enjoyed.

Having read the message, if I was alive and the managing director I would have laughed my arse off and insisted that James would stick around and edit the magazines to have hidden messages.
