he talked about that on top gear- sold it when we realized that whole mess about the tires/ wheels being so expensive to replace

 

this list is funny- except for sergio perez. an X3 and a Z4?

 

LMAO...he has a $2 million car and is worried about tire costs?

 

That's very interesting.

A colleague of mine has a father who bought a villa from Alain Prost. During the negotiations, Prost drove her father somewhere in his car - an Audi - and said he only buys Audis for his family because they are the safest car. Wonder if he really believes this or if he's on Audi's payroll ...

 

Interesting how one of the elite motorsports racers of the world drives an every day "Joe the Plumber" type of vehicle. Oh but I should point out, his Cherokee is not really a Jeep. You have to be a Jeep person to understand.
