Top Gear manages to offend the Jordster!

Top gears Jeremy Clarkson, James May and Richard Hammond are well known for their outspoken nature and have once again landed themselves in trouble.

 The naughty trio recently had to apologise for offensive jokes made about Mexicans – managing to offend most of Mexico, they claimed that their cars reflected national characteristics and were ‘lazy, feckless, flatulent and overweight.’

The slap on the wrist they were given for that jibe obviously wasn’t a good enough telling off though as they managed to offend Katie Price on last nights show.

The 50-year-old presenter Jeremy Clarkson referred to the model’s pink horse box vehicle as a ‘pink whore’s box.’ Straight after denying the comment when Richard Hammond asked what he had just said and Clarkson replied: ‘Horsebox, what did you think I said?’

He then followed up his offensive joke by saying the glamour model should get a number plate that read ‘ME11ONS.’

Luckily for him Price seen the funny side and told The Daily Star: ‘Well I’ve got BA11S if they want to swap!’

 In Richard Hammond’s apology speech he said: ‘Were occasionally naughty, who isn’t?’

 This is the latest controversy that the BBC has faced and we’re sure it wont be the last.

 Do you think the three presenters can take their jokes a little far at times?
