But at the other end of the Fiat spectrum, the Punto is super cool. Icy cool. And it's the same with all small European hatchbacks. And yet the Fiesta and the Corsa are not. The Ford and Vauxhall are like the coffee you get at Starbucks.
And there's a big, big difference. Then there's the new Nissan Micra. Oh, dear. Moving up a notch, all mid-range four-door saloons are uncool. A Vectra or a BMW 5-Series, a Mondeo or an Audi A4, all medium-sized saloon cars, with the possible exception of the Saab , suggest you're more interested in practicality than style. End of story. Everyone's saying the Nissan Z is hot and they're absolutely right, it is.
All Japanese coupes are uncool. The TT was cool for 10 minutes but now they are far too common and as a result, it's gone. Funnily enough, the Porsche is cool. It wasn't in the Eighties when it was all stripy shirts and braces.
But now the image is repaired and it's almost up there with the Aston Martin Vanquish, which could give a man frost bite at paces.
There is another car that could get into this section - providing it's driven by the right sort of person. What do you need to make this cool? Sit down, Subaru Impreza fans. You could have tits like Zeppelins and it's still not coming in. It's a great car, the Impreza, but it's not cool. At the top of the tree, it's almost impossible to be cool.
And if you turned up at Kristin's house with a Zonda, she'd hide in the wardrobe. You're much better off using a Volvo V70 estate, mainly because that's what she actually uses herself. Jaguars have an air of coolness about them. But for super coolness at the top of the tree, you're hard pressed to beat the Range Rover, which has performed a style turnaround. Skoda, on the other hand, has not.
Those of us who read car magazines know how it's come on in leaps and bounds. But let's be honest, shall we? Jeremy now owns a Lamborghini Gallardo Spider Cars can move up and down the Cool Wall depending on new insights and theories as well. For example the Toyota Prius was originally deemed "Seriously Uncool" in an early episode, however in the episode when the car was road tested by Jeremy Clarkson Series 5, Episode 7 during a Cool Wall update, Clarkson reasoned that if one is looking to attract liberal, environmentally aware types of girls, then the Prius is cool.
He did give a warning that at any moment she might wish to be swept away by "Clint Thrust" in a Ford Mustang. He has now applied this to 4x4s saying that they are all now uncool. Also the Mini Cooper was downgraded to Uncool. This was because too many estate agents own the Mini.
Another example was the Bentley Continental GT Clarkson said that if David Beckham brought one then it would move down the wall series 3 episode 3 Clarkson is also particularly fond of Alfa Romeo, once making the statement "You cannot be a true petrolhead until you've owned an Alfa???
As a result of this, a large number of the Alfas on the wall are grouped towards the "Cool" end. In , the Alfa Romeo Brera's time came to the cool wall, and all three of the presenters agreed that it was not only the best looking car that money could buy, but Jeremy went as far as saying "I only have to imagine this in black, in tan leather, and I'm nursing a semi".
The Jaguar XK is also deemed "Uncool" because of the game of golf, which influences the car's performance in Clarkson's view.
