What's wrong with this photo?
Jeremy Clarkson just posted this during filming - just looks so wrong to me...

Nothing, it's just the camera angle, the muzzle looks like it's connected to the camera car,

We are assuming the Challenger driver doesn't treat the D4 as an obstacle.

They always used to use black FFRR's as camera cars on Top Gear - being black, they don't reflect in the star car's paintwork and being the shape and size they are (with fold down tailgates - to the dunces at LR Design, take note!), they tend to make great mobile camera platforms 2011 - 2015: 3 x FL2
2015 - 2017: 2 x D4
2017 to date: FFRR SDV8
2023 to date: 2 x FL2 as โsecondโ cars ๐
2021 to date: Hinckley built โ14 Triumph Trophy 1200
2022 to date: Hinckley built โ14 Triumph Trophy 1200 & sidecar!

There's no muzzle cover fitted or boresight visible. Looks good to go to me.

Nearly every programme made by the outgoing TG team uses Discovery 4 as camera cars. I recall James May in Japan..... where they got one stuck, not in mud but trying to negotiate a tight corner in a part of a city.....
The new TG team were in Ireland just recently and also had Discovery 4 and FFRR camera cars....2016 Discovery 4 Commercial
2019 Discovery 5 HSE
