What was the controversy?

Gru

The number plates on some of the cars were allegedly interpretted to have made reference back to the conflict in the falklands, apparently the locals were unimpressed and allegedly the top gear lads were chased out of argentina. Cant provide a link right now but a quick google should tell you all about it.

Don't buy the excuse on the number plates, they knew full well what they were doing to get a comedy rise (did the same in Hicksville USA with the murals on their cars) everything is repeated on this show......they got caught with their pants down end of

if indeed f whatever happened (have yet to see) wasn't staged for publicity, highly likely

Its their job to be offensive morons. Its what their fans love them for.

Clarkson is such a pathetic weasel to try and pretend the number plate wasn't an attempt to antagonise the argentinians. Shame they didn't get them in the end but at least clarkson will think twice about doing something similiar in future.

Looked at setup to me....an angry Argentinian mob pelting eggs, sure
