Born to be Riled by Jeremy Clarkson is a sharp, witty collection of classic motoring and social commentary columns from one of Britain’s most outspoken journalists. First published in 1999, this humorous non-fiction title brings together some of Clarkson’s best-loved articles, in which he casts his sardonic gaze over everything from disastrous drivers to absurd celebrities and baffling modern trends.
Best known as the long-time host of Top Gear, Clarkson’s voice is unmistakably irreverent, opinionated, and unapologetically hilarious. In Born to be Riled, no one escapes his cutting wit — from clueless cable TV salesmen and incompetent politicians to misguided motorists and the occasional nation. As much a social critique as it is a motoring commentary, this book is a snapshot of late-90s Britain seen through Clarkson’s famously grumpy, yet entertaining, lens.
Perfect for readers who appreciate dark humour, social satire, and outspoken opinions, Born to be Riled remains a firm favourite for Jeremy Clarkson fans and anyone who loves a good, unfiltered laugh.
