Rubbish James May statue looks more like Margaret Thatcher

Various body parts of former Top Gear chums Jeremy Clarkson, Richard Hammond and James may have been trundling around London on the back of lorries today.

The Clarkson statue is pretty good, we’d say – he’ll certainly be pleased with it – but the one of May is rather less flattering. Some people on Twitter said it looked more like Margaret Thatcher.

@dajm @kunalpopat5 @thegrandtour @JeremyClarkson Is that James May? Thought it was Maggie Thatcher. — Shaun Levett (@shaunlevett) January 25, 2017

Maybe we’re doing the statue a disservice and it’s actually very true to life.

And is it just me or is James May looking more and more like The late Margaret Thatcher

And as for Hammond, well, if he looks like anyone at all it’s actor Willem Defoe. Maybe.

See?

So anyway, we went looking for alternatives for the Top Gear trio.

Here’s James May.
