Did Jeremy Clarkson do this to a BMW M5 E28



"You might not know Before he became a star, Jeremy Clarkson helped a friend with a tow start on an original M5. They carefully removed the bodywork plate, attached a tow rope and Clarkson set off around Fulham at a rate of knots.
Instead of starting, the BMW slowed to a halt while Clarkson disappeared down the road with a load of components jangling on the end of the tow rope. It turns out they'd attached the rope to the oil cooler and pulled it straight through the front of the car."
