American Made is the Way
I'm guessing, but you might be thinking about the other presenter of the Top Gear programme, Jeremy Clarkson. He often criticises American cars (but just as often praises them too).

The presenter in this Veyron video is James May, who has a much gentler presenting style. On the show his nickname is 'Captain Slow' IIRC. I've never heard him criticise American cars.
