Jeremy Clarkson has opened up about a major U-turn decision on Clarkson’s Farm.
The former Top Gear host recently sold the new Lamborghini tractor he bought for his farm – just weeks after he was seen agonising over the decision to buy it.
Just last month, an episode of Clarkson’s Farm showed him trying out loads of new tractors – much to the dismay of her partner Lisa Hogan.
He said making a decision on a new one was “filling me with absolute dread” – before settling on a colossal £85,000 green Lamborghini tractor, boasting a 7.8-litre engine and 340 horsepower, leaving Kaleb Cooper gobsmacked.

But he was spotted on June 9 at a farm machinery and tractor sale, in Sutton, near Ely in Cambridgeshire, selling the new green mega vehicle.
Onlookers said he told fans he was selling the new tractor due to a host of electrical problems and bringing his cherished old Lamborghini tractor back out of retirement.
An engineer was at the auction and saw Clarkson and side-kick Kaleb with a film crew – and the flash tractor.
The 65-year-old has since spoken about the decision after being quizzed by puzzled a fan on social media.
An X user said: “Jeremy Clarkson, you had to let the beast go? No way?! Dude, what happened?”
Mr Clarkson replied: “I’m starting to understand that when it comes to farming, you have to be sensible.
“Took a big financial hit on that tractor as well.”
