Jeremy Clarkson flogs his giant £85k Lamborghini tractor just weeks after buying it – and tells fans why it had to go

JEREMY Clarkson has sold his giant new £85,000 Lamborghini tractor — just months after buying it for his Diddly Squat Farm.

The ex-Top Gear host, 65, offloaded the 7.8-litre engine green machine at an auction.

He told others it had been dogged by numerous electrical problems.

Jeremy was seen testing tractors last month on an epsode of Amazon Prime’s Clarkson’s Farm.

Farm manager Kaleb Cooper, 26, was gobsmacked at the size of the Lambo he chose.

An engineer who saw Jeremy, Kaleb and a film crew at Monday’s sale in Sutton, near Ely, Cambs, said: “He was right next to his huge tractor.

“It was great to see him. I’m a fan.

“I watched every Top Gear with my dad and watch the Clarkson’s Farm with my son.”

It is not clear whether Jeremy will now go back to his cherished £40,000 Lamborghini Trattori R8 270 DCR tractor.

When asked for comment, auctioneers Cheffins remained tight-lipped.

But they posted a video on Instagram of the tractors up for auction yesterday (9) – including a green Lambo.

One poster wrote: “Is that Clarksons Lamborghini?” and a dozen people responded with a ‘thumbs up’.
