He did

His known passion for single- or two-passenger high-velocity transport led to his brief acquisition of an English Electric Lightning F.1A jet fighter, which was installed in the front garden of his country home. The Lightning was subsequently removed on the orders of the local council, which "wouldn't believe my claim that it was a leaf blower", according to Clarkson on a Tiscali Motoring webchat. In fact, the whole affair was a setup for the programme Speed, and English Electric Lightning XM172 is now back serving as gate guardian at Booker airfield, High Wycombe.[28]

I've been searching the internet since I saw this and I still haven't found anyone who sells fishing line strong enough to hang it from my bedroom ceiling!

I was going to bid on this last year, but my g/f wouldn't let me. I thought it was the ideal tool to keep the neighbourhood kids in line
