  1. James gets beer, immediately turns into a seagull from Finding Nemo: “Mine.”

  2. Comments section went from: old cars are cool, but impractical (maybe) to “DON’T SIT ON THE JAG!” (Try hearing it in Hammond’s voice).

  3. V8 powered spud gun, “POWER!!!”

  4. MJBull515 much more so when his next words are, ‘where’s my hammer?”

  5. Sam Shroom May would look at the “workshop” and either have a stroke, or immediately kick Hammond out and spend the rest of the day reorganizing it.

  6. Dealer: “Did I mention that the tank is a tank?” Peter: “Sold.”

  9. yankidiot hydrogen fuel cells need oxygen from the air to work. The fuel cell mixes the hydrogen and the oxygen and pulls an electron from the reaction... the ‘exhaust’ is water (H20).

  13. Hammond in Mexico... they’ve likely forgotten about that whole thing by now right?

  14. Hydrogen is not cheap to make... though they are working on that... Meanwhile the supercharger relies on solar power and battery storage.

  15. zig zak May has a better laugh.

  16. That’s where Star Trek got it wrong, Dr. Zefram Cochrane shouldn’t have been an American in Montana, he should have been a Brit in a shed. “So I said to me self, why not build a spaceship in my shed...”

  17. Yes, too many people just can’t agree to disagree these days.

  18. More like the INTERNET did that!

  20. Petrol has a shelf-life, if there was any in the tank it’s probably gone sour.

  23. The Sandero could start a conversation and get you friends, if they are also Top Gear/James May fans. “It’s the Dacia Sandero!”

  24. Once battery charging tech is at the point that you can recharge the car in 5 minutes, or quickly put a fresh battery in (like a cordless power tool), and it’s priced cheaper than a petrol/gasoline powered car, people will switch. Especially once they find out that with less moving parts, there’s less need to bring it in for repairs only to have the mechanic try to rip you off, “oh, you broke the... umm... Clarkson strut... I’ll need to replace that... I can’t legally allow you back out on the road without a new one.”

  25. If possible, I’d like to see a Grand Tour trip in Bulgaria, it’s actually a lovely country, and it has a lot of different driving experiences and terrain (from mountains to a small patch of desert (which is a protected natural area, so no shenanigans.)

  26. “How much more black can it be? The answer is.. none... none more black.”

  27. Putting a LeMans motor in an X5 with only rear drive, no traction control and no flappy paddle gearbox sounds like something Clarkson would come up with.

  28. 1998, first year in college... joined the radio station... so much new and better music came into my life.

  29. That poor bike... If he ever finishes it, that would be a sign of the apocalypse!

  30. Jim Clark raced so much because he HAD to... he wasn’t making millions per season with F1 like the drivers do now.

  31. How did they even manage to wedge Clarkson into an F-15?

  32. Jonathan Borley He’d break it immediately and blame Ford.

  33. In the US it’s LoJack, and it even has the ability to shut off the motor... though they usually hold off on doing that until the police have eyes on the car, so it can be done safely.

  34. Pretty sure it did not help that the kid’s Lambo was bright yellow.

  35. Electricity is available anywhere... hydrogen not so much... well if you build the car with a ram scoop and send it into space...

  36. It’s too bad no one has come up with a quick change battery tray for an electric car. You pull into a garage, out comes your depleted battery, in goes a freshly charged one and you’re on your way again in maybe 10 minutes (just enough time to get a coffee, or use the restroom.) Of course the garage would need to have a supercharger for all the trays and they’d need to know how many to keep around so they don’t have a car come in, only to be told, “We just ran out.”

  37. The entirety of Ferrari had a heart attack when you revealed a Tesla under one of their car covers!

  39. What about Simone Giertz’s (pronounced yeerts) Truckla, her Tesla Model 3 she cut up into a pickup truck because she didn’t want to wait for the Cybertruck?

  40. tw06le1 May stares at an empty shelf, “Where’s that gone?” And I go Hamster hunting, “HAMMOND!’

  41. Red seats work better with that paint color, but who forgot to spec out a roll bar for Hamster?

  42. Hammond has a Motorcycle Repair shop... only one customer so far... hasn’t gone well.

  43. All the jokes in the comments about boys coming to pick the daughter up in bad cars, but if one shows up in a Mustang Hammond will immediately grant him full permission to marry his daughter!
