It just doesn't get any better than this, I just love everything about this classic show damn good editing, musics, script cheerfulness, idiotism etc. The expression, depth and meaning to how well this show used to be composed was very good.
23:44 This always annoyed me that they used a wheel dyno when every manufacturer rates their cars at the flywheel. Assuming the standard 15% drivetrain loss, 447 at the wheels is 514 at the flywheel.
Hammond doesn't know the difference between gross HP and Net. That Mustang was tested by the SAE with just the engine in 1968, no accessories or exhaust. Now he's putting it on a dyno and expecting the same.
There is no other tv car show that is crazy stupid exciting as this I am watching this on my birthday Nov 2024 and I deal like I am at the theater u just don’t know what they r up to next dam I have to watch the grand tour next
about the stream of yesterday: it was 4h long, but it was 4x all the clips. wouldnt it be better, just stream all clips once and then stream ending? I feeled a little scammed about the stream title "4h of american motoring madness"
44:41 Never say never... Constellation (The cancelled moon program James is talking about), simply became Artemis, and it's likely they will land astronauts with an updated version of that new moon buggy back on the moon by the end of the 2020s.
I'd love to be able to know where in Southeast Michigan did Jeremy drive the Ford GT. The State of Michigan should, especially now, put out a heritage route.
@@lordracer7743 Yes I guess that's the car I saw. It is still a Ford and with the Mustang badge. Why would anyone want one? Still, I'll never touch any electric vehicle for many reasons.
@@lordracer7743It has the iconic Mustang logo on it... It's most definitely a Mustang. The front grill... The taillights.... Mustang. Mach.... Also a Mustang.
didn't it take him forever to receive it, then he had to install an aftermarket alarm system that malfunctioned all the time that rendered the car undriveable
@@redfox_84yeah it was nothing to do with Ford making an unreliable car, the alarm system the dealership installed due to Clarkson’s insurance. Basically it screwed with the cars electronics and it never worked properly.
They could have researched this a bit more. There's new edges out there that are impressive still today. All Cobra models and the GTs with simple mods can still impress you. Not to mention the Cobra R, Mach 1 and Terminator models. I own a 23 yr old modular 4.6 and that thing still do donuts around most cars of today. Can be fixed with simple tools at home and maintenance is simple.
Clarkson and his love/hate for America. Always lying in these videos. If you didn't realize he was a massive liar you'd think his numbers were real. The Ford GT90 was a prototype, not a production car, didn't do 40mph, it did 253 mph, 0-60 mph in 3.1 seconds with 720 hp V12.
When he drove it the turbo wastegates were jammed open and it was indeed speed limited. Only Ford knows if those quoted figures are true or not. And a wheel fell off. But they decided not to show that.
@@Gordanovich02 And that changes nothing about Clarkson being a dopey liar. I doubt a wheel fell off. Who told you that Clarkson? He had nothing but praise for it then.

I've got an 09 crown victoria interceptor with the 4.6 in it. Straight piped it and now I have essentially a four door mustang. Love the car.
I guess you watch Cleetus too😎
Hammond is such a secret American.
Does he have a sister?
@@carlbirtles4518 I think so.
@@ajitgopalakrishnan8051
I only asked because Jeremy always made jokes about American men engaging in incest with their sisters.
Yeah an open secret
@@ajitgopalakrishnan8051
Jeremy always made comments about Americans engaging in incest.
I miss the show. It sucks getting old. ☮️
All things have to end. Be happy you were there to enjoy it.
be grateful these guys shared so much of their life with us and despite growing old they are still with us and fighting the good fight!
Any hideous , impractical upgrades Ford want to do to vehicles is fine by me ,keep up the good work 👍😂
James says he's sad the moon buggy is still up there collecting moon dust,but on the bright side it never rains up there so it won't rust😅
Richard there old Camaro might be slow but with a bit of work it can be made to go much quicker which would be easier than making certain things increase vertically
That salt flat run was some of the most insane TV as a kid :D

The Ford GT was a BARGAIN when it came out hot damn.
4mpg that’s wild 😂
It’s not quite accurate but it plays well on tv.
That was aired before they bumped the price up $50,000
Car lazer tag looks like something off of the crew video games...so dope.
23:44 This always annoyed me that they used a wheel dyno when every manufacturer rates their cars at the flywheel. Assuming the standard 15% drivetrain loss, 447 at the wheels is 514 at the flywheel.
Yupp thats what i thought
And the 1968 Mustang was SAE tested with just the engine with no accessories or exhaust with gross HP.
Actually impressive that Jeremy set a class record and then increased it by 10mph in a day
this brings back memories and tears! the trio legend.
Brought back some dear memories. Well done and many thanks.
Again blast from the past ❤ lovely
2:59 the fact I recognise that place makes me giddy.
And it still looks just as run down today.
Anyone wondering, it's Caenby corner transport cafe on Google maps, think it's changed since idk.
i LOVE OLD TOP GEAR!!!!
Jeremy with the Ford GT does look like he is about to cry!

Him personally? He probably would but BBC wouldn't appreciate the technicalities, the presenters are happy to present fiction regardless

BBC Top Gear Forever! ❤️🥹
NICE VIDEO 👍
I saw a new Mustang today. It looked just like any other average electric SUV.
"An insufferable oaf" is just a peak insult.
Did Jeremy Clarkson forget about the C4 corvette? Lol
about the stream of yesterday: it was 4h long, but it was 4x all the clips. wouldnt it be better, just stream all clips once and then stream ending? I feeled a little scammed about the stream title "4h of american motoring madness"
It was on repeat, so you didn't get scammed.
@@clubvillain Then call it click bait.
Still stupid!
@@clubvillain but why repeat? i dont want to watch all stuff four times in a row.
44:41 Never say never... Constellation (The cancelled moon program James is talking about), simply became Artemis, and it's likely they will land astronauts with an updated version of that new moon buggy back on the moon by the end of the 2020s.
nicee
I always thought this Mustang was pretty hideous. Gopping. Looks like if you asked a toddler to make a car.
I'm not sure how Hammond could call it good looking. It's a very unattractive car
"Morrrnin"
I'd love to be able to know where in Southeast Michigan did Jeremy drive the Ford GT.
The State of Michigan should, especially now, put out a heritage route.
Hammond is not British, he’s an American with a British accent and lives at Birmingham…
To be fair, Birmingham would be a posh and svelte American city.
Does he have a sister?
I saw the most illogical car ever recently....in Worthing , West Sussex of all places. An Electric Mustang!!!!! I know!
the mach-e has nothing to do with a mustang.
@@lordracer7743 Yes I guess that's the car I saw. It is still a Ford and with the Mustang badge. Why would anyone want one? Still, I'll never touch any electric vehicle for many reasons.
That’s like making a tank that only shoots rubber bands, or shoes with holes in them.
🤢 THOSE BLOODY THINGS ARE AN ABOMINATION!! YOU'D HAVE TO BE A BLITHERING IDIOT TO PURCHASE SUCH A STUPID CAR! 🤢 I apologize for yelling...

I had no idea there are Holden Statesman hearses in Britain.
Did you see the AU Fairlane
3:33
BOLLOCKS! That was a Ford not a Holden. Sorry lads, my bad.

What does a bad guy from a Clint Eastwood movie has to do with it?
I'm glad my dad bought this rather than the 360

i thought Clarkson always hated the Ford GT, no?
He loved it and had one. It was just always broken.
didn't it take him forever to receive it, then he had to install an aftermarket alarm system that malfunctioned all the time that rendered the car undriveable

"Houston,, we're full of crap"
4h live about 60mins yt clips😆
The mustang is over

Some Pinto Pony Sport is a 1979 Mustang/
Those planes are amongst the most useless and costly things used in this world. A plane like that has no real purpose other than government pleasure.
