Default The Grand Tour - Jaaaaaaaags

Hey guys,

the newest episode of The Grand Tour features ONLY Jags... Worth watching!

XJR, XK8, 420G , XJ6 and the star of this show, an XJ-S V12

Really liked it for a change. Very funny as well...

Yes, very funny, but painfully familiar.

Pretty amazing the run down the ski slope.

That sounds awesome but I'm a little disappointed because I thought the Jags seen in the trailer would be over the course of the whole season. About to tune in!

That was a well done episode. I enjoyed it and there were a few classic lines and a few cliche jokes done well. Worth watching.

Absolutely. Though I expect it to be the season highlight. All episodes up to this one were boring.

Awesome episode, especially the '6 Wheel Drive' pulled by an XJS ;-)

Got a good laugh out of this:

MAN: Oh, it's a Brit and it's overheated.
RICHARD: No, no, it's fine.
MAN LAUGHS: Do you know why the English like warm beer? Because Lucas makes refrigerators, too!
RICHARD: Good, thank you so much!
MAN: Yeah, you bet!
RICHARD: Oh, this isn't helping our case.

It was fun but silly, which is pretty much what you could say about every Top Gear episode. Well, the "silly" part at least. However I can trust very little of what I see on those shows. Did XXX car break down or was it staged?

That 420G was an impressive beast, though. Don't know if I'd want one (or a Mark X), but it had presence. Even with those dreadful US-spec small headlights.

Stig was the best part of it.
