What's your worst car breakdown story? 🤔
Breaking down while on the way to a wedding! 💀

Exodus 15:11 Who is like unto thee, O LORD, among the gods? who is like thee, glorious in holiness, fearful in praises, doing wonders?/Inspiration+God alone is holy, awesome, and able to do wonders. Yet, we tend to idolize others. While we might not worship gods like those in the Old Testament, we still idolize those who are unworthy of our attention. For instance, have you ever worshipped a celebrity, a leader, or a friend? The only one deserving of our worship is God! He is holy - without sin and perfect in every way. He is fearful and awesome - he parted the Red Sea and sent the plagues. He works wonders - he created the heavens and the earth and performed countless miracles./Prayer+Dear God, forgive me for worshipping other gods and idolizing those who are not you. You alone are worthy of worship. I know that no one on earth compares to you. When I am falling into idol worship, may I be reminded of your holiness. Fill me with fear and wonder when I seek your face. Draw me into your word where I can read about your awe-inspiring nature. Thank you, O Lord, for all your creation and your miraculous ways. In Jesus' name, amen.
Driving back from holiday the Mrs drove right over a giant rake that was in the motorway. Pulled over to access the damage. My side was good, she said her side was fine. Others hit it too and were doing the same. Hopped in the car and as soon as we got going the car was lopsided. Her side wasn't fine. Both tyres were flat and the rims buckled
@@SeektheLordsface - No thank you.
@@AtheistOrphan why do you have blind faith that life began from nothing?
"It turned out a detached brake caliper had broken the wheel which had jammed the gear box and that cause the engine to explode"
Sounds like the Grand Tour version of "I know an old lady who swallowed a fly......"
As they say on "SMA" There's your problem lady".
If it wasn't a drive wheel, it wouldn't have even been as much of a problem, but seizing a drive wheel at full rpm.....
@@ShaggyRogers1 So, no shear bolts to protect the engine?
I'm just wondering, because I don't work with cars but tool machines and they have them.
It's a fairly common problem... for 'murican cars.
You do get how that happens though, right? The caliper went into a wheel spinning at high speeds and was flung into the gear box. 'murican gear boxes and rear axels are notoriously easy to penetrate. Anything bigger than a pebble and they're shot.
@@ShaggyRogers1 It wasn't a drive wheel, it was the front wheel. The thing is that if you lose a caliper at high speeds the wheel will fling it wherever and since 'murican gearboxes are made with cardboard and a prayer it would literally enter it if flung in that direction, which is exactly what happened.
James and Jeremy throwing rocks at each other 😆 It definitely wasn't always scripted.
Of course the things they do aren't scripted
@@ralcolfwolfcoon8207 most things are scripted.
Most of the bits are scripted but that seemed like pure rage and frustration 😂
@@borris3768 yes but some not. May's car crash in the cave on Scandi Flick is the scripted. I don't think so
@@wildannandawicaksana5004 that was fake. It was done by CGI
"I'm literally reinventing the wheel"
**wheel comes off**
"This us unstopable"
**literally stops**
Seeing Jeremy hit either May or Hammond is nothing surprising. But bumping into the camera car was a new one for me 🤣
I know and what's great is how annoyed they were with him, like it was so unexpected for them as well 😂
Had he not used the Camera Car as a brake, he could have been seriously injured in a accident or worse. He knew just what he was doing.
6:51 aww that's wholesome of Jeremy to think if Hammo has a jacket because it started to rain
scotthuiolm
at 3:57 the instant change of expression on his face was priceless 😂
yes! lol
Me when I’m told there’s no ice cream left
Mid-winter in negative 15 degree temps my timing belt broke a mile away from my house. Had to walk back just to use another vehicle so that I could get to work... Weeeee!
SELAH

Still... Could be worse
I believe there is a God. However I don't think God is like we imagine I think he possibly is a alien. After all we a gods to our pets. We make food appear, lights turn on and off ect. So why wouldn't it be safe to assume God is possibly a alien or another life for way more advanced that anyone or anything
@@niewissen9912 did we create our pets from nothing and sustain the lives of said pets?
Adonai is Holy, Holy, Holy, youve broken the 1at and 2nd commandments
@@aliasunknown6881 you could die in your sins without repenting and being judged in the lake of fire for all eternity
Hammond putting the handbreak on before getting out of the Ford to check on his completely wrecked front right track gets me everytime
I just realized what the Scandinavian special is gonna be called when it comes out
"A Scandi Flick", Referencing a technique used in ice rallying, and "flick" having a double meaning as a motion picture
ITS LITERALLY PERFECT
The last time the Scandinavian flick was performed Hammond rolled his van over…
@Gabriel Gabi 👏
Seems like you predicted the future, well done
Loving Richard he’s so upbeat he’s so happpy
like a Labrador lol
Exept when Clarkson place his carroof under his car 😂
I've never had a breakdown because I don't buy 45 year old cars and try to drive them from Portugal to Singapore.
I spent 3 grand in repairs in 2022 to fix my 2014 subaru. I spent 6.99 to In 2022 to fix my 98 chevy truck. Just because it's newer doesn't mean it's reliable.
@@jdub4626 spare sparts for chevis in USA should be plenty availible. Thats why Its cheap.
Same for Opel and VW in Germany.
Parts for Imports are much higher.
Also The subaru sure has a lot of electric Stuff you cant repair without a mechanic
@Riese79 my point was that my subaru broke down more than my Chevy did. I get domestic parts are cheaper. But 3 cv joints, 2 wheel bearings and transmission later for the Subaru vs cheap thermostat for the Chevy over a years time. That's my point.
@@jdub4626 like i said. More Technology in a modern car. Older cars were simpler. More reliable.
And a chevy was build for life i guess.
And Today you cant even open the Bonnet? And repair simple Things on the Motor without a mechanics. 1 Million Electronic Things.
First of all, you’re not fun and second any car any year can break.
It's a good thing that there was someone in the camera car to tell Jeremy that he'd just hit them. 🙄🤣🤣🤣
Yeah that was obnoxious
Honestly? I actually really liked the idea of Hammond's Pirate Tank having the four sets of treads instead of the wheels (and the high ground clearance/steel girders up front), and it was definitely a cool-looking machine. But the way the treads themselves were designed was inherently flawed; with nothing much to stop said treads from slipping, as well as them being made of rubber that just wasn't strong or reliable enough for the job. Refine it by adding some extra protective measures (rubber-padded steel treads instead of just rubber, side armour plates and more reliable idler assemblies/rollers/sprockets to keep the treads on), and I think you'd have something legitimately good!
Hammond: this thing is unstoppable.
Hammond's car: *stops*
3:57
1:03 "Pleeeeeease! Please work!" LOL!
That last clip.... The car realized who was driving it. Decided to cripple itself. Make itself undriveable. All to prevent being completely, violently, wrecked and totaled; down the road.😉
Do you know from which episode that clip was?
@@dirkhennings2835 loch down special
How thoughtful of the car to make sure the driver wouldn’t be getting airlifted with cut trousers by paramedics at the end
To be fair i take this approach at work all the time. Doesn’t matter the scenario,I try to work out how best I can help someone with their situation, before determining I can’t and just leaving them to it. Always works best I find.
Watching Hammond break my favorite car of all time was truly heartbreaking.
Which one?
If it's the Ford Focus RS, in hindsight, the treads were a failed idea because of the road conditions they were facing
If it's the Charger, that was entirely the builder's fault, as it seems he forgot to tighten the calipers when Hammond was driving it, which fell off and locked the driveline which then broke everything that drove the car.
I can’t wait for the next grand tour episode.
"It's a very thoughtful place for you to break down."
Why's that?
"See, there's a little path here for Hammond and I to go around..."
Love how hammond is his own demise, as soon as he says everything is fine then boom! breakdown
Everytime they use old cars one must break down 😭🤣🤣
and the driver be left behind as usual to repair😂😂😂
Worst breakdown: Car lost an alternator in the middle of nowhere, halfway between two towns, during a blizzard. ALMOST made it to the larger town, broke down a few miles out. Called a tow truck, almost froze to death waiting for them, it was 10 degrees F (-12 Celsius).
The only time I’ve ever broken down (knock on wood) my serpentine belt idler pulley came apart, like the plastic just disintegrated, while on my way to work, which meant I had no power steering, wasn’t charging the battery, and most importantly, wasn’t turning the water pump. I didn’t know I was overheating because…the temp gauge doesn’t work…but I knew something was wrong, so I pulled into a diner parking lot.
Fortunately, I was only five minutes down the road from work, so someone came and picked me up, and the dealership I work at has their own flatbed truck, so they went and got my pickup for me (for free) and brought it to the dealership for me so I could fix it. Drove it home later that day.
My car broke at the intersection blocking traffic. I sat there helpless, guys honking 🤯. Policeman appeared i froze coz i had no paperwork on me! Not only did he not check the paperwork he asked them to assist me push it aside 🤣
I broke the clutch and gearbox of a car during rush hour in the middle of Helsinki. We were on our way to the port to go to Estonia by boat and our trip was canceled due to that.
Hammond: annoyed with his tracked car dropping treads every 100 meters.
Me: "should have followed the main rule of tracked vehicles: metal tracks only"
Also the tracks don't have an anchor-hold, if you look.
The scripted parts are funny but the unscripted parts are even funnier 😂
I think you missed another breakdown from A Massive Hunt. After Richard replaced the tracks on his Ford Focus with normal wheels, he drove through uneven terrain in a low ground clearance. Later that night when going down an incline there was a loud thud, and soon the car was stuck and worse yet, the clutch broke so Richard abandoned his car unable to fix the clutch.
"Its gonna be brilliant this car"
Fucking track flies out of orbit
The same Mazerati a friend owned. Drove 4 3 weeks and spent 5 years at the mechanics costing 16k. He serviced it forgetting to put the new oil in and took off seizing the engine. It's now a chicken coup.
the monster truck starter going off in colombia will always be a favorite scene of mine XD
I think the biggest issue with the grand tour specials other than the overuse of scripted moments is that fact that most if the time they bought new modern cars for challenges other than budget cars
Every special whenever something breaks down their would be a Speical one.
MY DREAM EPISODE:
3 men each with $20,000 buy/ build/ modify Grand Tour Cars..
go on a grand tour of Europe and at the end, showcase them and the one with the highest appraisal wins..
kinda like "survival of the fattest" but in a competition format and following the shows namesake, making way through the gorgeous scenery of Europe..
perfect time for an upload to be in bed with a concussion, LOL!
cant wait for the next season..
Love this show.
What I’m missing here is a reference to each episode in the video description ;)
Other then that, awesome revisits ^^
Love it when hammond has a TPT...🤣🤣🤣🤣
7:22 How the hell does that even happen?
Hammond, May, Clarkson. That's how that happens
Someone didn't tighten down the brake caliper bolts
It could only happen to Hammond...
What episode is this part from?
@@iHughZ s4e3 it was probably scripted, since he only drove it for 5 minutes, but know knows.
7:15 It went BOOM
2:15 handbrake🤣
Anyone else notice Hammond always threw the same track every time?
I would say that the Rimac was a pretty serious breakdown.
When Hammond's engine explored I honestly thought he blew a gasket. Elijah Stevenson
Indeed, Mommy, Indeed.
Still... could be worse 🤣
Jeremy- "Even I, with my limited knowledge can see thats not right🤔"
"its totally legal by the way... On a French motorway"
Once my grandpa was driving to Melbourne he didn't watch his temp gauge and set his old range rover on fire the bonnet was covered in flame
Gearbox seal let go in a lorry I was driving,(not my usual lorry),took 2 hours for a daf aid van to get to me,another 2 hours for him to fix,to then find the gearbox wouldn't go into gear,another 2 hours for recovery,3 hours back to yard,started at 0600 in the morning,got home at 2200 that night after asking for an early finish as it was my birthday and I was going out for a meal with my family....I've never worked another birthday since.
I love these lads!
Hammond: I am reinventing the wheel...
Front right caterpillar: breaks apart
Hammond: oh...
imagine hearing from the workshop working on your car that the brakecaliper jammed the wheel up which in turn jammed the gearbox, which in turn annihilated the engine lol
Always wondered what exactly happened to the Maserati bi-turbo. Surprised at all that he chose one, given he dropped a skip bin on one in top gear
I have such a great appreciation for the grumpy old men!
Thank you.
What episode is that Richard drives the black charger from?
2:15 hammond puts the handbrake on like the wheel isnt absolutely buried in sand
Which episode is the last clip from 3 American cars camaro mustang and charger??
3:54 😂😂😂
My truck throttle got stuck one day hood thing I was in a standard I had to put it in gear break hard and jump out and I jam my throttle cable. Good times.
7:17 - The Douche of Hazzard.
Classic 😂😂😂😂
7:16 (the engine exploded) James May: OH! Hammond, do you mind not doing that? I've had a heart attack. Me: I have to agree with May, Hammond, I've nearly burst my safety valve.
Why was it always the front right tred?
Hammond's tank will go down in history
For being cool and awesome or for breaking down constantly? 😅
@@thegrandtour Both, just like German tigers.
@@thegrandtour history is written by the victor, so I'm afraid that doesn't bode well for him
I remember one time when I was driving home from work, my battery was in the process of dying. Radio went, headlights, steering wheel locked up. This was all at night lol. Scary as fuck
what episode is the second to last breakdown clip from?
I would’ve cried if that happened to my 70s charger
They should’ve shown d part at 5:19 when Jeremy’s stone bounces back from May’s Panda✌🏿😝🙌🏿
We're these of a post-covid new season, or a compilation of the first few seasons?
i'm surprised they how often they didn't decide to help each other out.
*by leaving.*
Damn lol Dodge been breaking down since they started even until today 😂 💯
When is the next special coming lads?
You're not the only one asking czcams.com/users/postUgkx5ZJ_CLtch8la4ZgY8vPAOBuwueVGBowB
6:57 I think we can all agree we hate all those people
What episode is there Dodge Charger from?
*oh now we’re in trouble*
2:16 when you hit a pot hole just right and it sounds expensive.
Edited because i had the wrong time stamp.
Clutch slave cylinder went out during Midwest winter. Not fun
Well, on not terrible disappointment on 3 colleagues, back to the tent.
this is such a british moment
Think, Jeremy, think.
-Omni Clarkson-
The worst thing at the wrong time the wrong place any vehicle could do is break down an no help
Funny thing is, with this trio, if you just said 'worst breakdowns', you can't guaranteeeee its about cars
Wish you guys could upload the top gear videos as well but I understand you can't
That Charger made me cry... I hope it was repairable.
Any idea what episode it was?
@@armandbronkhorst5042 No, I'd have to check myself.
When I had bought a new car and I drove it home the gearbox broke down
nice
Whats the Season and episode from of thr last clip from 6:53
Lochdown I think
2:15
>puts the handbrake on
I don't think that's necessary, Richard
He had to do it. It's the bloody law. I don't have a driver's license yet myself, but if I have lost a wheel, I would still put the handbrake on just in case.
The rock throwings could have actually been very lethal. My heart skipped a beat when they did that.
are we suspecting a new season this year ?
Why is Richard's Rs wheel Always Coming off
It's probably a good thing you guys don't come to America a bunch. People have too much road rage here, I don't see it going good if you block traffic. It would be like Alabama all over again.
But then.... 😂😂😂
Haha 😂
so good you specifically mentioned car breakdowns vs presenter...🇺🇸
Caution caution not be your chance
grand tour, you can't make a mashup using only 2 episodes. it's a bit mailing it in.
