I remember Clarkson telling a story of his own personal GTV6 dropping the gear lever rod on top of the prop-shaft which locked up the rear wheels and if I’m not mistaken, I think the same thing happened here 😂
@@De19thKingJulion kind of. Many high performance Alfas will have the gearbox at the rear of the car to balance the weight, rather than directly behind the engine in the middle.
@@user-ui5mp8kl1p I know someone who rode a bike at sixty for the first time in twenty years. Picked the right gear and got thirty miles before his first complaint. He's also had a hip replacement, mind you. He goes on century rides every week now.
I nearly got an alfetta as my first car, there was a guy on craigslist that had six of them in his garage. but then hurricane harvey hit the gulf and drowned all of the good project cars on the market
"the whole cars vibrating!" Meanwhile his shirt is completely static, and you barely hear any vibration, the vibration you do hear sounds like its coming from a window. Yes this show is fake i know, but come on, they couldve made it alittle more realistic
If I had to guess it was a CV joint, expensive fix, and totally fucks up the car. Usually when one breaks it's after a hard turn and makes the whole car vibrate at the slightest touch.
So it goes, we have found another tow truck driver who doesn’t give you a ride when your car needs a ride. Yeah I have had to walk home after a tow before. Thankfully it was just across town.
The plastic drums on the tyres idea was stolen from a drift company in Scotland. They had plans to video with Top Gear and a day off drifting on ‘plastic tyres’. Instead they patched the planned recording and taken the idea and done it themselves. The Scottish company taken to social media to complain about how they had been used and fibbed off when this happened
@@joseplayer2144 I’m aware of that. I was just trying to explain the negotiations that were being had between 2 companies relating to this and what happened with it
I love James line: "Hey Richard "the Hamster" Hammond!"
😂😂😂 and because of that i call my best friend “Hammond Harvey the Hamster”
Really...? 🙄
he's not even a real hamster.
that's his nickname because he's short like an hamster@@KamaKase
Like it's a UFC fighter's nickname or something 😂
Clarkson was not warm and dry
Yeah something tells he thaf he was not, but I can't quite put my finger on it.
And his destination was far ON A BICYCLE
Thanks Einstein. 🙄
You do get warm riding a bike
@@stepha5926idk i don't think he was tho
"HAMMOND YOU BLITHERING IDIOT!"
That never gets old 😂
You’ve totally ruined my car
One does not see Clarkson on a bicycle often
How many cylinders has it got?
@@ThBlueSalamander -1
@@sunsettrance7841 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
You like to see Clarkson on a 2-wheeler? Wacht their Vietnam Trip😂😂😂
There's a picture of him with a full head of hair riding the futuristic looking lotus track/time trial bike
Well Clarkson is surely gonna break Hammond in half...
roof of his car... :)
He’s already broken in half so maybe he’ll do it again
It's a philosophical issue, actually: is it possible to break the smallest object in the universe in half?
Later in this episode, he removed Hammond's car's roof, made Hammond drive over it, and did end up repairing his car😊
@@mipmipmipmipmip Nice
I can see Hamster's gravestone reading
Richard Hammond
A Blithering Idiot
I remember Clarkson telling a story of his own personal GTV6 dropping the gear lever rod on top of the prop-shaft which locked up the rear wheels and if I’m not mistaken, I think the same thing happened here 😂
I think the prop shaft just might be broken. Do these cars have the transaxle in the back with the engine at the front?
@@De19thKingJulion kind of. Many high performance Alfas will have the gearbox at the rear of the car to balance the weight, rather than directly behind the engine in the middle.
@@Shakes-Off-Fear I guess that propshaft from engine to transaxle would be quite small, light, highly stressed & expensive to replace!
An unreliable Alfa ? Really!
This is the same car. He bought that Alfa from the company for his personal collection.
Never seen that before.
Blindingly BRILLIANT!!!
SERIOUSLY, RUB IT IN
*cuts to Jezza rubbing chamois cream on his testes*
Well there's an image I can never unsee... 😂
Mf what
Ppl in the Camera Car are loving it
Hammond you sodding tic tac
This was my Lamborghini.
Fun fact, it took five associate producers an hour to pull him off the bike because the seat was jammed up his tushy.
Shove it
So that's what he meant by "Rub it in!"
'Some say, there are still bits of seat firmly lodged betwixt his bum flaps, To. This. Day.'
@@jonstokes7588All we know is, he's called The Stuck
BBC made the worse mistake letting these guys go
And Jeremy made the best decision of his life by slapping the producer haha
Anyone remember that photograph of Jeremy on his bicycle?
That wasn't his bike. He doesn't have stabilizers.
@@Jtmissile But otherwise it was pretty accurate.
Oh my god him in shorts! I got it stuck in my head. Ahh get it out!
İt wasn’t him, he didn’t have stabilizers, that was another bike
Perhaps that was me
About time Clarkson ended up on the receiving end.
“One must imagine Clarkson on a bicycle happy”
Such a great show. These 3 really were the best. Such a shame the show was canceled.
haha one of those shows u can watch over and over and still find funny as 😂😂
Jeremy you broke the drive shaft and half I'm surprised it's not whacking up against the floor every time you hit the accelerator
Geez, Hammond...! 🤣🤣🤣
"Still, could be worse"
That Alfa is lovely 😍😍
"Rub e in!!"
Hammond? Ruin a car? Never!😂
Clarkson finally on a vehicle most suited to his abilities
Really a love of my life..... the Alfetta GTV.
Ooh what a beautiful Alfa ❤
What happened in the end? Did he break the diff?
What episode is this from
I totally miss watching these guys on Top Gear UK
The Alfetta is my dream car 😍😍
I love that after this Clarkson hid Hammond's roof under his tire so when he drove away it got crushed
We were warm and dry.
Well... two of us were
This is a real treat Jeremy dedicated to getting fit and losing that pot belly of his
Another producer is getting a good slapping
Clarkson got in the camera car the instant the shot was over.
Anyone know what episode this is?
Wtf did they even break for that result ?
sounds like the drive shaft blew
Hammond!
But Clarkson's revenge on Hammond was even more brutal than this bike ride.
I wouldn't call that bike ride brutal by ant stretch, tbf.
@@yrknutzreek At his age and in this weather, it's a bit difficult. Then Hammond wouldn't let him in after the bike ride into the house.
@@user-ui5mp8kl1p I know someone who rode a bike at sixty for the first time in twenty years. Picked the right gear and got thirty miles before his first complaint. He's also had a hip replacement, mind you. He goes on century rides every week now.

Things are getting POTTER 🤫
Would that be the rare differential breaking sound ?
What car is that exactly
Is it AWD transfer case ????
Get some rain pants Jeremy
Rusting as it goes
Dinkelberg!!!!
Clarkson became his worst enemy. A cyclist
What season and episode was this?
Гранд тур 3 сезон 7 серия
Is that season 7 episode 3
Look description
What did he break his transmission ?
Come on, clarkson, that's an easy ride. Get over it.
Its an Alfa so its doing that cos its Tuesday.
"the whole cars vibrating!" Meanwhile his shirt is completely static, and you barely hear any vibration, the vibration you do hear sounds like its coming from a window. Yes this show is fake i know, but come on, they couldve made it alittle more realistic
The fact that Clarkson hate cyclists make this about this much better
How can you snap a driveshaft when your rear wheels got 0 grip? :D
Why didn't he go in the breakdown truck???
“The car is vibrating”
No its breathing heavily because someone messed with it and its not feeling good.
What broke?
If I had to guess it was a CV joint, expensive fix, and totally fucks up the car. Usually when one breaks it's after a hard turn and makes the whole car vibrate at the slightest touch.
Let him rub it in. Whilst he's doing that he can't rub one out. That's an after work activity
Should I ask the tow truck for a ride?
1 or multiple of the 3 drive shaft donuts let go.
What actually happened?
Brocken drive shaft
ITALIAN CAR!!!!!!!😮😮😮😮😮
oh no ....... anyway ... !
Что за музыка играет?
What a music playing?
As if Clarkson went more than 800m (1/2 mile) on the bike...
At least his hair and clothes kept dry.
So it goes, we have found another tow truck driver who doesn’t give you a ride when your car needs a ride.
Yeah I have had to walk home after a tow before. Thankfully it was just across town.
what episode is this
I too would like to know
It's The Grand Tour S3E7
@MiCHu221 You sir are a legend and a scholar
@@michu2217 big thanks
Hammond and James was bad, making Clarkson run in a bike during rain, even having 2 cars for give a ride.
Did they ever say what was the actual problem?
Yes, it was an Alfa.
@@raygunn1083 I was trying to come up with a witty response but the dead alfa in my driveway kept reminding me you are right XD
Alfa romeo unreliability as standard
I predict murders
Hiçbir şey anlamadım ama komikti
Clarkson is not van suiker
Agli inglesi dovrebbe essere vietato giudare AlfaRomeo....
Visto che si pensano che loro fanno buone e ottime auto 😂😂😂😂😂😂
This show was fun until I found out it's all staged
So you was basically a WWE fan, very naive haha
@@FriendlyHomie not at all but a show that already got the script ready for a car they have never seen is not a show I would watch
rubbing it in is what its all about
Typical GTV crappyness
How would YOU feel if someone calls your own car "crap" in front of you face?
What happened to the car? Mine does that too :0
If you have a weapon you don't understand, you shouldn't own a weapon at all
Is this funny bc it’s not

Putting pvc pipe on tires to drift isn’t some revolutionary discovery lol
@@joseplayer2144 I’m aware of that. I was just trying to explain the negotiations that were being had between 2 companies relating to this and what happened with it
I don't like their scripted jokes that try to appear natural. I'm not dumb.
Only real Alfisti they know what means driving an Alfa
That Alfa is a gorgeous car. But reliability...hmm
Most fake TV program.
