the cogs insta pretty much confirmed they're working on them both ,, as for jc's alpha he seems to have gone eslewhere to have it fixed up ( it was at his pub live screening of the final tgt ep unless it was a stand in car they found).
@@Moto_ No but Izzy and Mike have a great on screen chemistry together and Izzy can naturally present very well! So just a question if you have Ben Collins or Marcus as the 3rd person. It would feel like a natural progression from the original trio if Amazon wanted to continue with The Grand Tour.
James Bond begs to differ. While tricky, it is possible - Though each generation seems to think their actor did 007 best. So, while possible, it is doubtful that we will ever acknowledge it.
Asking who could replace the legendary 3 is like setting up the love of your life with someone else. But, I think Chris Harris deserves a platform. Apart from being known, he meets the criteria Jeremy proposed to Amazon.
Amazing to see the Capri was saved and what a car! brought a Capri towards the start of the year myself at the Classic Car and Restoration Show in Birmingham (1987 MK3 2.8 Injection) and while I've had my ups and down with it (no thanks to the auction company and the previous owners) overall it's been an awesome car to take to shows and car meets throughout the year.
I think the Stag was the best car out of the bunch. It looks awesome, had close to 0 problems and honestly seemed amazing to drive. Capri had lots of issues, but it looked and sounded amazing. I will miss the showcasing of older classic cars that the trio did during their specials - it has always been something akin to a time machine, to a better time, with better looking cars (imho).
I remember my Grandad who was a Vicar had a 2.0L Laser model back in the early 80s, when we visited them in Rhos-On-Sea on holidays he used to pay me and my younger brother to rust seal the entire underbody of it. That car never rusted, was so well looked after by him and Im sure the thick layer underneath helped. I've still yet to watch the final episode, it's heart wrenching not seeing the trio together on my screen anymore after all these years.
"Let's call them Boomers". Brilliant! Love the personalities and entertainment value of Drive Tribe! The love of cars is always there, it is the personalities that present them that keeps us wanting to watch whatever you upload! Thank you for being you and doing this for us!❤
The issue with the BBC was that they handled the farce wrongly. And didn't allow Clarkson ,may and Hammond one last chance to end the show their own way. And tried to use the same formula and tried to replace the trio immediately. Amazon has the support and blessings of whilham and the trio and allied them to end the show their way. Clarkson also advised them not to look at famous host but funny car people.
Exactly. While there is no replacing the trio, the BBC got flack not so much for trying to continue Top Gear/replace them, but for firing Clarkson (and thus the trio), and ending it hard that way. The Grand Tour ended completely naturally, and amicably. Still, it's unlikely they will find a group that will make people interested given the shoes to fill. Especially if they try and go woke first with it.
I love how Richard saves so many of his show cars. I would be the exact same way, you become so connected to these cars on their journeys and giving them up would be so difficult.
And then drivetribe squeezes them up to create some content, to have Mike ramble about something. Personally I think better fit would be Hammond, to talk about his grand tour cars instead this bloke.
I really hope the mercedes and Lancia from the first special are saved as well. Would be great to have that process documented. Would be quite a challenge!
Amazon should leave the grand tour well alone. It was absolutely brilliant to watch, I would be disappointed bitterly if Amazon tried to resurrected it with three new presenters. Amazon leave it alone!
I think they should've used the Drivetribe channel to find new presenters, they'd be able to see how the audience reacted to the new presenters before putting them on the Grand Tour
well that was the point in drivetribe in the first place as jc / rh /jm original plan but then it just became a cheap facebook knock off with out the millions of moneys to fund it or implement the features so they closed it down and turned to youtube, this is why mike is front and center.
Im open for a new Grand Tour with new presenters. The guys gave us their final show together and said their goodbyes. I hope they choose the right presenters.
PLEEEEEAZE find a way to help the Yanks view The Smallest Cog! None of the streaming services offer it, which puzzles me. We NEED The Smallest Cog in our lives to fill that TG/ GT void.
Problem with replacing the trio is that people are not patient enough for new people to find their groove. They've been working together forever so the dynamic is there. A new trio (or other constellation) would have to actually build chemistry and a favourable dynamic over time. Question is if Amazon can make the show successful enough in the meantime.
I think you should be involved in the next iteration of The Grand Tour...seems like a natural thing to do with your association to May and Hammond on DriveTribe.
Gen x here and a 3.0l GXL was my first decent car , learned how to drive a rwd in it . I’ve been looking at them for about a year now to perhaps get another
Still not a GT though. One for the Road was amazing. Can't believe it is over. I've watched this show from when episode 1 aired, which is more than half as long as I've been alive for. The flashbacks they showed at the end of the episode made me feel really, really old.
Amazon , dont do it , it didnt work with Top Gear and it wont work with the Grand Tour , it was the chemistry between the three of them that made the programme, thank them from the bottom of our hearts and let it rest.
With all due respect, without Richard, Jeramy and James, there is no Top Gear and there is no grand tour. It won’t matter who Amazon tries to get to continue the grand tour, it will never be the same.
out of all the cars saved, the only one that i feel should truly be left in its show state would be the last ever... and thats saying something as my dad had a capri and i have some really fond memories of it, taking one tracking would be an experance. on the subject of who should host the grand tour next, obviously the only real awnser is no one it should only ever be the lads but if it has to come back i hope its some youtube names that get pulled into it, ones with history and chemistry that dosent match or rival the og's but brings a new level for the new show
Who should be the next grand tour trio? My answer, no one.. much like we shouldn't get a Hotfuzz2 and we shouldn't have had the letdown Topgear reboot. Some things deserve to put to bed and immortalised in our minds
Taylor from AutoAlex, Al from 6d Diesels, and Will from Top Dead Centre would be my pick for GT2. Whomever it is, I'd like to see cameos from the original crue - they can take the role of task settings, adjudicators, or "wise (uH) men"
Mike and Izzy have already been shown to have great chemistry together as a duo. So just a question of whether it’s Ben Collins or Marcus as the 3rd one. There’s potential there as they’ve all got chemistry on screen between them. Anybody else doesn’t work in my opinion this just feels like the perfect natural progression which wouldn’t be as jarring as what BBC butchered Top Gear with!
@@AKStovall It wouldn’t but they could change it up to suit their style. You could have race specials instead or road trips as opposed to just traveling across a country. By race specials, they each have a car of their choice and they have to get from x destination to x destination. And there’s still plenty parts of countries we haven’t seen. I’m sad the original trio never got to go on the Atlantic Ocean Road in Norway but that’s something they could do.
I heard Jeremy saying that Top Gear should be hosted by 3 young gear heads, so same is true of TGT. The likes of Mat Armstrong and Freddy would be a great start.
As a kid in California we had a lemon yellow 1972 Ford Capri. It was a four cylinder. Unfortunately my dad crashed the car on the very day I got my driver's license.
If you're going for a racing look, you needs to keep a historical route like fenders (obviously road legal size) and maybe a bit of gold, BBS Style Late 70's, early 80's wheels
My son for whatever reason has clung to this car, he is telling anyone that will listen his first car will be a Capri, which is goin to be hard to find in the US.
A 3.5L Turbo V6 from an F-150 would be a very cheap and reliable engine upgrade. We watched the Grand Tour for Jeremy, Richard. and James. Any other hosts would be like New Top Gear or Top Gear USA. I can see a new show coming from Lucy's tutelage under James, Izzy under Richard, and Kaleb... Just to see Kaleb leave the Cotswolds... but by no means would or could it be comparable to Andy Wilman and the Boys. It'll be its own thing.
I think if anyone would stand a chance on keeping the grand tour going would be autoalex and the boys they will never beat original cast but would keep people watching and still have the funny side of it and already have a known face on UA-cam
Noticed James's Staaag in the background as well, so that's been saved and we know Jezza has got his Monte Carlo
the cogs insta pretty much confirmed they're working on them both ,, as for jc's alpha he seems to have gone eslewhere to have it fixed up ( it was at his pub live screening of the final tgt ep unless it was a stand in car they found).
Just like top gear. You can't recreate the grand tour. It's not the show it's the guys. Richard James and Jeremy are legendary.
@@Moto_ No but Izzy and Mike have a great on screen chemistry together and Izzy can naturally present very well! So just a question if you have Ben Collins or Marcus as the 3rd person. It would feel like a natural progression from the original trio if Amazon wanted to continue with The Grand Tour.
Clarkson said in an interview that it should be 3 nobodies, just like they were in the beginning of top gear. And I tend to agree with him.
James Bond begs to differ. While tricky, it is possible - Though each generation seems to think their actor did 007 best. So, while possible, it is doubtful that we will ever acknowledge it.
100% @@SirFridge
Not just the chemistry. It's the humor and all of it
i hope oliver's not getting jealous 😂
He'll feel cheated on. Another yellow car that the others hate.
Give it back
he has a gf in red he's fine

They said it in the episode. It needs to be 3 basically nobodies that just have great chemistry.
Spill the beans Mike! We know it’s you, Izzy and either Maxwell or Ben Collins! 😜
What about Abby? 🤔
@@christophb2736 I haven’t seen enough of her to know how well she presents. Mike, Izzy, Ben or Marcus would be my go to if they were interested.
Ben, Matt, Tavarish
Chris Harris, Jensen button and Daniel Ricardo would make me watch it lol
chris won't be back on the beeb, he's burned the bridge telling the 'truth' on freds accident and calling the bbc out.
@@CaydeSmax I meant on the grand tour .... I wouldn't watch TG full stop .... It's on BBC - so that's a no for me lol 😆😆
There is never going to be another trio like this ever again❤😢
BLUE COLLAR HERO PLEASE RESTORE❤❤🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧
Nobody can replace them, the chemistry was real. We will miss you guys.
I really hope the mercedes and Lancia from the first special are saved as well. Would be great to have that process documented. Would be quite a challenge!
considering the state of them in the last episode? probs too expensive to do. unless it was sponsored / money pooled by the 3.
Possible showpieces to exhibit as they sit? @@CaydeSmax
WE WANT MORE! BRING BACK THE BOYS!
We don't really want wheel chair races in care homes.
@NOXStellans i would one hundred percent watch those three race wheelchairs in a care home!
Not sure it can or should be rebooted. But Chris Harris, Jason Camissa and Henry Catchpole. All three are amazing car journalists.
Same as my First 73 Capri , £650 Back in 1978,
Loved every second driving that

i wonder if they're waiting for the show to end or reach a certain amount of episodes beforee they sell it off.
@CaydeSmax maybe, up to season 2 though. Discovery+ was supposed to carry it in the US, but I'm sure carrier agreements got in the way. 🙁

I thought TG was beginning to find that before the crash.
I think you should be involved in the next iteration of The Grand Tour...seems like a natural thing to do with your association to May and Hammond on DriveTribe.
tbh he rich and maxwell are trying to do it already
Mike, Izzy Hammond and former Stig would be a great team for the next Grand Tour!
Mike and Ben for sure. Not sure about Izzy. She's cool and all but she doesn't know enough about cars
I reckon keep Chris Harris too, he carried it for the BBC re-brand.
You aren't serious, Ben absolutely, izzy maybe, Mike keep him away
Mat Watson from Carwow would make a fantastic Grand Tour host. He's very entertaining to watch!
Exactly!
You can't recreate this show with different presenters. The show IS those three! the magic was them!
Gen x here and a 3.0l GXL was my first decent car , learned how to drive a rwd in it . I’ve been looking at them for about a year now to perhaps get another
Still not a GT though.
One for the Road was amazing. Can't believe it is over. I've watched this show from when episode 1 aired, which is more than half as long as I've been alive for. The flashbacks they showed at the end of the episode made me feel really, really old.
should be restored like Oliver, 1st n last car should be mint
Amazon , dont do it , it didnt work with Top Gear and it wont work with the Grand Tour , it was the chemistry between the three of them that made the programme, thank them from the bottom of our hearts and let it rest.
No one can replace Clarkson, Hammond and May. They WERE new Top Gear and they WERE Grand Tour. Neither show exists without them.
Matt Armstrong has to be one of the next Grand Tour Presenters, surely? Mark McCann. Auto Alex and Possibly Billy Monger.
I'm thinking Mike, Maxwell and possibly both Hammonds
With all due respect, without Richard, Jeramy and James, there is no Top Gear and there is no grand tour. It won’t matter who Amazon tries to get to continue the grand tour, it will never be the same.
out of all the cars saved, the only one that i feel should truly be left in its show state would be the last ever... and thats saying something as my dad had a capri and i have some really fond memories of it, taking one tracking would be an experance. on the subject of who should host the grand tour next, obviously the only real awnser is no one it should only ever be the lads but if it has to come back i hope its some youtube names that get pulled into it, ones with history and chemistry that dosent match or rival the og's but brings a new level for the new show
Your videos are always inspiring and motivating for new achievements. Thank you for your creativity!🌹🏄🌍
Mike, Izzy and Jimmy B. The perfect no so grand tour trio imho.
Who should be the next grand tour trio? My answer, no one.. much like we shouldn't get a Hotfuzz2 and we shouldn't have had the letdown Topgear reboot.
Some things deserve to put to bed and immortalised in our minds
you need for the Amazon GT the 3 guys from CarTrek: Ed, Freddy and Tyler
Everyone knew he would keep this. Didn't have to hide it on the background of other videos. :)
Yess, I was hoping he would keep it.
Hopefully it will be at the next Drivetribe show
You, Maxwell and Izzy as the next three presenters of the Grand Tour
I think the AutoAlex’s lads do similar top gear stuff, maybe a couple of them 🤷🏼♂️
Ford Capri. Got everything I need. Except an exhaust pipe.
If you rebuild the Capri you should do a restomod with a modern Ford V6 Turbo aluminium block engine.
0:49 Jezza in the ninetees!
😭 HIS CAR AHHHH
Well done guys
I think you Mike along with the guys from throttle house could have a nice chemistry. Brett Goldstein would also be fun to watch.
Taylor from AutoAlex, Al from 6d Diesels, and Will from Top Dead Centre would be my pick for GT2. Whomever it is, I'd like to see cameos from the original crue - they can take the role of task settings, adjudicators, or "wise (uH) men"
We mostly cried for that episode 😢
Johnny Smith and Richard Porter would be excellent as the next Grand Tour hosts. Not sure about the third.
no
Never watched TG after the trio left and wouldn’t bother with a new GT. it’s about 3 friends who cannot be replicated
Says a man who never watched to find out. TG was close to finding that chemistry before the crash.
This one and Oliver are the 2 most important.
The remake of the grand tour is doomed to fail. The original trio cannot be replicated
Mike and Izzy have already been shown to have great chemistry together as a duo. So just a question of whether it’s Ben Collins or Marcus as the 3rd one. There’s potential there as they’ve all got chemistry on screen between them.

@@Levine93 I could see Izzy and Mike as 2 of the hosts, but I'm not sure it would have the same feel. I highly doubt that is how it would be though.
@@Levine93 maxwell ? if they keep the cringe to a minimum it'll be fine.
@@AKStovall It wouldn’t but they could change it up to suit their style. You could have race specials instead or road trips as opposed to just traveling across a country.

@@CaydeSmax Agreed! And I’ve just realised I’ve been writing his name wrong the entire time in these comments…
That yellow Capri is more legendary than anything than anything new Top Gear has ever done
I heard Jeremy saying that Top Gear should be hosted by 3 young gear heads, so same is true of TGT. The likes of Mat Armstrong and Freddy would be a great start.
The Stag is so pretty.
We all know that Mike, Izzy, and Maxwell should be the next trio
I think they should do another one. The post final tour.
It would be cool to see Ben Collins in the next grand tour.
Mat Armstrong, Taylor hetherington and the guy from saving salvage for the new grand tour
Harris, Tavarish, & AutoAlex.
As a kid in California we had a lemon yellow 1972 Ford Capri. It was a four cylinder. Unfortunately my dad crashed the car on the very day I got my driver's license.

The AutoAlex guys should take over the Grand Tour mantle.
Grand Tour should include Freddie Flintoff.
Yes, doors off. Mike, I agree!
all great things always leave to soon and leave you wanting more. Amazon should just let the grand tour rest in piece
Ricciardo, Vettel, Rosberg - if for example they were to be the new trio, I would be fine with that
Chris Harris with Alex and Taylor from the autoalex channel would be worth watching.
Capri track car will be amazing 👍🏻
Grand tour should be left.
It won’t work without the trio
Mat Armstrong Freddy and Ben Collins would be epic
matt is too cringe and a shill.
Four, three... The guys from SavageGeese plus the guys from Throttle House.
I knew he was going to keep that car
Amazon is going to want to do an international cast (think Fast and Furious) to appeal to a larger market.
Put the auto alex crew on the grand tour! I think those guys would be amazing with that kinda budget
I’d recommend they choose that Mike guy as one of the trio. Don’t remember his last name but I’m sure you do.
you should be one of the new grand tour presenters. maybe Caleb too...
A 3.5L Turbo V6 from an F-150 would be a very cheap and reliable engine upgrade.
We watched the Grand Tour for Jeremy, Richard. and James.
Any other hosts would be like New Top Gear or Top Gear USA.
I can see a new show coming from Lucy's tutelage under James, Izzy under Richard, and Kaleb... Just to see Kaleb leave the Cotswolds... but by no means would or could it be comparable to Andy Wilman and the Boys. It'll be its own thing.
a icon of my life i really if it was a king of boomer a classic in life and a great ford nerd myself
There cannot be a new trio. You can’t fake the chemistry that the three of them had on screen. Just make a whole new show.
Their chemistry is not the only formula.
My grandfather had the GT, traded it in for a Holden 5lt Statesman DeVille. I would have loves either, don't know where they went..😢
Finally, a video without MG sodding Rover, bagpipes, BMWs, or warcraft... 😂
You cannot replace the three amigos.
I think if anyone would stand a chance on keeping the grand tour going would be autoalex and the boys they will never beat original cast but would keep people watching and still have the funny side of it and already have a known face on UA-cam
No silver was harmed in the making of the final episode, and that nonsense was the only section that
let the show down for me 🤷🏻♂️
Tavarish, Ben Collins, Mike and Izzy - who says that there has to be only three presenters?
The only legit trio to host The Grand Tour in the future: Charlie Harper, Alan Harper and Herb Melnick!
just like top gear I wont watch it without those 3
I was hoping that the Capri would be saved.
As a Ford man, I'd have burned the Capri and kept the Stag and Monte Carlo.
Hear me out... What if this guy was one of the hosts of the Grand Tour's reincarnation? I'd watch that
I thought Jame's car was in better shape.
