      No longer a rumor, they're filming right now. The show is called ''The Grand Tour'' and airs on Amazon. I'm very much looking forward to it, because they now have a budget four times as big. Top Gear aired on the BBC, which is a license funded network. What this means is that all Brits, by law, pay a license fee to the BBC. This means commercial free TV is available to all. But it also means that the BBC has to limit the amount of money they can offer Top Gear, as they need to cover all interests, not just car fans... Amazon prime on the other hand does not recieve license pay, so they're free to broadcast whatever they want.

    it really doesn't matter what kind of car Jeremy Clarkson likes.... if he really really really loves a car, he does make ONE HELL of a review. it really shows how passionate he likes it, it makes the laferrari and 918 reviews bland. idc that it's slower, I'm in love with this car as well :)

    And this right here, is why the "new top gear" with Evans at the helm will never compare, the way that Clarkson speaks about these cars comes effortless, and with authority, and epic, without even trying, the fun and games of the three together is one thing. But it's these serious peices that made the show, let's hope the amazon offering brings something close. But I doubt it will be the same.
